Description from the seller
Authentic The Bridge vintage Gladstone-style medical bag, handmade in Italy from premium full-grain vegetal-tanned leather.
Dating roughly from 1988–1995, this large travel bag represents one of The Bridge's most iconic designs. It draws inspiration from traditional doctor's bags and is renowned for its timeless Italian craftsmanship.
Built with a rigid metal frame and featuring brass hardware, original leather key and tag, the bag offers a wide opening for easy access to the roomy interior. The original logo-lined lining and the internal zipper pocket are intact.
The leather has developed a rich natural patina over decades of use, with beautiful color variations that highlight the character of genuine vintage leather.
