This lot features two vintage brown leather bags of varying styles and periods. The first is a heavy-duty, traditional satchel-style briefcase, likely dating from the mid-20th century. It is constructed from thick, heavy-gauge brown leather with robust hand-stitched seams and a sturdy top carry handle. The design includes a large front flap secured by two adjustable leather straps with metal buckles and a central metal lock mechanism. The second item is a compact, rectangular cross-body shoulder bag from the late 20th century, crafted from polished brown leather with machine-stitched seams. This bag features a front flap with a rectangular brass-toned flip-lock clasp and a long, adjustable leather shoulder strap.
Large Briefcase: 40cm (W) x 31cm (H)
Small Shoulder Bag: 18cm (W) x 22cm (H).
