The Swan Crossbody - Vintage Gucci Horsebit

This beautiful bag was originally a clutch, but I wanted to make her into a crossbody bag. I believe this was a cosmetic bag at one time, as Gucci normally made those with a Velcro strip at the top (think Sherry line).  Velcro is certainly not quiet, so I've removed it (see the small pinholes on the inside of top trim). I added brass eyelets to the front and then added brass O-rings and an adjustable leather strap to the bag (43-53inch).  The bag's structure is excellent, so it stays closed quite well. 

The interior is clean and easy to wipe out. I've shampooed the Horsebit material and didn't see any stains.  The leather has a "mottled" look to it, and is mostly brown with some darker marks in it.  The leather was cleaned and reconditioned and it's in excellent condition.  The edges have all been recoated, so this beauty looks brand new!!!

This is a nice medium sized bag that will hold a lot of things!  It measures W11 x H7.75x D4 inches.  

Please note:  I begin with vintage bags.  Although this one is in amazing shape, please make sure to view all pictures before purchasing.  This bag will come in a BBV dust bag and will automatically ship Priority Mail or UPS.
