Must de Cartier shoulder bag in red grained leather, with a coordinating leather strap, measuring 22 × 33 × 5 cm, in good used condition with some signs of wear.
Description from the seller
At auction we present a timeless luxury icon: a Must de Cartier shoulder bag crafted in the famous grained leather in burgundy. This model is one of the maison's handbag pillars, characterized by a pouch-style design with a front flap adorned by the large oval medallion bearing the embossed double “C” logo. The choice of visible-grain leather, compared to the smooth version, gives the accessory greater scratch resistance and a richer, more structured texture, perfect for sophisticated everyday use.
The interior reveals impeccable organization with several gusseted compartments that allow you to neatly divide your personal belongings. The lining is made in the characteristic burgundy monogrammed fabric, a detail of great elegance that echoes the brand identity. Inside there is a security pocket with a zip closure and the inevitable gold-tone metal plaque with the inscription “Must de Cartier Paris.” The coordinated leather shoulder strap is adjustable via a gold buckle, offering versatility for wear on the shoulder or as a crossbody.
Regarding its condition, the piece presents in good vintage condition, while showing natural signs of wear that attest to its originality and history. As documented in the detailed images, there are some scuffs and light abrasions along the lower edges and corners, where the color appears slightly lighter. Inside, the gold plaque shows signs of oxidation and the pull tab of the inner pocket reveals a loss of the original gilding. These details are common in vintage pieces and do not affect the bag’s structural solidity, which remains a piece of great stylistic authority.
