Named after the address of Céline's Parisian headquarters, the Hôtel Colbert at 16 Rue Vivienne, this modern classic features an archival-inspired design by French fashion designer Hedi Slimane. It is crafted from 'satinated' calfskin leather—a variant of calfskin leather "finished so as to have a smooth, lustrous surface resembling that of satin." Minimally styled, it features a cropped flap, a smartly divided interior, top carry handles and an optional shoulder strap for easy hands-free wear.
Condition:Excellent
Overall: The exterior leather is in excellent condition with several minor scratches and some scuffing to the bottom corner edges. The interior leather is clean and in excellent condition with, much like the exterior, some minor scratching. The handle has one faint spot of discolouring, but otherwise is in excellent condition. The hardware is in excellent condition with very light scratching consistent with use.
Accessories: Includes care pamphlet, lock plus keys, removable strap, dust bag.
