Louis Vuitton Babylone Shoulder Tote from 2000

This 2000 Louis Vuitton Babylone is an archival, discontinued shoulder tote designed to seamlessly transition from business meetings to weekend shopping. It is celebrated for its structured, semi-oval trapezoid silhouette that holds its shape beautifully even when empty.  Crafted from iconic, heavy-gauge Louis Vuitton Monogram coated canvas, known for its exceptional durability, water resistance, and scratch-proof nature. Framed by a solid, thick oval natural cowhide Vachetta leather base border that protects the canvas structure. The bag features an even, warm honey-toned patina.  Outfitted with dual flat, integrated Vachetta leather shoulder straps that extend down the face and back of the tote. They are anchored securely by gold-tone metal loop rings. Features a continuous, smooth-gliding gold brass top zipper track to keep all interior contents completely secure.  Please note: the outside of the shoulder straps have patina’d into a beautiful honey color. The inside of the straps haven’t patina’d evenly so they are lighter.  There is a small water mark on one of the straps.
