Vintage Cashin Coach??

[thriftdrifter]

This bag screamed vintage Bonnie Cashin but there are no tags. Opinions?

Your bag definitely looks like a vintage bag but I don't know (for sure) whether or not it's a BC bag.

I've never seen a Bonnie Cashin bag without any markings at all. 

She made bags for Coach and they had a "Coach" plaque. 

She made bags for Meyers and they had "Bonnie Cashin for Meyers" stamps. 

2 examples from my own files:

BC for Coach

BC for Meyers

This picture was supposed to be in the previous post. I don't know why it didn't post!

Yup…..I can’t even see a mark where a metal lozenge would’ve been attached. The only other thing is maybe it had a fabric tag that was removed?

I believe your bag is a Vintage Bonnie Cashin Mini Tote with Kisslock, NOT for Coach as mentioned. I'm including a pic where the Bonnie Cashin Metal tag would have been. It would have been over the inside pocket strip of leather like this pic. Do you see a couple small slits in the leather where the metal tag would have been, comparing it to the picture I sent??

no marks where a tag was….but notice the same indent in the leather along the edge?

Yes. I am personally convinced your bag is a Bonnie Cashin Mini Tote with Kisslock, Did you search the pocket for that Bonnie Cashin Tag?

[thriftdrifter]

I did….I used a mini flashlight to search every inch. I’m going to look again…..there had to be a tag somewhere! 
Do you know the date of this bag? I was going to research if different tags were used in different years? 
Literally silently screaming Bonnie C!!!

The Bonnie Cashin Tags and stamps are varied. She worked for a lot of companies. This one is from the 1960's, and is Bonnie Cashin, not for anyone. Good luck finding that tag!
