{"product_id":"sp01-celine-0918","title":"-SPECIAL- “CELINE” 70’s crécy horsebit canvas and leather shoulder bag","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSince its founding in 1945, CELINE has been shaping luxury that naturally fits into women’s everyday life—layering Parisian refinement with sporty, practical sensibility. We are pleased to introduce this historic piece, which reflects the Maison’s equestrian-inspired aesthetic and the elegance of the 1970s.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCrafted in an ivory-toned textile paired with glossy dark brown leather, this Crécy Bag from around 1976 to 1980 features elegant horizontal proportions and gold-colored horsebit hardware.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe textile used for the body has a calm expression created by its fine weave, and the smooth leather defines the silhouette with clarity—beautifully balancing a light, tactile feel with classic structural form. The soft ivory and deep brown color palette is equally striking, and the natural contrast enhances the bag’s sense of volume.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOn the front, gold-colored horsebit hardware reminiscent of a harness bridle is set in place. Leather belts extend to the left and right, crossing horizontally across the entire flap so that decoration and structure form a single line. The composition that concentrates the hardware’s brilliance at the center conveys the Maison’s origins with understated intelligence—very much in keeping with CELINE’s founder-led era, without the need to display the logo prominently.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAt the lower edge of the flap, curved leather pieces are layered symmetrically on both sides, rising softly toward the center to form an elegant contour. This shaping adds refined inflection to the otherwise straight-edged silhouette of the bag; from the front it maintains classic neatness, while the details still preserve a sense of decorative glamour.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFurthermore, smaller horsebit hardware is also placed on the sides, designed so the equestrian motif continues from different angles rather than remaining confined to the front. The gusset features an accordion structure made by layering multiple leather pieces, allowing the depth to display beautifully even when viewed from the side—achieving both practical capacity and a refined silhouette.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe interior is meticulously finished in dark brown leather and includes, in addition to a zip pocket, multiple slip pockets. By dividing the storage areas into small sections, it makes everyday essentials easier to organize. This is a luxury design from the time not only in the decorative appeal of the exterior, but also in the consideration given to the movements of the person using it.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOn the interior zipper pull, there is a circular medallion featuring CELINE’s former brazon. It is a subtle detail that appears only when the bag is opened. The ability to enjoy two historic motifs—the horsebit on the exterior and the brazon inside—at the same time is a unique added value of this individual piece.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn the latter part of the 1970s, this was an era when Céline Vipiana led the Maison as its founder, translating a sporty upper-class culture derived from carriages and harnesses, and the practicality that suits everyday life in Paris, into leather goods. The Italian-made stamp remaining inside, the hardware featuring the former brazon, and the refined combination of canvas and leather all align with the context of the period. As such, it is also a meaningful archive piece that connects Founder Era CELINE to the present.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIf you would like to experience the Maison’s equestrian codes that lead to today’s Trionph from a more simple, artisanal point of view—or if you prefer to enjoy history not through the strength of the brand logo but through the relationship between materials and hardware—this is a piece especially worth holding in your hands. Its shoulder style makes it easy to use in everyday life, yet it possesses the level of refinement to serve as the centerpiece of an outfit, allowing a classic bag to blend naturally into a modern wardrobe.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFor styling, it shines with elegant looks pairing a tailored jacket and a long skirt, or by complementing a genderless style with a shirt and wide trousers—beautifully highlighting the bag’s architectural silhouette. It also harmonizes with flowing dresses and long coats; the lightness of the canvas lends the overall look an appropriate sense of ease, so you can enjoy a poised presence regardless of the season.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis special collection-worthy archive piece lets you enjoy, in a single bag, the equestrian codes that continue into CELINE today and the understated glamour distinctive of the founder-led period.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlease take this opportunity.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CELINE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49565600252142,"sku":null,"price":168000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/2751\/1534\/files\/37F5E7D0-E65E-46BC-9060-71C9D9063324.jpg?v=1789538287","url":"https:\/\/mood-by-link.com\/en\/products\/sp01-celine-0918","provider":"MOOD","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
