Louis Vuitton Speedy 35 in Mono
Condition: Vintage good, signs of wear expected with honest use. This piece predates 1982, so please do not expect a pristine item - however the item is beautifully made and still has lots of life left in it. The canvas is thick original Louis Vuitton canvas and the monogram is still bright. The leather piping has aged with a honey patina and some grazes that come with age. The handles are still in very good structural condition, however the leather does have some slight cracking. The interior has a few marks but there is no odour. The hardware has harline scratches and some discolouration. Please note the zipper has been replaced by Clare from 'The Handbag Restoration Company' - the zip pull, however is still the original. The padlock is missing its key. Please see images for full details.
Colour: Monogram with gold tone hardware.
Material: Coated canvas with leather trim.
Details: The Speedy 35 is an ideal travel bag. Originally created for travellers in the 1930s – the name refers to the era’s rapid transit – every feature of the Speedy’s design is iconic, from its unmistakable shape to the rolled leather handles and engraved padlock. Made in France.
