Loewe box calf wallet -YELLOW(⁎⁍̴̛ᴗ⁍̴̛⁎), 100% authentic second-hand handmade Spanish product from around 80-90s!
In addition to second-hand bags, there are also second-hand wallets. Once you enter the second-hand pit, you will continue to evolve! Constantly "medium-age" the little things around me.
Just like a washi tape person will become a sticker person, then a handbook person, and finally evolve into an all-around stationery person (ok, obviously I am a stationery person too)
To be honest, if measured by size, the price of second-hand wallets is not much higher than that of second-hand bags, such as LOEWE!
Its second-hand bags have always had a high value for money, with good quality and low prices (except for some rare series... Snake Bone Museum...).
Therefore, for the price of a good-quality wallet, you can easily buy a bag of average quality, and the price is about the same.
But wallets are really worth spending more money than bags, at least I think so... because wallets are really something you use every day,
In addition to daily bags for work, most of them are chosen to be used every other day or to match the mood with clothes.
But wallets are rarely changed frequently? At least few people change them according to their clothes like bags.
Usually a wallet has been used to the end or has been used for about the same period and wants to be replaced! So wallet is actually one of the most personal items.
In fact, I started paying attention to my wallet a few months after I started using second-hand bags. First, long clamps were used in the past.
However, those small armpit bags have limited space, and after adding a long clip, the space is even less and there is not much space to put in.
The bag is bigger than the sky! I simply changed to short clips. Modern new models are expensive but the leather is not ideal, so I keep eyeing middle-aged models.
Secondly, some of the inner parts of second-hand bags are relatively fragile, such as the leather. After experiencing the baptism of various owners and time,
No matter how well protected it is, it is actually much more fragile than before. It is easy for things inside to scratch the inside without you knowing it.
The most common ones are the keys placed directly in the bag, or the wallet with metal decoration. These metal edges/tips will directly scratch the interior.
The scars will not be visible for a short period of time under regular use, but the scars will appear after a period of time when left idle.
The situation is that it is common to see that the leather of second-hand bags is full of flower marks and powder loss. Most of them are traces caused by the contents of the bag.
So I usually have a drawstring bag, makeup bag or pouch to put keys, wallet, card holder or something, throw it in and put it in the bag.
It seems a bit troublesome, there are bags within bags (how many bags should a woman have?), but in fact it's nothing if you get used to it.
On the contrary, I feel that once I open it, I see it is neat and easy to pick up things on the street. I can grasp what is in the small bag with one hand.
However, the capacity of some bags is really too small (...I understand the waste of small waste bags...but they are really cute),
Small bags like armpit bags don’t have a lot of space. In these cases, there is no way to realize a bag within the bag, so the only way is to put items directly.
Therefore, I prefer to choose wallets with not too hard leather and not too many metal decorations, so that they can be placed directly without causing any scratches on the inside.
My top recommendation is definitely Loewe. Needless to say, the quality of their leather is high. Anyone who has used it will never go back.
This zippered small wallet I have now is very good. The style is simple and classic, the leather is soft and light, and the wallet is thin!
It can basically be used to put change or small items. The point is durability! This one is calfskin.
Leather similar to BOX CALF but not as easy to damage as BOX CALF. Cowhide represents durability and resistance to violence!
⚐⚑˒˒The wallet is in very good condition, it’s almost a beauty grade! And it’s rare that it has color, it’s a very energetic yellow!
It is BOX leather with NAPPA lambskin inside. The leather is in excellent condition and has a natural light feel. There is absolutely no discoloration, color bleeding, or staining!
There are no scratches or indentations on the surface of the coin purse, it’s very beautiful! There are no other obvious marks/flaws on the edges or corners.
The lining is sheepskin with only minor signs of use, and the zipper is normal. There is a very low-key embossed word LOEWE on the outside.
There is LOEWE LOGO and origin mark inside. Low-key and unobtrusive style, super resistant to dirt.
The small wallet has only very slight signs of use overall. It is rare that it is not black and is in excellent condition. It's lightweight, and most importantly, it's cheap.

The shop owner likes second-hand bags mainly because the materials of the old era are much better than the modern new ones.
In the past, most of the processes for second-hand products were handmade. In the past, there were not a lot of machines, only the warmth of handwork.
Craftsmen's craftsmanship is definitely much more delicate than machines, just as everyone likes products made by master craftsmen!
However, nowadays most of the processes are made by machines and combined with a small number of hands, and the previous meticulousness has been lost.
I think the simplest, most direct and easy-to-see method is to use the new versions of presbyopia reproduced by various brands in recent years to compete with the real presbyopia of the old era.
Just the level of detail in the presbyopia pattern is completely different. If you love presbyopia, please look for second-hand products! real!
In terms of style, the old ones are relatively simple, evergreen and attractive. In fact, many new models nowadays are copied from old models.
However, the new model is priced higher than the old model. The new design is usually based on the old model, adding details or changing the design.
The final product will always be more complex (or weird...) than the old version. I believe everyone will understand one thing more and more as they grow up,
The simpler it is, the longer it lasts! ! As you get older, even your clothes will return to basic styles, because the more basic they are, the more versatile they are.
The raw material quality of the old model is even better than that of the new model. As long as you understand leather, you can see that most of the new materials are inferior to the old model.
In fact, the main reason is that the cost of high-end raw materials is too high and the quantity is not as large as before. The earth's resources have become less and less...
In addition, none of the brands back then had branches around the "bad streets" like today... Most of the customers had a certain income.
There are certain requirements for the finished product. In the past, there was no "fast food culture" as it is now. One bag was expected to be used by customers for many years.
From the hardware, we can clearly see the difference between the new era and the old era. Many new hardware bits will oxidize and change color after one or two years of use.
But older models usually don’t. In addition to the high-quality raw materials and careful technology, the hardware in the earlier years is plated with real K gold!
I have to mention that Chanel Vintage is reasonably expensive. Many of her buckle chains contain real gold and are certified by gold dealers!
Therefore, many Vintage bags dating back to the 1960s and 1970s can still shine brightly today as long as they are properly preserved.
As for the new models that can be bought now, as far as I know, none of the hardware in the brand contains K gold, so it is generally very easy to oxidize.
Many people say that buying vintage bags is actually an alternative small investment, because basically the ones that rarely drop in price will only increase in value.
Because there will only be fewer and fewer second-hand bags of good quality on the market, one by one. Remember, each of them has been discontinued.
There are only as many as there are in the world, so the number will only become less and less, they will become more and more expensive, and they will become more and more difficult to find.
Moreover, many brands will increase their selling prices every once in a while, and each increase will drive up the price in the second-hand market.
Or if the brand launches a "re-engraved model", the price of the vintage reference model or the same phase or similar style will rise sharply!
In addition, in recent years, Japanese and Korean artists like to use vintage products. Once an artist uses a certain model, the price immediately skyrockets. It really skyrockets.
Because for a period of time, many people will be frantically looking for a model or a replacement model, and the prices of those models will increase exponentially...
So Vintage is really about buying early and enjoying it early. Buying late will increase the price (this is not an advertising slogan...it is a truth in the medieval world...).
This is my personal experience. There are many series shop owners who are also frustrated and have fallen into the trap... If they can't find it back, even if they can, they will pay a sky-high price...
But the problem is that even if you know that the price is sky-high, you are forced to go for it, because waiting for the next one will only be more expensive (unless the quality is poor).
I am often asked about the maintenance of bags. I will attach a small note inside the bag with details, so don’t be afraid.
My personal habit is to take out the cabinets for maintenance when I change seasons (so it’s a big project every time I change seasons...|||).
In fact, second-hand bags are not too troublesome. When you first get started, you just need to get used to regular maintenance and love tin bags. As long as you change your habits, it is not difficult.
The materials used in second-hand buns are inherently excellent. As long as they are not used roughly and are properly stored, it will be no problem to leave them to my daughter for another ten years!
I collect every second-hand bag because I like it, so I hope you will like it too and hope to keep it☪︎ *.
