Condition: Excellent
Comments:
This unique handbag by the French based design house Paule Ka is a show stopper..
Reflecting glamour as seen on a Hollywood movie screen, but always set against an iconic Parisian backdrop, Paule Ka’s style breaks through conventional ideas and plays with contrasts, volume, symmetry, humour and seduction. The accessory collections express a timeless mood and yet are unique and unusual..
The bag features a leopard print design on the front and the body of the bag is made from a deep grey fabric. There is no need to worry about matching your silver or gold toned jewellery as the bag mixes the metals up with one half of the zip silver toned and the other gold..
The bag has double straps in a burnt orange shade of velvet and 'Paule Ka' is on one of the straps - again in mixed gold and silver toned hardware.
The bag has a zip detailing but actually this is just decorative as the top of the bag is worn open - the zips do close up as far as the straps though, so you still have the security of closing your bag almost all the way.
Purchase in Paris for €900, the bag is in excellent condition and comes complete with it's original dustbag. As always, further photos available upon request by emailing info@TheHandbagExchange.com and quoting the bag reference number.

Reduced in price..
Prada handbag made from pecary leather which is an extremely fine leather which resembles suede as it is so smooth to the touch but offers a more durable finish.
In a soft, almost dusty pink, this beautiful bag feels so luxurious due to the materials used. With contrasting top stitching, the bow detail to the front conceals the magnetic stud fastening which opens to reveal a deceptively spacious interior which is lined in the distinctive Prada lining in chocolate brown. There is one interior zipped pocket.
The Prada logo is discreetly placed at the back of the bag in the signature triangle.
Comes complete with Prada authenticity card and dust bag.
Condition: The bag has been lovingly used and there is a darkness at the corners due to wear. The pecary leather is a slightly different shade of pink on the exterior due to the elements. This in no way detracts from the chic lady like elegance the bag exudes and it is priced at this chic-on-omic price to reflect the wear.
