1950s Cognac Full-Grain Leather Triple Frame Purse | Original Kiss-Lock Vintage

A remarkable mid-century leather purse from the 1950s, crafted from supple cognac full-grain leather and finished with an unusual triple-frame construction. The softly gathered body, warm leather tone, and sculptural metal frames create a refined silhouette that feels both elegant and distinctly of its era. We selected this piece for its rarity, exceptional preservation, and high standard of craftsmanship. The triple-frame design is a beautiful example of thoughtful vintage construction, while the fully leather-lined interior reflects the quality often found in well-made bags of the period.

The bag has been inspected, cleaned, and prepared for continued use. Measurements Width: 25 cm Height: 19 cm Depth: 9 cm Chain Strap Length: 97 cm How to Use A striking vintage piece that works beautifully for both everyday wear and special occasions.
