Handbags

A gold-tone vertical bar clasp engraved with “CELINE” in serif capital letters secures the front flap, set against a frame of black grained leather with a subtle sheen. The boxy silhouette is compact and sharply structured, with double top handles that allow for both handheld and shoulder carry. No overt logo disrupts the exterior; the house signature is reserved for the hardware alone. This bag dates to the late 1980s–early 1990s, during the Céline Vipiana era, when the house’s accessories embraced gravitas and restraint. The clasp’s serif engraving, the absence of an accent on the “E,” and the choice of sturdy grained leather are all hallmarks of this period—an approach rooted in equestrian tradition but rendered without flourish or monogram. Red fabric lines the interior, revealing one zippered pocket and one slip pocket, with gold-tone hardware extending across the clasp and strap rings. There is light surface wear at the base and corners; the structure remains firm and the hardware bright. No accessories are included.
