1970s VALENTINO TIGER'S EYE LION HEAD GOLD BROWN IVORY SHOULDER BAG

This bag was bought in July of 2021. It has only been used twice. It was (and remains) in “Very Good, Vintage Used” condition. “This circa 1970s shoulder bag echoes Valentino’s superfluous stylings as the purse is decorated with an imposing lion’s head ornament intricately sculpted from tiger’s eye while a thin golden frame implies the lion’s mane. The exterior of the purse features a soft balance of earth tone colors of chocolate brown at the lower front purse panel, an ivory leather flap, and the bag gusset is of a camel brown. The strap is of a same camel brown and is attached by two rings at the top of the bag. A combination of simple color blocking and the sculpted lion head brings together a basic modern line with an outspoken blending of metal and gem textures. Measurements: Handle drop: 10 inches Length: 10 inches Height: 4 3/4 inches Depth: 2 inches This Valentino shoulder bag is made from color blocked leather and the interior is lined in a sangria red silk. On the back wall there is a red leather applique with the Valentino label that creates a pocket. The purse is in excellent condition with signs of mild use. High-quality vintage pieces like this are yours to live in and love while increasing in value every year. It’s never too soon to start collecting them, as an investment in your wardrobe—and in yourself.”
