I personally am obsessed with ALL British Tan combo, and am using this exact little purse myself :-) Well, just happy I found another one exactly like mine so here you go, adopt this little sweetie :-)
Dooney and Bourke made this style in 16 colours back in the early 90s. People sometimes mix up this Khaki colour with Ivy green but this one is more earthy and closer to the brown side of the line. It gets a bit more of the vintage feeling with the almost perfect stunning brass hardware.
The Mini bag is the smallest (check the dimension below) in the Cavalry Collection. And this bag looks exceptionally awesome with so many boho chic styles. It's a very rugged, well-made leather pouch and the leathers used are so thick and firm. Plus, its colour scheme makes for year-round use (and makes it very collectible).
What I did : I cleaned it all over, inside out with professional leather cleansing cream, slightly polished all the edges with leather protection cream in the same colour and a smooth almond oil cream to keep it's shine. All solid brass hardware has been polished. * You will receive this bag with care, shape support padding and sealed in plastic bag and it will be shipped in a sturdy box. This handbag will be shipped with tracking number.
Conditions:
This Belt Bag is in what I consider to be EXCELLENT vintage condition. It has not seen much wear at all. Please inspect the photos carefully. It does show wear but really little. Its British tan smooth leather is still bold and bright, having yet to develop a patina. All the stitch work is intact, tight and looking clean. No Oders detected. Zero verdigris found. Interior is neat and clean. No splits/breaks/cracks along any of the piping.
Dimensions : -
15cm/6" (L) x 11.5cm/4.5" (H) x 5cm/2" (D) -
Original Leather Strap-drop: 68cm/27" (detachable, but not adjustable)
History : Cavalry refers to soldiers on horseback. They usually carried a cartridge pouch on their belt. It is this item that the Dooney & Bourke Cavalry Body bag was modeled after. The Cavalry Collection was originally drawn from a diagram of an ammunition pouch discovered in the archives of the U.S. Military Academy at West Point. Its classic lines, brass closure, and embossed USA still carry an air of authority.
