Smile Goldyn Vintage Snakeskin Bag


There’s something about vintage handbags that make me admire them in awe. Speaking of vintage, I ran into this handbag by Goldyn. I can’t decide if it’s the condition its in or if it’s the fact that the piece is older than I am, whichever the case, I like it. Goldyn (dot com) claims this purse is circa 1950’s, pretty neat, huh? Authentic black snakeskin lines the exterior of this bag, while gold toned hardware compliments this dark piece, beautifully. Snakeskin handbag owners, here’s proof that taking good care of your pieces will allow aging of your handbag that will last for decades to come.


I’m liking the large, yet slim silhouette of this bag. For day, wear the removable strap on the shoulder, which appeals perfect for school or the office. During the night, the double squared handles allow this to be an extra large clutch or a brief like case. More features include interior compartments with pockets, and 14” x 10” dimensions. Ladies, what’s your input on this bag? How about on vintage finds in general?

For only $80, you buy this snake skin piece via: shopgoldyn

I didn't know that this bag was recycled, I thought it was just inspired-by. Very interesting.. but I probably wouldn't spend $80 on a 60 year old bag

The bag is pretty neat, I like it.

Although in general I am not a vintage person. I do not like vintage clothes or accessories.

I agree.. I just checked and it's out of stock, so it looks like someone else did!
