Hi ladies, I'd love to see pics of vintage bags too! I don't know much about most vintage styles, but I do love the Bonnie Cashin Coach bags! 'm posting pics of my one vintage bag that I've been too ashamed to post so far for fear of getting labeled a Purseforumer with no taste :shame: But it's one of my favorites, a tooled leather bag from the 50s or 60s I'd guess that I use frequently now that the weather is getting warmer. The best part - "Betty"!
Betty MAKES that bag. Rock it.
Hi I will sent you a picture as soon as it arrives, and i am still looking all the time for sites with well priced vintage hermes, at the moment I would keep checking on the website of vintage skins, they get them from time to time and they sell immediatley.
I am talking about Hermes alligator from the 50's and 60's, the bags are just beautiful, timeless and so well made they still look new (provided the owner has looked after it)
The find of the lucille de paris was a one off fluke, but there is a great little webite legacy-nyc-com that has a couple of lucilles bags at reasonable prices and some other gorgeous vintage bags - leather and some fur - that dont have designers names attached to them and are really inexpensive and they have the wow factor?
Cheers from Australia
Hi, check eBay first where most vendors buy their inventory for resale. Here's one in crocodile from the 60s for $2,500: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Her...ags_Purses&hash=item56486dab59#ht_6187wt_1113
At the moment, there are also half a dozen leather ones in the price range $800-$4,000 depending on condition, leather and age. Here's the brown one for $800: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Authentic-V...WH_Handbags&hash=item1e66598d3b#ht_2324wt_902
Malleries is a reliable source with the largest variety of vintage Hermes bags. Here's the alligator for $3,900: http://www.malleries.com/vintage-hermes-black-alligator-handbag-i-55936-s-2618.html and 3 leather bags for $1,895: http://www.malleries.com/vintage-hermes-1960´s-black-leather-handbag-i-55953-s-2618.html
Hope it helped
I found this vintage Koret bag for $4.50 at Savers and the cool thing is that this bag has a surprise hidden feature! You can see more pics at the links below:
