A wonderfully distinctive vintage handbag from Leonard Paris, combining the house’s unmistakable bold graphic aesthetic with luxurious materials and impeccable Italian craftsmanship.
Crafted in Italy, the bag features alternating panels of rich printed velvet and textured leather, creating a striking patchwork effect that feels both elegant and playful. The signature Leonard print, often compared to the vibrant glamour of Pucci, introduces flashes of vivid orange, yellow and fuchsia against a black velvet ground, while the textured leather panels add beautiful contrast and depth.
The structured frame is finished with polished silver-tone hardware and a detachable oversized acrylic chain handle, allowing the bag to be carried elegantly in the hand or on the crook of the arm. Opening the classic kiss-lock clasp reveals a vibrant fuchsia satin lining, a joyful burst of colour that perfectly complements the exterior design.
The exterior remains in fantastic vintage condition. Inside, there are signs of wear to the satin lining that are consistent with age and use, but they do not detract from the beauty or functionality of the piece.
This is a handbag that effortlessly elevates an outfit. Perfect styled with relaxed tailoring, a simple black dress or crisp white linen, it brings a bold pop of colour and unmistakable designer character to summer events, cocktails or evenings out.
