• Lot Description
  Western Europe, France, ca. 2009 CE. A luxurious Louis Vuitton Alma GM handbag, hand-stitched and expertly crafted from Epi grained cowhide leather with smooth leather trim, all dyed in black and lined with soft microfiber. The bag features silver-toned brass hardware, signature Toron (rolled) handles, and an interior pocket bearing the serial number MI4019, stamped on the inner lip. A double zipper closure secures the top, complete with a padlock and a key bell containing two keys. The Alma is a timeless icon from the coveted Louis Vuitton collection, ideal for everyday sophistication.
