Balenciaga City in Raisin Purple with Giant 21 Silver Hardware - SOLD

This is a 100% authentic Balenciaga City Bag in Raisin Agneau with Giant 21 Silver Hardware.

Crafted from a supple, creasy and incredibly beautiful, vintage lambskin in a gloriously vibrant violet-purple shade, (slightly more plummy than Cadburys,) this fabulous City Bag shines like a jewel.

So rare to find with contrasting silver hardware, it's a treasure!

Please note this is the shorter, shoulder strap drop version.

Condition - Excellent 

Details -

Carried only once, it's colour consistent throughout. Nicely glossy with the aged, crackly agneau finish, there's no wear, marks, scuffs, scratches or detriment of any kind. (Anything in the photos is purely a light reflection.)

A naturally, very supple silhouette, you'll need to add in firm Felt Liner if you prefer the boxier look with these styles.

The two whip stitched top handles are well shaped, firm, unrubbed, all stitching is tight and inking (edge sealent) in place.

Hardware is excellent and detachable shoulder strap shows no use.

The interior lined in entirely clean black cotton with a deep, side zipped pocket.

The only point to note is the creasing and softening to the looped leather tassle that attaches the mirror, purely from being wrapped around itself inside the front pocket.

Made in Italy 2009
