Vintage Louis Vuitton Monogram Papillon Bag

An iconic vintage Louis Vuitton Papillon, crafted in the House’s signature Monogram coated canvas with natural vachetta leather handles and trim. Its sculptural barrel shape has made the Papillon one of Louis Vuitton’s most recognisable silhouettes, beloved since its introduction in the 1960s and now firmly back in the spotlight.

The leather handles have aged to a rich honey patina, giving the bag the warmth and character collectors love. Easy to carry on the shoulder or in the hand, it holds your everyday essentials with effortless polish.

STYLING

Wear it on the shoulder with straight-leg denim, a crisp white shirt and loafers for timeless off-duty style, or with a slip dress and a long coat for an easy evening look.

• Vintage Louis Vuitton

CONDITION:

In a good preloved condition. As expected with an authentic vintage piece of this age, there is creasing, darkening and signs of wear to the vachetta handles and trim, and some general wear to the canvas. These details are part of its vintage character and should be considered when purchasing.

Please note the original zipper has been replaced with a YKK zip, hand-stitched with contrast tan thread. The zip opens and closes smoothly and is fully functional. This has been reflected in the price.

Please review all photographs carefully as they form part of the condition description. As this is a vintage, pre-owned piece, some age-related wear and signs of previous storage should be expected.
