About the Item

Elegant 1960s Vintage Sorelle Fontana Silk and Leather Evening Clutch Discover a piece of Roman haute couture history with this exquisite vintage clutch by Sorelle Fontana, dating from the iconic 1960s. The Fontana Sisters, renowned for dressing Hollywood stars and royalty, created designs that embodied sophisticated Italian glamour, and this clutch is a perfect example of their refined aesthetic. This chic evening bag features a luxurious combination of materials. The main body is crafted from a rich, deep fuchsia silk, offering a soft texture and elegant drape. The flap, in striking contrast, is made from supple black leather, adding a touch of classic sophistication. A prominent gold-tone metal plaque adorns the center of the leather flap, embossed with the prestigious "Sorelle Fontana Roma Italia" signature, a clear mark of authenticity and high fashion heritage. The clutch is secured with a discrete magnetic snap closure, ensuring your essentials are safely held within its well-appointed interior. The design is classic and understated, allowing the quality of the materials and the esteemed designer label to speak for themselves. This clutch is the quintessential accessory for formal events, evening galas, or any occasion where a touch of vintage Italian elegance is desired. It's a highly collectible item for fashion historians and enthusiasts of true couture. Good vintage condition with some light surface wear to the fabric or minor scuffs on the leather consistent with age. Overall very presentable.
