The Albatross in Saint Tropez America's Cup

This beautiful bag was created from an authentic Louis Vuitton Saint Tropez America's Cup Drawstring Noe Bucket.  All are individually numbered, this one being 3158! I've changed it a bit to make it more functional!

This bag is a gorgeous cayenne color, and will be perfect for fall!! The canvas is in great condition, but there is one small stain on the back that I couldn't get out.  The vachetta base had seen better days, so I've dyed it a darker brown and conditioned it.  There is some cracking that is barely noticeable now (see pics).  I removed several inches from the top of the bag, knocking it down from about 17" to 9" and then hand braided the top in a rich brown leather that now matches the vachetta. I added brass eyelets that hold the brass O-rings and a rope-like brass chain (kind of nautical, right??!!).  The 6-strand brown braided leather strap is the perfect addition to this bag, making it an awesome crossbody!

This is a big bag that measures 11″ W x 9″ H x 7″ D.  The large original interior zippered pocket has been sewn back in.  I didn't add a magnetic button snap, but can do that easily if you desire, just let me know after purchase!

For a video review of this bag, please see my IG/FB stories, or the highlight bubble called "The Albatross."

Please note:  These are vintage bags, and will show some wear.  I try to call out everything, but please make sure to look at the pictures!!
