Description & history
A Louis Vuitton Mini Looping in Monogram canvas · date code 2002 · made in France · Vachetta loop handle with beautiful honey patina · flap closure · the compact size of a model that is now rare and highly sought after.
The Looping is one of the most unique models in Louis Vuitton history. Its semi-rigid Vachetta handle forming an open loop is immediately recognizable and unlike any other bag from the house. Launched in the late 90s, it was available in two sizes: MM and Mini. The more compact Mini Looping is now the most sought-after of the two in the vintage market — its rarity and unique character make it a collector's item in its own right. This one was manufactured in France in 2002, as evidenced by the date code MI****. The Monogram canvas is clean, without major flaws, and the Vachetta handle shows a beautiful natural golden honey patina — a sign of living leather, well-aged, that has never been abused.
Flap closure, single compartment, interior zip pocket, clean interior with light signs of use. Dimensions to be confirmed. Comes with RARR Vintage dustbag and RARR Vintage certificate of authenticity.
