If you know your dooney enough, you know this is a rare gem!

It is an authentic, adorable pint-sized vintage Dooney and Bourke red canvas and burgundy leather trim crossbody handbag that is an older Dooney design that has been around for decades, and was part of the original Dooney Tack Bag Collection: the Over & Under Marble Bag.

Think of this little rugged Marble Bag as a small crossbody pouch, perfect for stashing your necessities. It makes for an excellent festival/concert bag! The strap on this one is detachable and adjustable at both ends via 5 notches.

This bag is the earliest dooney products with the green label, ways earlier than either the D&B fob as well as the authentic serial number label era.

It is extremely rare that this bag made it to today, over 50 years later with such incredible quality and condition.

What I did : I cleaned it all over, inside out with professional leather cleansing cream, slightly polished all the edges with leather protection cream in the same colour and a smooth almond oil cream to keep it's shine. All solid brass hardware has been polished.

* You will receive this bag with care, shape support padding and sealed in plastic bag. And it will be shipped in a sturdy box.
This handbag will be shipped with tracking. Let me know if you would like it to be gift wrapped.
