CITES compliance applies to this lot. International Bidders may not have the lot shipped to them.  See further limitations: see page 8, Jewelry, Watch & Luxury Accessory Term M, of our Terms & Conditions.  Due to the nature of exotic wildlife materials, please be aware that inconsistencies may naturally be present.
The Cabas ChYC bag was one of the only styles to remain in production after Hedi Slimane became creative director of Yves Saint Laurent in 2012. Although the ChYc was originally designed by previous creative director Stefano Pilati, it was Slimane that incarnated the ChYc in luxurious alligator skin making the design a signature of the brand. This bag is extremely difficult to find in an exotic skin and such a large size. This enduring YSL creation prominently features the "Y" iconic clasp, two rolled top handles, zip top closure. The interior is done in gray leather with two slip pockets and one zip pocket.

This bag is in Excellent to Pristine Condition. There is very faint scratching to the hardware and slight imperfections to the exterior skin. This bag comes with a Yves Saint Laurent dustbag.
