Rating: Good (Vintage) | Beautifully preserved & fully functional

This piece presents beautifully and remains fully functional. The clasp closes securely, and the clutch holds its shape beautifully.

As expected with age, there is light rubbing to the exterior and edges, minor interior marks, and gentle color variation beneath the flap (not visible when worn). There may also be light hardware impressions, consistent with careful vintage use.

Professional restoration: The clasp has been expertly restored in line with the original design by Maroquinerie Parsac Paris (Hermès specialist), ensuring secure and reliable closure.

Priced accordingly to reflect its vintage character and rarity.

Inclusion

Hermès dust bag, original French auction house purchase receipt (provenance documentation), and Parsac Paris restoration receipt.
