RARE Vintage 1980s ART-TO-WEAR METALLIC APPLIQUÉ LEATHER BAG

RARE 1980s statement handbag - one of the bags you don’t see twice ✨🖤 Stunning, rare piece of 1980s wearable art! This unbranded artisan boutique bag features a buttery soft black genuine leather base topped with layered, overlapping panels cut into organic leaf shapes. The metallic leaf appliques are finely embossed with veining details in high-contrast shades of brilliant gold, bright silver, and gunmetal pewter.

Gives a gorgeous avant-garde, eclectic, and retro-glam vibe.
