1970s Gucci Gilt Brass Shoehorn with Swinging Horsebit Ring, Italy

About the Item

1970s Gucci Gilt Brass Shoehorn with Swinging Horsebit Ring, Italy A rare and refined 1970s Gucci gilt brass shoehorn, produced by the Parfums division of the iconic Italian house. This elegantly sculpted piece reflects the brand’s signature blend of equestrian heritage and mid-century design. Crafted in gilt brass with a sleek, high-polish finish, the shoehorn features an articulated swinging horsebit-style D-ring, a nod to Gucci’s iconic equestrian codes. The rotating top allows for convenient hanging or attachment, while lending the piece sculptural appeal. One side is crisply engraved GUCCI parfums, referencing the fragrance and giftware division. The reverse is signed Gucci Italy in a stylized script with Made in Italy beneath—typical of the house’s branding under Aldo Gucci’s leadership in the 1970s. This piece falls into a category of luxury-branded travel accessories Gucci produced in the 1960s and '70s to align with the jet-set lifestyle of its clientele. Objects like this—usable, elegant, and logo-driven—are sought after by collectors of vintage Gucci and design objects. The Gucci Parfums branding places this in a narrower production window when such pieces were distributed through fragrance gift sets or boutique promotions. The blade is gracefully flared and smooth, exemplifying modern Italian design sensibilities. Elegant yet functional, this piece is both a collector’s item and a luxe everyday accessory.
