Louis Vuitton - Louis Vuitton Monogram Alma PM - Sac à main

Description

This vintage Louis Vuitton Alma PM is a classic structured handbag crafted from the house's iconic Monogram coated canvas with natural cowhide leather detailing and gold-tone hardware.

The Alma is distinguished by its elegant dome-shaped silhouette, originally inspired by Louis Vuitton's heritage in travel luggage. The brown Monogram canvas body is complemented by natural cowhide leather handles, handle tabs and a substantial leather base.

Two rolled leather top handles provide comfortable hand carrying, while the double-zip opening follows the curved profile of the bag and provides convenient access to the interior.

The natural cowhide leather has developed patina and colour variation consistent with the age and previous use of the bag. Gold-tone hardware provides the characteristic Louis Vuitton finish.

The structured base helps the bag retain its recognizable architectural silhouette, while the approximately 31 × 23 × 14 cm dimensions provide practical everyday storage in the classic PM size.

The handle drop is approximately 8 cm.

The date code visible inside the bag is BA0917.

The combination of Monogram coated canvas, natural cowhide leather and the distinctive dome-shaped construction makes the Alma one of Louis Vuitton's most recognizable handbag designs.

The item shows signs of previous use consistent with its vintage and pre-owned condition and remains in good overall condition.
