Saint Laurent YSL Cassandra Top Handle with Strap in Storm Grey Calfskin & Suede - SOLD

This is a Brand New* 100% authentic Saint Laurent YSL Cassandra Top Handle with Strap in Storm Grey Smooth Box Calfskin with Suede and Antiqued Gold Tone Hardware.

RRP £2,740

An elegant, structured, envelope flap satchel crafted from a firm, smooth 'box' calfskin with velvet textured suede front panel.

A beautiful, fog-grey toned grey with parma undertones, it's such a stunning colourway.

An ingenious pivoting design to the front YSL lock, you just gently push to one side to open and a handy rear slip section, two internal compartments and slip pocket, all lined in soft, black calfskin.

 "Saint Laurent’s Cassandra bag is an exquisite celebration of the Maison’s foundational aesthetic: fiercely elegant yet inherently coquettish. The clean-lined accessory shares its name with the artist Adolphe Mouron Cassandre, who in 1961 composed the iconic YSL logo by artfully combining the initials of the label’s founder – the very same one that punctuates the front flap of this bag."

Details -

Only removed from packaging for inspection and photos, it's just as left Saint Laurent. 

The front velvet suede has an incredibly fine nap and the pile will brush in different directions as soon as handled, (these are not marks).

The reason for the *notation is due to two issues present from construction. One is a miniscule, dark dot to the rear, upper RH side of the bag, (see location circled and shown with the zoom.) The other is a slight smudge to the texture of the inking, (edge sealent) to the rear, LH corner curve as is often found on these hand painted, craftsman made pieces. Neither visible without the closest of inspections and not significant enough to fail YSLs' Quality Assurance process.

Made in Italy.

(Please note, all items are handled for inspection and photos and are pre-owned, though condition may be New.)
