Vintage Hermès 1970s Quito Black Box Calf Leather Bag

 The Tanpopo says

I will just have to scream that I got extremely lucky finding this beautiful bag.

The touch and feel on the luxurious leather from the 70s', with beautiful luster on an vintage box calf leather that can not be re-create.
It has to go through this amount of time to get to this state.

This bag has NOT been re-dyed or processed. In its original form, and that's why the leather feels so great on hand too.

The geometric gold hardware designs are absolutely stunning.
Overall impression of this bag is quiet luxury, no huge logo anywhere but YOU JUST KNOW this is a luxurious piece.

What's so cool about this is that it is EXTREMELY rare to find now, compared to their other more "popular" vintage models, and that you can still spot this bag on Hermes' web site (Repair service page).
You barely find this in the resale market at all. 
It even comes with original dust bag!

The overall condition is excellent for such an old bag, you can see from the photos that there are only normal signs of wear with very light scratches.

The only flaw is really on the back side — there's a small scratch that is clearly visible.

I have no plan to retouch this bag as I think the ultimate owner should make this decision. You can contact me if you'd like my help with a leather craftsman in Japan.

I would encourage you to refer to all the photos on this page AND the video on our instagram account for full details. Please message if you have other questions.

I hope this goes to someone that will truly treasure and love such a unique piece!
