Mulberry Classic Heritage Bayswater in Oak Croc Printed Leather - SOLD

This is a 100% authentic Mulberry Classic Heritage Bayswater in Oak Croc Printed Leather with brass hardware. 

Crafted from a thick, robust, rich caramel-oak printed NVT hide, this sadly discontinued finish is one that just gets lovelier with age.

A real work-horse Mulberry, its super strong, brilliantly broken-in & a bag you'll never need to baby.

  Condition - Well Used

Details -

A study, solid leather, the silhoutte hasn't softened very much, just has the natural forward lean when empty (see photo above).

Lots of light surface scuffs, scratches and a little dryness to the hide, this is a finish that conceals all manners of use magnificently! All blending and creating a lovely, lived-in look, there's very little wear to the leather at all. Corner curves are gently lightend and dry but not scuffed or worn. Inking, (edge sealent) around the top aperture is all in place and stitching strong throughout.

As is commonly seen on pieces with flaps, there is flex cracking to the inking at the sides of the flap base, though this is very hard to see unless inspecting very closely.

Shoulder straps are well shaped with softening to the bases and inking wear to the triangular formation reverses. There is darkening and inking wear to the top curves of the straps, from being hand-held.

The Postmans Lock Plate displays light finish rubbing around the turnlock hole, (no loss of coating, just a slightly different shade) and the underside plate displays contact friction scratching to its upper middle, (again no loss of coating, just a darker shade). The base plate is excellent.

The four, rounded, stud feet to the base display scratching and paling to their apex from being placed down.

The interior is self lined in thick suede, showing general use and a dark, vertical mark in the middle of the front wall extendint on to the trim. Similar dark marking to the RH side slip pocket, around the disc area.

A delightful and classic Bayswater that looks so much lovelier in the flesh than a listing of its faults make it sound.
