The Junco Crossbody - Vintage Monogram in Black Fringe
Here is another Junco, this one is made from an authentic Louis Vuitton Monogram Pochette Cosmetic. It's been thoroughly cleaned and is ready for a new owner!! Perfect for a graduate!!
The Vuittonite (see below) was a mess, so I removed it entirely ... leaving the bare canvas similar to a speedy bag. The zipper is fully functional. The canvas is clean, however the edges and corners do show a tiny bit of wear. The leather end tabs were dyed black to match the strap. I've added black knotted fringe to the front, giving it a fun flair. I've also added brass D-rings to the back and attached a gorgeous black leather strap that's adjustable up to 51." I can switch out the chain to a different one if you'd like (even leather), just message me to get options!!
This little Junco measures is L 6.75 x W 4.5 x D 2.25" and is sure to be your next favorite bag! For a video review of this bag, please see my highlight bubble called "The Junco" on IG!
Please note: These are vintage bags, and will show some wear. I try to call out everything, but please make sure to look at the pictures!!
About Vuittonite: Prior to 1997, Louis Vuitton lined many of its bags with a vinyl-like material known as Vuittonite. It was used (and patented) by Louis Vuitton because its resistance to water makes it easy to clean. Unfortunately, when exposed to high heat or humidity, Vuittonite begins to deteriorate and peel away from the edges of the bag. Over time, it becomes increasingly sticky, forming a residue (which, in extreme cases, is black in color) that transfers to anything placed inside the bag.
