NWT MARINO ORLANDI 2 TONE GREEN SHOULDER BAG PURSE TOTE

About the item…..

I have read that the most important staple in a woman's ward robe is her hand bag.  I would certainly agree with that!!  Put a bounce in your step with this gorgeous stunning remarkable bag - what a fun bag to carry!!!!!  Direct from italy in excellent to like new condition with original tags style 3121 made by hand in Italy (entirely by hand I believe), LG/XLG shoulder sling bag purse tote with front flap slide in secure snap closure, highly desired hidden front zip compartment, high polished gold tone equistiran style hardware, long detachable strap with 3 prepunched holes and 2 original snap tabs, and Marino Orlandi easy care crisp stripped fabric lining in a splash of 6 gorgeous colors (these fabric linings are unsurpassed!).  The leather is of the thicker glazed leather including the base!  Still has the new leather smell.  The darker leather is the more firmly glazed leather - the lighter green is the softer glazed leather.  Color - glazed 2 tone green.  The only one in this style in this color combination I have seen making it very rare and a one of a kind.   Oversized  Marino Orlandi logo is embossed in the leather on the front and each side.  Detailed reinforced stitching in sort of a copper in two sizes - one a larger stitch accented by a smaller stitch.  Very striking, elegant and rich looking-there is a lot of detail in this beautifiul bag and it can be carried year round!!!  A wonderful size bag that will pack a lot and has a beautiful drop and profile.   Opens wide for ease of use.  "Marino Orlandi MADE IN ITALY GENUINE LEATHER" is embossed in the leather label sewn inside the bag.  Excellent to like new condition, and really more bordering on new with tags.    

Has 5 compartments to keep you perfectly organized and you will have no stacking of your items in this roomy bag!  There is the hidden front zip compartment, an exterior zip compartment on the back, and the open spacious interior houses a zip compartment on the back and a leather cell phone pouch compartment on the front.   TJMax price on this bag if you could find one, was almost $275.00.

Measurements: approximately 14 and 14 inches long (bag partially stuffed laying flat measuring across the middle from side to side), 12 and 3/4 inches tall, and 7 and 3/8 inches wide.  The wide detachable strap measures approximately 65 inches.  Has five gold tone feet to protect the base and keep it sitting upright.   Sits perfectly upright when empty.  Has a beautiful drop and profile.  A very user friendly bag.   I believe the suggested retail on this bag is around $550.00 on up.  The color is strong and even throughout - any variance in color is due to shadows cast by the sun, clouds, or lighting.  At the top of the flap there is a minsicule area where the color is showing a light brown - Leather CPR is evening it out.  It would appear to be in the dying of the color rather than something was done to the bag and I have run across this before with their flap bags of all colors.    It is not noticeable and will give no problems whatsoever, and in no way affects the value or beauty of the bag.  Carrying their flap bags myself, I will note there is a tendancy to grab them by the top and pull them out of the car.  But I do not think that is what causes it.  It is the dying of the leather and the top of the flap is of course rounded.  I will go over the area and the entire bag a few more times with Leather CPR before it mails.  This is one gorgeous bag and is not a trendy bag that will come and go.   Marino Orlandi's colors are so saturated and their bags so well made, they will last a lifetime with proper use, storage, and maintenance.  Check out my guides on Marino Orlandi and how to maintain your treated leathers the easy way, and other guides you may find of interest.  Yes votes and suggestions are welcomed and appreciated.
