Prada Monkey Clasp Handbag in Cipria Python- chain handle, kisslock-style clasp
Condition: Excellent. No visible signs of wear. Leather and interior remain pristine.
An archival statement from Prada, this Cipria python handbag is defined by its sculptural “monkey” clasp, a surreal, jewelry-like closure that transforms the bag into an object as much as an accessory.

Rendered in exotic python in a soft Cipria (powder blush) tone, the silhouette balances refinement with eccentricity- a hallmark of Prada’s late 2000s to early 2010s design language, when the house leaned into offbeat hardware and conceptual detailing.
Structured yet compact, the piece is finished with a top chain handle and a framed body, allowing it to sit elegantly in hand while the clasp remains the focal point.
A rare and collectible Prada piece from a period defined by experimentation and character- where playful, unexpected hardware met impeccable craftsmanship. Increasingly difficult to source, particularly in this condition and material.
