Can any one of you experts help me out here on a bag that I saw on my 95 year-old aunt the other day. She loves anything Bottega Veneta and has quite a collection going on. She's quite fashionable, to say the least. I didn't ask her how long she had this bag, but it was a satchel in the ebano or black color (maybe) and it was on the smaller side, say 12 x 8 or so in the classic woven leather. The handle had a knot on each end and the strap looked like it was wrapped very tightly. It had a beige suede lining. Believe me, I know this was a real bag, and I was simply fascinated by the design. Can anyone help me because it was gorgeous on her cute little 4' 11" frame! Knowing her, I have a feeling that he bought it many many years ago. Thank you!!

It doesn't ring a bell with me. Is there any way we can see a photo? Sounds delightful!

God! I wish I had a picture! I'd frame it! My aunt only buys BV and Chanel when she travels. I hope she wills her accessories closet to me! She is adorable! I did try and research all over the internet but came up with nothing. She has Chanel purses from 30 years ago, so.......it could be vintage.
