The leather portion of the included shoulder strap has creasing. The padlock and other metal fittings remain generally in good condition.

The Alma is one of Louis Vuitton’s most recognizable structured handbag silhouettes, tracing its design heritage to the House’s Art Deco-inspired luggage of the 1930s. Its curved form, double zip closure, rolled Toron handles, clochette, and padlock detailing have made it an enduring Maison classic.

This example is presented in Quetsche, a discontinued dark plum-purple Epi color introduced in the 2010s. The deeply saturated shade offers a refined alternative to black or brown, while the textured Epi calfskin gives the bag its distinctive linear grain and structured appearance.

The compact BB proportions are ideal for everyday essentials while maintaining the architectural character of the original Alma. It can be carried elegantly by the top handles or worn over the shoulder or crossbody using the removable leather strap.
