Description
Brand: Givenchy Material: Leather Exterior Colour: Black Hardware: Gold-tone hexagonal turn-lock clasp with 'GIVENCHY' and 'SACS A MAIN' engraving Style: Vintage structured top handle bag Dimensions: 13" W x 9" H x 4" D (approx.) Handle Drop: 7.5" (approx.) Interior: Zip compartment Closure: Turn-lock Givenchy's mastery of Parisian elegance extends across decades, and this vintage top-handle bag exemplifies the house's enduring commitment to architectural form and refined detail. The structured silhouette is rendered in black grained leather, a material chosen for its timeless versatility and ability to hold crisp lines. The hexagonal turn-lock closure, embossed with the Givenchy name and the phrase 'Sacs A Main,' anchors the front with a distinctly geometric flourish that marked the era's fascination with bold, sculptural hardware. Founded by Hubert de Givenchy in 1952, the maison quickly became synonymous with couture restraint and an innate understanding of proportion—qualities that translate seamlessly into the house's leather goods. This piece carries the hallmarks of mid-to-late twentieth-century design, when a handbag served as both functional companion and emblem of taste.
