I cleaned and conditioned with Clyde's Leather Conditioner Balm, and polished the brass. Coach Vintage Plaza bag. No. 034-6044, Black Made in the USA. This RARE find, is a 1980's - 1990's model, and is often referred to by Coach collectors, as The Bistro Bag The Coach vintage Plaza Bag, specific style, is a highly collectible find. This bag has such nice form still, I polished the brass hardware. Before 1994, serial numbers were often stamped directly into the leather and followed a format like 000-0000 In older catalogs, the related Plaza models, were identified as the #9865 (larger). Crafted from glove-tanned cowhide leather, known for being exceptionally soft and supple. The hardware is solid brass, typical of authentic vintage Coach. Vintage Coach bags of this era are celebrated for their stealth wealth aesthetic, thick unlined or raw leather interiors, and extreme longevity. Size: 11.25 x 8.25 x 3.25d. Strap is 46.5 long from clip to clip. Comes in a generic dust bag I made. PLEASE manage expectations when purchasing pre-loved vintage purses!!!
