Vintage leather tri-tone shoulder bag given a metal fringe makeover. One of a kind. No bag design is repeated.
Absolutely iconic piece, I was stoked to find this vintage leather bag. Photos don’t do it justice! Discovered in good condition, especially for it’s age. I added the metal eyelets (this was a MISSIONNN due to the thickness of the fabric!). Then added the steel fringe with stainless steel jump rings, chains, fork tines and hex nuts. The fringe is also really fun to play with and has a lot of movement and metal jingle.
Features:
Stainless steel chains, hex nuts and fork tines (from thrifted forks)
Metal eyelets
Stainless steel jump rings
Pockets: middle zip pocket then two tight open pockets either side of it.
Material:
No inner material tag information however I do believe this is genuine leather, in 3 colours. Potentially vintage cow hide with a gorgeous patina. Appears super shiny due to leather over-processing. Aging estimate: approx from early to late 90s.
Measurements:
24cm wide
13.5cm high (main bag, not including the handle height)
7cm deep (bottom)
Note: Thrifted components may have signs of previous use (scratches, dents, marks, patchy colouring etc.). I hand-craft these pieces in my garage so imperfections will likely be present. It is all a part of their charm!
