Description from the seller
Few objects in the canon of late 20th-century luxury carry the cultural weight of a Prada nylon bag. This Tessuto handbag — bearing the iconic inverted triangle logo plaque and produced in Italy under one of the most storied names in Milanese fashion — is a piece that has moved from functional accessory to recognised design classic within the space of a single generation.
The body is constructed entirely in Prada's signature black Tessuto nylon: a densely woven, lightweight technical fabric that Miuccia Prada elevated from utilitarian material to luxury statement when she introduced it in the late 1980s. The fabric has an understated lustre and retains its shape with characteristic ease, giving the bag a clean, slightly tapered silhouette that widens toward the open top. The hallmark silver-tone triangular logo plaque — inscribed "Prada Milano Dal 1913" with the house crest — is positioned at centre front, riveted directly to the nylon body in the manner consistent with Prada's most collectible archival pieces. The interior is lined in black Prada jacquard fabric bearing the house's monogram pattern, with a "Prada Milano Made in Italy" rectangular enamel plaque inside, alongside a zip pocket and a small cloth interior tag numbered 35. The slim single nylon shoulder handle allows comfortable shoulder carry.
The generous, slightly trapezoid proportions offer practical daily capacity, accommodating documents and everyday essentials with ease. The all-black palette and technical nylon construction make this piece an effortless companion across both professional and casual settings — a hallmark of Prada's philosophy of intelligent, anti-decorative luxury.
Please note that import duties and taxes are the responsibility of the buyer and are not included in the item price or shipping cost. This item will be dispatched promptly upon auction close.
Prada's Tessuto nylon pieces from the 1990s and early 2000s are among the most consistently sought-after items in the contemporary pre-owned luxury market, recognised globally for their design integrity, durability, and enduring relevance to the house's identity.
