This is fine leather coin purse made by Loewe, Spain. Coin purse is about 30
years old. It never been used. I will ship in new gift box as photographed.
It resembling the style and design as Louis Vuitton’s Taiga (green) coin purse,
Porte-monnie cuvette, change purse which is selling in USA at $700.00.
I found the reason why this coin purse almost identical to LV coin purse because
LV bought international distribution right from Loewe’s in 1986, and acquired Loewe
completely in1996 as paragraph listed separately. It is very interesting.
This coin purse is not available from Loewe any longer. Collector's item now.
Loewe
was founded in 1846 in Madrid by a group of Spanish leather craftsmen, and the brand originated in 1876 when Enrique Loewe y Roessberg, a German craftsman, joined the group. ----In 1986, LVMH bought the rights to Loewe's internaional distribution. It acquired Loewe completely in 1996. You can find complete company history in Wikipedia.
