【cisei】 The 981 model, a slightly smaller version of Cisei's masterpiece tote bag, model 983, which is active in Florence. It is a rare item that is difficult to obtain, with official online stores in Japan currently sold out. The bag features Cisei's signature flap design, a luxurious and mature dark brown color, and a combination of slightly glossy grained leather and smooth nubuck suede. The attention to detail, fine stitching, and meticulous Italian craftsmanship are evident throughout, showcasing Cisei's high design quality and intricate construction. A key feature of this model is the flap made from a single piece of leather that extends from the back. The iconic solid brass buckle is designed for easy opening and closing. When the flap is tucked inside, the bag transforms into a simple tote. The grained calf leather (cowhide) used for the exterior is soft and smooth to the touch, with a luxurious and understated impression. The pigskin suede lining is soft and smooth, enhancing the luxurious feel and preventing the bag from losing its shape due to the co-stitching method with the outer leather. The interior is highly functional with two partition pockets, a zip-fastened pocket, and side snap buttons. [About this product] The color is a beautiful navy, which is no longer available. I received this bag after it was used for about a year, so there are some minor stains and scuffs on the corners. *There are also some pen marks inside. It is being offered at a price reduced by over 100,000 yen from the original retail price.
