{"product_id":"1960s-rayne-black-patent-leather-top-handle-bag","title":"1960s Rayne Black Patent Leather Top Handle Bag","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis elegant late 1960s Rayne trapeze-shape bag is crafted from patent black leather but such is the timeless design it could conceivably be a little later. It has an unusual structure where the two sides are curved at the top and cross each other. They are detailed with a beige and black striped braid along the top edge. In the middle sits a polished gold-tone clasp. The bag has a patent leather top handle and inside, is lined with matte black leather and detailed with a zip and a slip pocket. The brand name is stamped in gold inside. The bag is in very good vintage condition overall and presents well. Clean inside with light wear noted, there are some very small scratches to the outside that you'd never spot while carrying.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRayne was established in 1885 in London as a Theatrical Costumier, Stage Shoe Shop and Factory. In 1900 they became known for luxurious women's footwear and handbags, attracting famous actresses such as Lili Langtree and Evie Greene to their doors. The brand received Royal Warrants from Queen Mary, Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother, and Queen Elizabeth II, marking its significance to the British royal family. Celebrities like Marlene Dietrich, Brigitte Bardot, Vivien Leigh and Elizabeth Taylor also favored Rayne's designs which closed its doors over 100 years later in 1993.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMEASUREMENTS\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLENGTH - 9 in.
