About the Item

A wine color crocodile Gladstone bag complete with its original key. Known as either a Gladstone bag or a doctors bag, it has been made in natural crocodile skin and is a deep ruby red in colour & the skin retains its original sheen. You can tell that this bag has been hardly used by the strong handle which appears to have little to no wear. The skins have also been very well matched throughout. The interior has one small blemish on the silk & there are 2 pockets. The locking function with original key is in excellent working condition.
