Bottega Veneta Padded Cassette Bag in Almond Intrecciato Lambskin - SOLD

 This is a 100% authentic Bottega Veneta Padded Cassette Classic Medium Sized Shoulder Bag in Almond Intrecciato Lambskin with Antiqued Gold Hardware.

RRP £3,630

As you'd expect from Bottega Veneta, this masterpiece of modernity combines voluminous, super-puffy, oversized woven intrecciato cushioning with ultimate class and incredible practicality.

Not delicate in the slightest, the incredibly finely grained lambskin hide has a robust glaze and the padded, 'pillows' have moulded, bonded edges ensuring a smooth, sleek and easy to maintain finish. Way more robust than you'd think, you can use with confidence that the quilt will never deflate and the leather will repel rain, scuffs and marks with ease.

Simple flap styling, sealing with a click-in fastener, the attached, adjustable shoulder strap with contemporary triangular buckle can be worn on the shoulder, across the body or tucked inside to carry as a statement clutch.

An easy to co-ordinate Sand Beige shade with apricot undertones, it will complete any outfit whether day or night.

Condition -  Very Good

Details -

Without a doubt this beautiful bag is stunning and on initial review appears in an Excellent condition throughout.

A beautifully bouncy form, it's colour consistent, all stitching is firm, hardware is excellent and inking (edge sealant) is unworn with only a couple of the minutest flex crackles to the LH side of the flaps back join, (completely invisible to the naked eye.)

No marks, scratches or scuffs just the normal gentle creasing to the hide as forms part of the design and the slightest darkening to the front flaps two corner points, (again barely there.)

The attached shoulder strap displays light impressions where the triangular buckle has rested.

The interior is entirely clean, comprising of an unlined, central compartment with smooth leather zipped pocket. It's only if you pull the lining of the zip pocket out can you note the linear discolouration along its base seam where the glue used in manufacture has darkened. Not sticky or deteriorating and completely unnoticable in use.

There is a twin, parallel diaonal fingernail scratch to the surface of the hide on the upper RH side of the interior flap. Location circled, shown close up and with the zoom.

Please note a very slight and pleasant perfumed aroma from the previous owner.
