The Albatross Shoulder Bag in Bronze Vernis
This beautiful bag might not have been created from a Neverfull, but it sure looks like a small version of one!! This bag was created from an authentic Louis Vuitton Bronze Vernis tote that was in great condition, but just not that functional. I cut off about 5 inches from the top, added top braiding and some rings to make it a shoulder bag. NOW it is ready to be used by a new owner!
The top is stitched by hand with brown leather lace. I added brass eyelets and rings so that you can can wear either the fun 6-strand brown leather shoulder strap, or the gorgeous brass ; IT COMES WITH BOTH, and both are adorable with it!! The brown leather shoulder strap is a30" long, while the brass chain strap is 18" long. This bag measures 14″ W x 9″ H x 4.5″ D. There's a gold magnetic snap closure, keeping your items secure
The outside vernis is in great shape, but does have a few small scratches and scuffs (see pics). The inside brown canvas liner is clean and in great condition!! Since I cut the top part off, I had to remove the interior pockets. You can barely see where the stitching was for the pockets.
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!!
