About the Item

This is an extraordinary and rare 1980s Italian evening bag, distinguished by its striking design and exceptional materials. The structured bag features a rich, deep brown velvet exterior, giving it a luxurious texture perfect for evening events. Its most captivating detail is the bold, sculptural brass hardware on the front, which includes two prominent, stylized cut-out embellishments that appear almost like whimsical jesters' hats or a unique logo, instantly capturing the eclectic spirit of 1980s fashion. The bag closes with a sleek, gold-toned clasp at the top and has a matching velvet strap, allowing it to be carried as a shoulder bag or clutch. This piece is a true statement accessory, embodying Italian craftsmanship and a high-fashion, vintage aesthetic. It's in remarkable condition for its age and would make a magnificent addition to any collection of vintage couture accessories.
