The gold-tone kiss-lock clasp frames a softly curved silhouette in Celine’s signature Macadam canvas, its interlocking “C” pattern rendered in tan and beige textile. The absence of external logos and the gentle patina of the leather trim evoke the subtlety of late-1970s Céline accessories, equally at home on any wardrobe. Constructed in a compact coin purse format, the piece features a structured gold-tone frame with a tactile clasp closure, opening to a single main compartment lined in light brown leather. The Macadam canvas exterior is trimmed with smooth tan leather at the sides and base, while the gold-tone hardware is unmarked, in keeping with the house’s archival approach to branding during this period. This example likely dates to the Céline Vipiana era, c. late 1970s to early 1980s, characterised by the first introduction of the Macadam monogram and a focus on understated, functional forms. The absence of overt logos and the minimalist “MADE IN ITALY” stamp inside anchor the piece in a moment before the proliferation of modern branding, reflecting the house’s original commitment to discreet luxury. Condition: Fair — visible mark on exterior canvas, general wear to leather trim and hardware; interior leather shows light creasing consistent with age.
