An iconic Fendi Baguette bag, crafted in a rare mother-of-pearl shell mosaic in vibrant green tones, representing one of the most collectible interpretations of the house’s signature silhouette.
First introduced in 1997 and designed by Silvia Venturini Fendi, the Baguette became the original “It Bag,” named for its under-the-arm carry. This particular version dates to the late 1990s to early 2000s, a period when Fendi gained global prominence under the creative influence of Karl Lagerfeld, who collaborated closely with Silvia to define the brand’s visual identity.
The exterior is intricately composed of rectangular mother-of-pearl shell tiles, creating a reflective, textured surface with strong visual impact. The design is finished with the signature FF turn-lock clasp, adjustable leather strap, and a typically silk-lined interior with logo plaque.
This model holds strong cultural significance, famously associated with Sex and the City, where the Baguette was cemented as a fashion icon. The combination of craftsmanship, rarity, and cultural relevance makes this piece highly desirable among collectors.
A standout archival bag valued for its unique materiality, iconic silhouette, and historical importance.
