Small Trio Burgundy Leather Crossbody Bag – Cèline by Phoebe Philo

An iconic Céline Small Trio crossbody bag from the Phoebe Philo era, crafted in supple burgundy leather with gold-tone hardware and the discreet CÉLINE PARIS – Made in Italy stamp.

Introduced during one of Céline's most influential design periods, the Trio became emblematic of Phoebe Philo's understated approach to luxury: clean lines, exceptional leather and ingenious functionality without conspicuous branding.

The deceptively simple silhouette is constructed from three slim zipped leather pouches, joined together to form one compact crossbody bag. The compartments provide excellent organisation while retaining the Trio's characteristic soft, minimalist profile. The adjustable leather strap allows it to sit neatly across the body or on the shoulder.

This example is finished in a rich oxblood-burgundy leather, complemented by warm gold-tone zips and tonal red stitching. The leather has softened beautifully with use, lending the bag the relaxed character associated with well-loved Phoebe Philo-era Céline, but the front logo has been brushed off.

A highly wearable piece of Old Céline, and an increasingly collectable example of 2010s minimalist luxury.

od and early 21st-century “It bags”. A practical piece of fashion history rather than simply a handbag.
