PRADA Rare Oversized Croc-Pattern Leather Tote – c. 2009
An exceptionally rare archival Prada large tote, crafted in soft leather and finished with a sculptural, crocodile-inspired patchwork pattern on both sides. The stitched-on construction gives the bag depth, movement, and a distinctly elevated, artisanal feel.
This model was likely released as a boutique-exclusive in the late 2000s. The hanging mirror tag stamped with “F” marks production at Prada’s Firenze factory — a detail used for select editions. A truly scarce archive piece, the kind that appears only once in a decade, if ever. A collector’s item with craftsmanship and rarity that speak for themselves.
The leather is incredibly soft and fluid. Both exterior and interior remain in perfect condition.
