This is such a lovely Dooney and Bourke (DB) All-Weather Leather (AWL) “Vintage Flap Bag”, a messenger style handbag that was first introduced by Dooney as its new style of “saddle bag” in 1995 (and this one is from 1996). It was from the much beloved DB AWL Vintage Collection from the 90s, and that's why it has the extra swath of smooth leather where the signature leather duck patch is located on the front. And it closes with one magnetic snap button.

This style is now harder-to-find and even considered rare, in peanut butter tan colour, one of the most popular colour!

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.
