Vintage Delvaux exotic top handle 1954

Crafted from exquisite crocodile porosus leather for its 1954 autumn winter collection this piece of handbag jewellery was crafted by Madame de Dryver in a period, where - unlike today - not every woman was carrying a handbag. Fashionable to its core the bag displays incredible difficult craftsmanship in the architecture of its leather - its rounded edges and the inlayed - fully Delvaux crafted lock. Made to carry close to body as it was fashionable at the time, or modernly slung across the shoulder , this stunning bag sets you back in time - but in some way also does not. IT dresses beautifully modern in just t-shirt and jeans casually dangling on your shoulder. Having enjoyed a spa, having been authenticated with Delvaux - its craftsmanship and excellent condition - considering its 70 years of youth - it is alive and pumping - ready for its new journey.
