Gucci Vintage Bamboo Top Handle Bag — Crimson Suede (Tom Ford Era)

Vintage Gucci bamboo top-handle in deep crimson suede. The color is rich and saturated, and the structure has that early-2000s balance Gucci did so well—compact without feeling too small and instantly recognizable without relying on logos. The bamboo handles are smooth with a solid feel, paired with gold-tone hardware that still has good shine. Both zipper pulls match in bamboo and move cleanly. The leather base gives it stability, and the metal feet are intact. Inside is Gucci’s early-2000s jacquard lining used during the Tom Ford era—clean, intact, and original to the bag. It’s a smaller, compact piece (approx. 10.2″ W × 7.9″ H × 3.5″ D) with room for the essentials Overall, it’s a well-kept vintage piece with strong color, great texture, and the bamboo details that define this era of Gucci design.
