QF's New Year's Eve Iconic Quick Reveal....#1, It Was a Very Good Year

Presenting a surprise find. Kelly 28 in Gold (the color we now know as Noisette). My friend who spotted her told me she looked like Rouge H and she does look red at night, but she is Gold :biggrin:

My grandmother always told me that a lady never reveals her age....but this lady is about to turn 65. H stamp, confirmed by both our lovely bababebi and my resident craftsperson to be a 1952 Kelly "before she was called the Kelly".
May I note that this bag, while sporting a scratch or three, does not have a crack in it nor a single missing stitch. The hardware is brass and is so charming. She is my first truly "vintage" Kelly (I have a 1980 box Kelly) and I love her.

Another bag coming up soon in another thread....this one will be a bit of a unicorn :heart:
Gorgeous bag and your mythiques Phoenix scarf is a treasure as well.
Wow!
