The exaggerated intrecciato weave and calfskin hues are what make Bottega Veneta bags truly stand out. Top-quality leather, elegance, and fine craftsmanship are the hallmarks of BV. The intrecciato weaving itself is painstakingly time-consuming, taking one craftsman days to complete. All this tells you why Bottega Veneta bags are considered works of art. This vintage Bottega Veneta shoulder bag with the intrecciato weave is from early 2000s. That was actually before Bottega Veneta bags had labels with serial numbers. However, I had it authenticated by another high-end vendor, and a close examination of the calfskin and workmanship definitely confirmed that this bag is the real deal. A current model of a small intrecciato bag sells for over $3,000.00. But because I can't provide a certificate of authenticity, you can enjoy it now for a fraction of that! Handcrafted in Italy, this bag is just the right size for essentials. It also has an internal zipper pocket for smaller valuables.  Excellent pre-owned condition, particularly amazing after more than two decades. Approx.
