Wow! Incredible find! Congrats on your new treasure
Oh....... What a find and a beautiful rehab!Enjoy that treasure.
Thank you! It's not a bag that I will use often but she is special and so I will feel special when I carry her!

Thanks!
And I know that $650 is a lot of money today but it was worth more back in the year 2000. I used a currency calculator to determine that the buying power of $650 in 2000 requires $970 today - so that really is a lot of money for such a small, quiet (quality) bag!
Thank you for all your help, you are amazing!
That bag is lovely, and what an amazing bargain! Glad it cleaned up nicely for you
Thank you! I am glad that I was able to extend the life of this little bag and make it my own. I look forward to carrying it!
Oooh...lizard!
This is my first genuine Lizard bag but I do have another Coach genuine reptile bag. It is the Parker Exotics Flap Bag 13417 made of genuine karung snakeskin. It was also made in Italy but it is not a limited, numbered bag, but that's why I already had the DYO Reptile Cleaner/Conditioner on hand to use on the little lizard bag.
The Parker bag is much more stylish and distinctive than my small, Brown Lizard Framed Bag, but there is space in my purse wardrobe for 2 rare, beautiful, genuine reptile, Italian-made Coach bags!

And thank you for your authentication and for finding the bag on the Wayback!
Actually my new to me bag won't be officially become vintage until 2020 when it is 20 years old, but that's only a few months away. But I know what you mean, some of my favorite bags from the last 20 years are now "old and out of style" but I don't care. I wear them because I like them!
