MOSCHINO Redwall Drum Novelty Top Handle Bag, late 1980s/early 1990s
By Moschino
Located in Munich, DE
Early Moschino pieces designed by Franco Moschino himself – often referred to as Italian fashion's "enfant terrible" – within the short period when he launched the House of Moschino in 1983 until he passed away in 1994 are sought after and highly collectible.

This rare late 1980s/early 1990s MOSCHINO novelty bag is a wonderful example of Franco Moschino's fanciful designs and captures the fun vibe that Moschino has always represented as a brand.
The design looks like a typical harlequin drum with its triangles in red, navy, yellow, green and cream leather and the red cord embellishment at the top and the bottom. It features a golden leather top handle, a cream top...
