Color Block Handbag Appraisal

Ted Ross Color-Block Flap Handbag

This item is a contemporary women's handbag, characterized by its distinctive color-block design. The bag features a flap-over closure and a structured, somewhat angular silhouette. The primary colors visible are light beige or off-white for the main body of the flap and a significant upper portion of the bag, light blue on the right side of the flap and the corresponding side of the bag's body, and a dark navy blue forming the bottom section. The materials appear to be a faux leather or synthetic material with a subtle Saffiano-like texture, particularly noticeable on the navy blue and light blue sections, suggesting durability and scratch resistance. The main flap closure features the embossed or printed brand name 'TED ROSS' in a simple, sans-serif font, indicating the manufacturer. The bag has metal hardware attachments for a strap, visible on either side of the top opening, which appear to be silver-toned. The construction involves neat stitching along the edges, particularly where different color panels meet, suggesting a reasonable level of craftsmanship for a fashion accessory. Based on the styling and materials, it likely dates to a contemporary period, possibly within the last decade. There are no immediately visible signs of significant wear, damage, or repairs in the provided image, indicating a good to very good condition. The structured form suggests it is designed to hold its shape well, even when empty. The overall design is clean and modern, leveraging geometric color blocking for visual appeal. Its size appears to be suitable for carrying daily essentials without being overly bulky, consistent with a medium-sized handbag or shoulder bag.
