Absolute stunner! True vintage beauty! Heavy buckle resembles two lions’ heads (I think they are lions) and is a slide style. Colors are vibrant (black is faded) and embroidery looks good. Some wear to the edges, and a spot on the back (I did not attempt to clean this). Velvet touch, but there is a material inside to give it a bit of stiffness and shape. This is fully functional and able to be worn. Measurements are shown in the photos. It looks like I’ve included a lot of repeating photos, but I took pictures next to the measurements to show the sections in detail; it’s gorgeous. From a nonsmoking home with 2 dogs.
