It's almost as though it flew in here on the wind. (that's a hint)
The bag was remarkably well preserved given it had been shipped across 3000 miles in vans of dubious safety.
Then came the "undressing" of the bag from its various layers of packaging. Thank goodness the spare bedroom still had some remnants of sunlight!
And finally, here she is! My midnight blue small kite tote! She's amazingly light on her own, and the leather is STUNNING. The double handles are incredibly well thought through in terms of how many different ways you can carry the bag. I will probably look into getting some kind of liner to give her a bit more structure. The leather is soft, and will definitely need it as time goes on. Can't wait to take her out!
Thank you to everyone who gave me advice and sent me to various SA's that were all lovely to work with.
