This is a vintage Jon Hart Design bucket bag from the late 1970s to early 1980s, featuring the brand’s early heart emblem logo inside. Handmade in San Antonio, Texas, it showcases Jon Hart’s signature craftsmanship and timeless Texas-made style.
As is common with vintage Jon Hart, this bag has the original hot-stamped monogram "JGW" on the leather patch.
Style: Classic bucket bag purse with drawstring closure
Material: Heavy canvas body with natural vegetable-tan leather trim & straps
Color: Tan
Logo: Early “Jon Hart Design” heart emblem stamp inside
Hardware: Brass eyelets and rivets
Interior: Unlined (typical of vintage Jon Hart)
Dimensions: 10" x 7" x 7" with adjustable strap
Condition: Vintage pre-owned. Leather has developed a warm patina, and canvas shows light marks or wear consistent with age. A bit of light staining - Please see all photos for details.
Provenance: This bag comes directly from my personal collection, purchased new in the 1970s at a privately owned designer women’s boutique. It has been carefully stored for decades and is guaranteed authentic Jon Hart Design.
Vintage Jon Hart handbags with the early heart logo are increasingly hard to find, especially in such original, well-preserved condition.
