You are looking at a near mint Dooney and Bourke Small Tack Shoulder bag in Classic Black and British Tan. This “Small Tack Bag” is a few inches larger than the beloved and highly collectible DB AWL “Marble Bag.” And just like the Marble Bag, this one has that authentic vibe to it, yet is so clean and so tailored looking, and has a nice dose of horse-person/equestrian appeal, too. It also has a very practical slip pocket in the back side with the duck patch.

What I did : I cleaned it all over, inside out with professional leather cleansing cream, slightly polished all the rough 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. Let me know if you would like it to be gift wrapped.

 

Conditions: 

This bag is in pristine condition, almost no sign of use. The bottom side has a tiny scratch mark on the british tan leather, photo 6 enlarge for detail. The leather feels very soft and smooth. All trimming/ piping are perfect, almost like NEW. Oder free. All the trim edge protective paint is still perfect, no crack or rip. The interior is clean and neat, no marks. The shoulder strap is neat and clean.

 

Dimensions : 

  • 25cm/9.75" (L) x 18cm/7" (H) x 9cm/3.5" (D) 
  • Strap-length total 120~130cm / 47~51" 
  • Strap-drop of 56cm/22” (adjusts shorter via 5 notches) - let me know if you would like some more notches, i can make additional "perfect size" notches for free.

 

History :

The “Small Tack Bag” is part of the vintage DB AWL Over and Under Collection (referring to its front closure), which is very similar to the DB AWL Equestrian Collection. It has that incredibly well-crafted look about it that is classic vintage Dooney: handsomely rugged, perfectly stitched, and just the right amount of curve to give it a feminine touch.
