I suspect not many people are aware that Japan has many exclusive products produced under brand authorization. If you've traveled to Japan, you'll know that department stores are filled with unique souvenirs, not just the food items on the B2 level! On the upper floors, you'll find special authorized productions by various brands, unique to Japan and often not even available through the brand's main sales channels. For example, Celine authorized several Japanese textile companies in earlier years to produce various textile goods, including household items, which are incredibly practical. The selling prices were also very friendly, making them perfect for both gifting and personal use, a stark contrast to the pricing of brand boutiques! However, Celine's authorization contracts with Japanese companies have long since ended, so even if you visit Japan now, you won't be able to find them anymore... These are Japan-exclusive items that have been completely discontinued for many years, just like pre-owned bags! Each one is a rare find! As a small aside, the reason for these authorized products back then was that luxury brands began to focus on Asia. Japan's economy was booming, and it was likely the most "affluent" in Asia at the time. Therefore, many brands entering Japan made various arrangements in response to local culture. Among these, the Japanese gift-giving culture is extensive. As seen in Japanese dramas, people there give gifts frequently, without hesitation. Japan already had many factories producing products to meet various gifting needs, with mature technology and unique items. Thus, many brands signed authorization agreements with Japanese companies for self-production. These gift sets were typically sold only in department stores. Such branded gift sets were very popular in Japan, primarily for their impressive presentation. Having a "brand" name made them presentable for gifting to relatives, friends, or superiors. . . . ⚐⚑˒˒CELINE large square handkerchief. Each piece is unique and only one is available per style. Once sold, it's usually impossible to find the same one again! Most still have their original stickers (if present, they are shown in the photos). Some may be missing stickers, but all are brand new and unused, perfect for gifting or personal use. Sizes range from 45-55CM. Purchasing this as an add-on to a pre-owned bag order will be significantly cheaper. The add-on price is truly exceptional. Please contact me before ordering to adjust the price. Regarding handkerchiefs, I believe most customers in mainland China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan used them more frequently in childhood, resorting to tissues as they grew older. However, the Japanese handkerchief culture (yes... it has evolved from an item into a culture) is deeply ingrained from childhood to adulthood and has never changed! In Japan, whether it's children, adults, or the elderly, a handkerchief is a basic necessity in their bags, due to various factors, likely environmental consciousness, dignity, and politeness. You can find more details online; I won't elaborate too much. In short, if you live in Japan and don't have a handkerchief, you're likely not Japanese. Japanese handkerchief production technology is extremely high. Don't underestimate this small piece of cloth; upon closer inspection, you'll be amazed by the exquisite details! For example, double-sided embroidery in two colors, hidden embroidery, the use of subtly different colored threads to create a lustrous effect, gold and silver foil stamping, colored foil stamping, etc. There are also many material choices: some are soft cotton gentle enough for a baby, while others are made of breathable linen perfect for summer, drying quickly, etc. The patterns are not only intricate, but the details are such that even after many washes, the colors won't fade, and even the foil stamping won't lose its sheen! Many are as beautiful as works of art, suitable for framing as decoration. The most important point is that many of these techniques are unique to Japan. Even the more expensive silk scarves produced in Europe by the brand today don't have as many intricate details as a single small Japanese handkerchief. But you might ask: What can I do with a handkerchief if I don't use it for cleaning? The uses of a handkerchief extend beyond wiping your mouth or sweat; they can be used for decoration! You can hang them on bags or tie them around bags. This is a great habit for luxury and pre-owned bags, especially vintage ones. Their greatest value isn't the purchase price but their increasing rarity in the world. Therefore, using them should also involve a habit of protection. Hanging them on a bag adds a small decorative touch, and tying them around a strap can directly protect the most frequently used and easily worn areas, keeping them clean and preventing accidents. I personally experienced this once when someone next to me at a workshop accidentally spilled dye on their bag strap. Fortunately, I had the habit of tying a scarf on my strap! My bag was saved that time, although the scarf had an ink stain that wouldn't wash out... but I'd rather it be the scarf than the strap!! A handkerchief can also be used to adjust the length of an overly long strap (I have details on how to tie it). My most frequent use is for home decoration. A long time ago, I developed the habit of using large scarves/handkerchiefs to cover idle decorative items at home, primarily for dust protection. My home is very dusty, and items left in one place for two days will accumulate a thin layer of dust. When the cover cloth gets dusty, I simply take the whole piece to wash, which is convenient. Covering plain colored cloths or handkerchiefs can look a bit odd (like a house is unoccupied and covered)... so I've always had the habit of using scarves for covering. The uses for handkerchiefs and scarves are truly endless and very personal. In any case, having one or two extra small accessories like these isn't a problem. When folded into small squares and placed in a bag, they don't take up much space and can be used in any unexpected situation, even for wiping bags or people on a rainy day.

In the past, most pre-owned items were✦ handmade, with the warmth of craftsmanship rather than mass production. The artisan's skill was definitely much more delicate than machines, just as everyone loves products crafted by skilled artisans! However, today, the vast majority of processes are done by machines with minimal human assembly, losing the delicacy of the past. I think the simplest and most direct way to see this is to compare the monogram patterns of recent brand revivals with genuine vintage monograms. The level of detail in the monogram patterns alone is completely different. If you love monograms, you must look for pre-owned items! Truly! In terms of style, older eras were more✦ simple, classic, and timeless. Many new designs today are actually revivals of older styles. However, new items are priced higher than older ones. New designs are typically based on older models with added details or design changes. The final product always ends up being more complex (or strange......) than the older versions. I believe as we grow older, we understand one thing: the simpler, the more enduring!! As we age, our clothing choices tend to return to basic styles because the more basic, the more versatile. The quality of raw materials in older items is also better than in newer ones. If you understand✦ leather, you'll see it. Most materials in new items are inferior to older ones. This is mainly because the cost of high-quality raw materials is too high now, and the quantity is not as abundant as before. Earth's resources are diminishing... Furthermore, brands back then didn't have the "ubiquitous" presence of stores everywhere like they do now... Most customers had a certain income and certain expectations for the finished product. There wasn't the "fast fashion culture" of today; a bag was expected to be used for many years. The difference between new and old eras is clearly visible in✦ hardware. Many new hardware pieces oxidize and discolor after just one or two years, but older models usually don't. Besides the high-quality materials and meticulous craftsmanship, hardware from earlier eras was plated with real K gold! It's worth mentioning that Chanel Vintage is expensive for a reason; many of its clasps and chains contain real gold, certified by gold merchants! Therefore, even vintage bags from as early as the 60s and 70s, if properly preserved, can still shine brightly today. As for new items available now, from what I know of the brands, none of them have K gold in their hardware anymore, so they tend to oxidize easily. Many say that buying Vintage bags is a form of alternative investment because they rarely depreciate and tend to increase in value. This is because the number of well-preserved pre-owned bags on the market is decreasing, and each one that disappears is gone forever. Remember, each of them is a discontinued item. The number that exists in the world is all there is, so they will only become fewer, more expensive, and harder to find. Moreover, many brands periodically increase their prices, and each increase drives up the market price of pre-owned items. Or, if a brand releases a "reissue," the reference or similar styles of Vintage pieces will skyrocket in price! Adding to this, in recent years, Korean and Japanese celebrities have favored vintage items. Once a particular style is worn by a celebrity, its price immediately soars, truly soars. Because during that period, many people will frantically search for that style or a similar alternative, and the prices of those few styles will increase exponentially... Therefore, Vintage is truly a case of "buy early, enjoy early; buy late, pay more" (this is not an advertisement slogan... it's a truth in the pre-owned world...). This is my personal experience; I regret not getting into many series earlier... I can't find them, and even if I do, they come with a sky-high price tag... But the problem is, even if you know it's a sky-high price, you're forced to buy it because waiting will only mean a higher price (unless the condition is poor). I am often asked about bag maintenance (ᐢ.ˬ.ᐢ). I will include a small note with details inside the bag, so don't worry. My personal habit is to maintain them when I organize my closet during seasonal changes (so each seasonal change is a huge undertaking...|||). Actually, pre-owned bags aren't that troublesome. When you're new to it, you just need to get into the habit of regular maintenance and cherishing your bag. Once you form the habit, it's not difficult. Pre-owned bags are made of excellent materials. As long as you don't use them roughly and preserve them properly, they can easily last another ten years to be passed down to your daughter! Every pre-owned bag is one I love and have collected, so I hope you will love it too and be able to preserve it for years to come☪︎ *.。 ☾︎.*·̩͙ If you are interested in purchasing, please feel free to message me for details.
