Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
It is a beautiful Givenchy handbag. Such vintage designer items are being offered at auction on a regular basis.
The handbag from Givenchy has a lovely design and is very elegant. It is typical of the second half of the 1900s. It appears to have some signs of wear and use which decreases the value on the second hand market. I do not presume that you have the original receipt or dustbag. If you do this will increase the value.
The estimate provided is for a well-advertised specialised online designer items auction, where I believe the Givenchy handbag has the best chance of realising its fullest potential. However, there is no measurement for the sentimental value you might attach to the Givenchy handbag. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and vary.
Please let me know if you have any additional questions. I’m happy to help.
Thank you
