Lanvin Pencil Cat Bag | White Croc Leather & Gold Cat Handle

Inspired by Jeanne Lanvin's historic friendship with interior decorator Armand-Albert Rateau, this iconic Lanvin Pencil Cat bag reimagines haute couture heritage into a wearable piece of sculptural art. Crafted in a structured, elongated "pencil box" silhouette from crisp white croc-embossed calfskin leather, the bag is defined by high-contrast black edge lacquering. Crowned atop the top flap sits the house’s legendary handle: an electroplated, arched cat sculpture cast in detailed antique gold-tone metal. Outfitted with an engraved rectangular buckle closure, side logo medal plaque, and a matching wide croc-embossed detachable leather shoulder strap, this architectural accessory seamlessly transitions from a statement handheld evening piece to a modern crossbody.
