Stunning authentic vintage Fendi Pequin Stripe Crossbody Bag/Clutch with remove ale strap from the mid-to-late 1980s. This is the highly sought-after variant featuring the large, stitched leather "FENDI" block letters vertically across the front—a much rarer find than the standard striped version.
HISTORY & AUTHENTICITY
This piece belongs to the "S.A.S." era (Società Anonima Semplice), as indicated by the beautiful gold-tone "FENDI S.A.S. Roma" interior plaque. This mark is a hallmark for vintage collectors, dating the bag to the period when the five Fendi sisters were still at the helm of the house alongside Karl Lagerfeld.
