Thanks, D! Always good to see you! Hope you've been well
yes, thank you! She's pretty stunning! I know, right!! Kind of unbelievable!! Thank you so much for such a nice comment!
Thank you!! Hahaha! I have a visual of you sitting with all your Le Dix Nappa bags looking for the one that has a stick loose in the lining! (It would be totally worth it!! Haha) thank you[emoji4]
You've scored the mother lode!!!! WOW-JUST-WOW!!
I know!! It's crazy!! I'm telling you...I don't do reveals or solo bag posts, but honestly, she was too great of a find NOT to share!! Thanks, Ceejay!!
Wow! FB sample--out of this world!! Congrats!!! Thanks for sharing this incredible find 
the leather looks supernatural, you can just kerplunk your CP right through the front pocket hehe!

This is such great piece, I'm glad you found it, or it found you!
On the inside, you may see a rectangular outline around the zipper where a square of matching leather was glued to make the pocket "real".

Incredible! And I'm so happy she found her way to a home that will treasure her. Congratulations
Thank you! She will absolutely be treasured
BIG CONGRATS!!!
Condition looks awesome considering it's already 15 years old! I always love FB hobo, she is the one who made me acquired my Men's Day & Day!
And yours ....... is a winner!
Thanks, lady!! The FBH is such a special bag and this little bag is truly a showstopper! The condition is amazing!! You can tell that she's been carried from her strap, but there's not a single mark on her body!! Pretty fantastic shape for a 15 yo bag that is made of the softest leather I've ever felt!!
Wow! FB sample--out of this world!! Congrats!!! Thanks for sharing this incredible find
Thank you!!! Her leather is SUPERNATURAL! Perfect word!! Haha!! Yeah, my FC was the closest 'item' laying around without me having to go get something for a cool pic!
Although, a Coin Purse would have probably worked better! It was a bit big and looks slightly awkward looking back!I like that!! She found me
Thank you so much! Yes!! You are correct...she indeed has a faint line of glue where a "real" pocket would have been attached. I wonder how long it stayed glued on there! haha And yes, that makes total sense!! Wish I had the square of leather...maybe if I do some back research, just maybe. But doubtful...haha.
Thank you so much!!
Thank you!! So much appreciated
Haha! I know, right! Thank you!
Thank you!! I bought her from just a regular seller and from what I'm told it was from a private estate liquidation...just a lucky day!!
First, what a find! That's like, one in a gazillion. Secondly, it looks to be in fabulous condition and looks buttery soft. I mean like melt-in-your-hands soft! Thirdly, thank you for sharing with us and taking such nice close up photos in doing so.

Thank you for such lovely complements about my bal & photography! That really put a smile on my face and is very much appreciated!
She is 100% melt-in-your-hands, buttery soft and the inside is out of this world, make-your-head-spin-soft!! It's pretty unimaginable. Thank you again!Thank you so much! I agree!! She does. She belongs in a Bal Museum for sure! Maybe I'll put a pic on IG and tag NG
& see if he has any comments!!! haha Social media gives us such access these days!! Thank you, so much again for the lovely comments. She's a really special bag...
