Vintage black crocodile Handbag, Italian, 1980s

While lacking the branding of some of its contemporaries, notably those produced by Gucci, this elegant handbag is certainly a match for them in quality. Made from fine crocodile skin, soft with detailed patterning and carefully stitched (see image 3) it is of the traditional ‘bellows’ form with three interior compartments, one of them zip fastened (see image 7), and a strap handle. The fastenings of the handle and the flap buckle are in gilt metal of geometric almost art deco like designs and the interior is lined in leather.The work is Italian craftsmanship at its best and dating is probably to the 1980s after which these unbranded bags were no longer produced. An elegant accessory in its time, it would be an elegant accessory now.
