This is a very striking snakeskin handbag in very good condition by Jane Shilton. It does not fall into the excellent or above category because it has had use and because the black leather back of the clutch has surface wear resulting in some loss of the shiny surface.However, despite having had more use than most of our handbags, because it is is clean and very on trend at the moment with the shops full of faux snakeskin we thought it was worth listing and as it is obviously a vintage bag a little wear is to be expected. The snakeskin on the front despite being a little rumpled is in excellent supple condition with the gilt frame and clasp still in very good condition. The black leather covered top bar is in excellent condition and the leather on the back is as previously described. The clutch is lined in fabric with the Jane Shilton logo and is clean although a little creased from use and the odd small mark but no major stains or damage. There are two lugs to attach a gilt chain if required but there is no chain with the bag.
A super stylish, iconic 70s little clutch, very striking and genuine snakeskin vintage, at a price where you needn't be too precious about it, in a size large enough to accommodate all essentials.
It is 11" x 7"
