Description
Model History:
The Jackie model was first launched by Gucci in the 1950s, but it truly acquired its name and iconic status in the 1960s when Jackie Kennedy was regularly photographed with this model on her shoulder. Reinterpreted on several occasions, the Jackie bag was revived in 2020 under the direction of Alessandro Michele with this mini version christened “Jackie 1961”. This model blends historical heritage and contemporary aesthetics, while retaining the vintage essence that makes it a classic prized by collectors of fine leather goods.
Exterior Details:
The beige and ebony GG Supreme canvas, with its emblematic monogram motif, is framed by smooth brown leather with a slightly grained look. The corners and edges are reinforced to preserve the bag’s shape. A green and red web strip highlights the center of the piece, providing a contrast typical of the Gucci universe. The gold-plated brass plunger buckle, positioned on a leather tongue, echoes the original Jackie design. The removable, adjustable shoulder strap can be worn over the shoulder or cross-body, to suit all preferences.
Interior Details:
The interior of the bag is lined in beige microfiber with a suede finish, soft to the touch and easy to care for. It features a flat leather side pocket, ideal for cards or small personal effects. The well-structured main opening provides quick access to its contents, while ensuring that the bag stays securely in place.
Product Condition:
This bag is in mint condition. It comes with its original dustbag, removable shoulder strap and box.
Care instructions:
Keep the bag in its dustbag when not in use, and avoid prolonged exposure to direct light or moisture. Clean leather with a soft, slightly damp cloth and canvas with a soft brush. Metal parts can be wiped with a dry, non-abrasive cloth to preserve their shine.
