Description & history
A Louis Vuitton Papillon 30 in Monogram canvas · date code NB****, 1995 · made in France · even dark caramel Vachetta patina · gold-toned zip · 30 × 15 cm · grade B.
The Papillon is one of the most original models in the Louis Vuitton catalog. Its cylindrical silhouette — unique in the house's range — gives it an instantly recognizable look and a natural femininity that has made it one of the most sought-after vintage LV bags for decades. Created in the 1960s, it reached its peak of popularity in the 1990s before being gradually withdrawn from the catalog — which makes it difficult to find in good condition today. Manufactured in France in 1995, this piece has developed a beautiful, even dark caramel Vachetta patina on the handles and strips — the result of thirty years of regular and careful wear. The Monogram canvas is clean and flawless, the gold-toned hardware has developed a light even patina consistent with age.
Good overall condition — clean canvas with no flaws, slightly rubbed corners, light rubbing on handles, hardware in good condition, clean interior with light signs of use, no major flaws — documented in photos. Comes with RARR Vintage dustbag and RARR Vintage authenticity certificate.
