Founded in Florence in 1921, Gucci is one of world's leading brands in the luxury sector.

With a renowned reputation for quality and Italian craftsmanship, Gucci designs, manufactures and distributes leather goods (handbags, small leather goods, and luggage), shoes, clothing, silk items, watches and jewelry. Eyewear and fragrances are manufactured and distributed under license by global industry leaders in their respective sectors.

On the occasion of 10 years of Make-A-Wish Italy non-profit organization, whose mission is to fulfill the wish of the heart of seriously ill children, between 3 and 17 years, Gucci has donated to the association of an iconic bag: a New Jackie in metallic python with maple brown details with maple dark brown metallic leather.

The first model of this unique type of bag was launched in 1958 and in 1961 the House decided to pay tribute to Jacqueline Kennedy who wore it often by naming the bag after her.

These are the details:

  • Metallic python;
  • Gold trim clear up;
  • Leather lining brown maple;
  • medium size: L36cm x x A29.5cm P5.5cm;
  • Made in Italy;
  • Adjustable shoulder strap,
  • height (light) and detachable shoulder strap 21 cm, height (light) 45 cm;
  • Piston closure;
  • interior zip pocket, cell phone pockets.

It takes about 2 days of work to complete a New Jackie and up to 14 meters of leather strands. The hook comes from the archive and the iconic metal fittings are solid brass, galvanized with 24K gold (to ensure the beauty of the accessories over time).

The bamboo detail recalls the traditional and history of Gucci and adds a casual attitude. The long shoulder strap gives the wearer an alternative option.
