Gucci Horsebit 1955 Bag Pre-Owned & Authenticated | JoliCloset

The Gucci Horsebit 1955 revives the double-ring horsebit clasp that Gucci trademarked in 1955 and turned into a house signature. Alessandro Michele reintroduced the silhouette in 2020 and placed it at the heart of the Beloved campaign alongside Dakota Johnson and Serena Williams. JoliCloset lists 137 authenticated pre-owned Horsebit 1955 bags, each checked by our in-house team before shipping, from €1,100.

Sizes and variants

The line comes in four official sizes: Nano, Mini shoulder (20.6 × 14.4 cm), Small shoulder (20 × 14 × 7 cm) and Medium top-handle (25 × 19 × 8 cm). Each silhouette ships with a detachable leather strap or a contrast nylon web strap. Top-handle versions command the strongest premium on the secondary market, while the mini crossbody offers the best desirability-to-price ratio.

Materials and finishes

The most common finishes you will encounter pre-owned are the GG Supreme beige/ebony canvas (the most accessible entry point), smooth calfskin in black, white or red, textured grained leather and suede. Adidas and Liberty collaborations, chain-strap variants and denim patchwork editions circulate in smaller quantities. The flap opens onto a beige microfiber lining with a single flat pocket.

Price and value on the pre-owned market

Retail on the Small sits near $3,250 and the Medium near $3,650 at boutique. On JoliCloset, prices start at €1,100 for a good-condition GG Supreme canvas and climb to €2,400 for a near-new leather piece. The chain-strap version, produced in short runs, holds its value particularly well. Buying pre-owned typically saves 40 to 55% versus retail and unlocks seasonal colourways that have already left production.

How to authenticate a Horsebit 1955

Check the engraved "Gucci Made in Italy" stamp beneath the horsebit, the 6-7 digit serial embossed on the interior leather tab (paired with a controllato card since 2016), the regular waxed beige or brown thread depending on the finish, clean edge paint, and perfect GG Supreme pattern alignment around the flap. The horsebit hardware should feel weighty, solid-plated, with no visible solder marks.
