Louis Vuitton Monogram Vernis Alma BB Handbag in Black

This item is a Louis Vuitton Alma BB handbag, rendered in what appears to be black Monogram Vernis leather. The bag displays the distinctive embossed Monogram pattern, featuring the interlocking 'LV' initials, quatrefoils, and flowers, which are characteristic of the Louis Vuitton brand. The Vernis leather provides a high-gloss, patent finish, giving the bag a luxurious and sophisticated aesthetic. The Alma BB is a structured, dome-shaped bag, visible from its characteristic rounded top and flat base. It features dual rolled leather top handles, securely attached to the main body with visible gold-toned hardware buckles, which show some minor scratching or wear indicative of use. A full-length, double-zip closure with a gold-tone zipper extends around the top curve of the bag, allowing for wide access to the interior. While the interior is not visible, these bags typically feature a textile lining and internal pockets. The overall condition appears good, with the shiny Vernis surface reflecting light evenly, although patent leather is prone to fingerprints and subtle surface scratches that are difficult to discern from the image. There is a small attached clochette or luggage tag, also in black Vernis leather, hanging from one of the handle bases. The craftsmanship is typical of Louis Vuitton, with precise stitching and high-quality hardware. This particular style, the Alma BB, is a smaller, more compact version of the classic Alma bag, designed for carrying essentials. Its estimated age would likely be post-2010 when the Alma BB size gained significant popularity.
