Vintage Marl Wool Shoulder Tote in Grey

Dating to 1998, this Christian Dior tote reflects a transitional period in the house's history, just before the launch of the iconic Saddle Bag in 1999. Designs from this era favoured understated silhouettes, premium textiles and discreet branding — here a textured grey marl wool body paired with sleek leather trim and the signature D-I-O-R letter charms, each finished with an intricately engraved pattern that adds depth and subtle light reflection. These pre-Saddle designs are increasingly appreciated by collectors for offering a quieter expression of the house's heritage. A preloved piece in mint vintage condition with only very light signs of wear: minor scuffing and slight colour loss to the leather trim, barely noticeable, otherwise exceptionally well preserved throughout. Bag only.
