The Junco Wristlet - Vintage Monogram in Brown
This adorable bag is made from an authentic Louis Vuitton Monogram Bucket Pouch. It's been thoroughly cleaned and is ready for a new owner!!
This bag is in really good shape, so I added some brown leather braiding to the top to give it some flair. The inside Vuittonite was sticky, so I've scrubbed it out, leaving a soft flannel interior. There is some blue staining at the bottom, but it is clean!!! The leather pull at the end was damaged, so I've added a gold D-ring to hold the wristlet strap. I've also re-edge coated the ends in brown to match the top braiding.
This little Junco measures is L 6.7 x W 3.9 x D 0.75" and is perfect for throwing a few essentials into (cards, lipstick, mirror) ... throw it in a larger bag, or carry it into the bar to give your outfit a fun flair!! My iPhone 14 pro fits in this, but there's not a lot of room for much else. ;)
This bag will be shipped with a dust cover (either organza or cotton).
Please note: This is a vintage bag, and will show some wear. I try to call out everything, but please make sure to look at the pictures!!
About Vuittonite: Prior to 1997, Louis Vuitton lined many of its bags with a vinyl-like material known as Vuittonite. It was used (and patented) by Louis Vuitton because its resistance to water makes it easy to clean. Unfortunately, when exposed to high heat or humidity, Vuittonite begins to deteriorate and peel away from the edges of the bag. Over time, it becomes increasingly sticky, forming a residue (which, in extreme cases, is black in color) that transfers to anything placed inside the bag. If your Vuittonite is starting to get sticky, try putting some talcum powder inside, lightly coating it. It works!!!
