Is this related to Gucci?

[Mumum44]

I was cleaning out my closet and found an old, small, very well made, black leather shoulder bag with a horse bit on the front. It is marked Vivaldi Made in Italy. Everywhere I look it up, it defaults to Gucci. Does this have some relationship to Gucci? Otherwise I can find nothing. There are no numbers and the only other mark is a gold oval on the strap with the same Vivaldi name. Thanks for considering my odd question

How did it get to your closet?

A little over 10 years ago I owned a consignment shop. It didn't sell and I brought it home and never gave it another thought.

Vivaldi has nothing to do with Gucci but I'm sure the horse-bit style was heavily influenced by Gucci's icon.

Thank you. Why can't I find a reference to Vivaldi anywhere? It's like it doesn't exist. I only suggested a Gucci link because when I search Vivaldi, it always brings up Gucci. Weird!
