Vintage Chic Style 1970 Engraved Leather Bronze Metal Shoulder Bag$43.99
A WONDERFUL CHIC 1970's VINTAGE LEATHER SHOULDER BAG.
MADE OF THICK LEATHER THE BAG IS EMBOSSED WITH AN OWL ON THE FRONT FLAP.
HEAVY BRONZE METAL HARDWARE , TWO METAL RINGS ON THE SIDE FOR THE THICK LEATHER SHOULDER STRAP AND A FRONT METAL BRONZE LATCH.
THE BAG IS STITCHED WITH LEATHER CORD. THE CORD HAS BROKEN OFF, OR THE ORIGINAL OWNER CUT IT SHORT ON THE FRONT SIDE, PROBABLY TO FACILITATE PUTTING A HAND INSIDE THE BAG WITHOUT HAVING TO OPEN THE FLAP.
I DON'T THINK IT NEEDS TO BE REPAIRED BUT ANY SHOE REPAIR SHOP SHOULD BE ABLE TO IF WANTED.
THE BRONZE METAL HARDWARE DOES HAVE SOME PATINA FROM AGE AND THE LEATHER ITSELF HAS MARKS, ETC FROM NORMAL VINTAGE USAGE BUT NO MAJOR FLAWS OR DAMAGE.
THERE IS A BLACK MARK ACROSS THE OWL'S CHEST BUT I THINK THAT IS PART OF THE ORIGINAL DESIGN.
MEASURES: 10" HIGH - 25" WITH STRAP. 11" WIDE AND 4" DEEP AT THE BOTTOM OF THE BAG.
