-SPECIAL- "GUCCI" 90s-00s Wooden Handle Frame Bag

Founded in Florence in 1921, GUCCI has refined artisan skills and iconic designs starting from leather goods, embedding the aesthetic sensibilities of each era into its bags. Especially during the Tom Ford period, it was a golden age where classic elements were re-edited in an urban style, bringing a glossy tension into everyday life. This time, instead of bamboo, a choice of wood reflects sophistication, and we introduce a refined masterpiece.

This masterpiece features a beautiful contrast between the natural wood frame and the soft leather.

The dark brown wood frame, strung at the top, exudes a neatness akin to furniture through its smooth curves without nodes and the expression of the wood grain, and the plump leather body adds shadows, creating a change in expression depending on how it is held.

The leather's fine grain softly disperses light, emphasizing its compatibility over hardness, which makes the frame's straight lines stand out more, and the handle's rounded grip provides a sense of stability with its thickness, reminiscent of a comfortable hold. Inside, the G motif jacquard runs in the same color, and the opening's clear visibility, thanks to the frame structure, ensures a smart and refined usage experience.

The unique value of this piece lies in the choice of a wood handle without bamboo nodes, clearly reflecting a reinterpretation typical of the Tom Ford era.

Furthermore, the G logo jacquard lining confirms the atmosphere of GUCCI from the late 1990s onward, and the engraved mark with "GUCCI" and "made in Italy" also enhances the sense of era, creating credibility for the late 1990s to early 2000s range. The balance of a classic frame bag, tilted towards mode with the tranquility of wood and the softness of black, remains an unmatched charm.

In daily life, the more minimal the outfit, the more the curves of the wood and the shadows of the leather stand out, blending naturally with both a jacket for commuting and quiet settings like dinner or galleries at night. Since the bag itself has a strong expression, it can stand alone without adding accessories, and just holding it creates the right mood, which is delightful.

For styling, pairing a high-quality shirt with neat slacks and finishing with leather shoes highlights the clean construction beauty of the frame. As another option, adding it to a simple dress or a relaxed set-up can subtract the glossy mood of the wood's tranquility, allowing you to incorporate the urban sophistication of Tom Ford's era elegantly.

Definitely take this opportunity.
