{"product_id":"celine-36x34x14-strong-peeling-inside","title":"Vintage Celine Leather Tote Bag Brown Silver c. 2000s","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe first impression is of a rich chestnut brown leather, rendered in a clean, architectural silhouette that speaks to Celine’s quietly assured minimalism of the early 2000s. Smooth-grained panels are tailored into an upright tote form, the supple leather gaining gentle structure from precise seaming and subtle piping along the edges. Silver-tone zipper closures secure both the main compartment and a long exterior pocket, their hardware reflecting Celine’s commitment to discreet, functional luxury — notably, this piece bears no visible logo, a rare gesture in an era dominated by overt branding. Designed during the interregnum between Michael Kors and Phoebe Philo, this tote encapsulates the brand’s Parisian ethos: understated, utilitarian, and elegant, with a focus on material excellence over embellishment. Founded in 1945, Celine built its legacy on refined leatherwork, pioneering ready-to-wear accessories for the modern woman long before minimalism became a fashion mantra. The interior is lined in tonal textile, though notable peeling to the lining is present throughout — a common occurrence for vintage bags of this era and material. The base corners display light rubbing, while the handles remain sturdy and well-shaped, ready for another chapter of daily use.\u003cbr\u003eModel: Leather Tote Bag\u003cbr\u003eEra: Early 2000s\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Fair — strong peeling and deterioration to interior lining; exterior leather shows light rubbing at corners; silver-tone zippers fully functional\u003cbr\u003eMaterial: Brown smooth-grained leather with tonal textile interior, silver-tone zipper hardware\u003cbr\u003eColour: Chestnut brown leather exterior with matching textile lining, silver-tone zipper hardware\u003cbr\u003eDimensions: W 36 × H 34 × D 14 cm\u003cbr\u003eMade in: France\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Celine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53304831246664,"sku":"P16520S","price":200.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0811\/5866\/8616\/files\/IMG-5090_47251ee1-ba47-4e48-a78e-eb5f4cf13996.jpg?v=1781622584","url":"https:\/\/seconddonk.com\/en\/products\/celine-36x34x14-strong-peeling-inside","provider":"Second Donk","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
