The rare Metallic Edge edition of Balenciaga’s architectural City bag.
Launched in 2014, the Balenciaga Metallic Edge Mini City refined the house’s cult silhouette with structured metal trim and angular hardware. Far less commonly produced than the classic City, the Metallic Edge variant remains highly sought after among archive collectors.
This verified example, crafted in black agnès goatskin leather with aged gold-tone hardware and signature riveted edge plates, originates from Italian production (serial 132831-1000-A-535269). The crisp double ‘B’ zip, correct foil stamping, and construction precision confirm authenticity beyond reasonable doubt.
The rarity and enduring relevance of the Metallic Edge Mini City justify sustained high resale value within the collectible designer bag market.
