Design & Features • Material: The body is made of Monogram Vernis (patent leather). The original color of the bag is a pale "Marshmallow" or "Beige," but this specific material is famous for aging into the warm, peachy-tan hue seen in the photo. • Straps: It features natural Vachetta leather handles. Vachetta is untreated cowhide that darkens (patinas) over time with exposure to oils and sunlight. • Hardware: Gold-tone brass hardware with a full-zip top closure. • Interior: Typically lined in color-matched leather with one zippered pocket and one slip pocket. Includes Louis Vuitton dust bag.
