Mystery Foley + Corinna Bag - Help Identify!

Hello!

I recently thrifted a cute Foley + Corinna bag, but I can't seem to identify the style anywhere. I like the bag enough to use even if it's a knockoff, but I wanted to see if someone here might recognize it.

Features:
  • Pebbled leather exterior (it might be "Liberated Leather" from 2016 and after but I'm not sure)
  • Gold hardware: zippers with YKK on the side, caps on front zipper tassels with F+C logo
  • Shoulder straps that end in knots
  • Panels on front and back. On the front, there are zippered compartments on either side of it.
  • Taupe fabric lining with repeating logo pattern in dark brown in different sizes
  • Inside is one zippered compartment and two open compartments trimmed in leather or vegan leather
  • Approximate dimensions: 15" wide, 10.5" high, 5" deep
  • There is one tiny black tag on the inside that reads "Made in China" on one side and "RN# 97208" on the other
I've searched online archives and vintage platforms, but haven't had any luck so far. Any insights or information would be greatly appreciated!

Hi Susie, this bag looks very modern to me. I think Foley & Corrina is a fairly recent brand.
 
Hi Susie, the RN number was established in 1991 and is registered to "FASHION ACCESSORY BAZAAR LLC -1 EAST 33RD STREET 6TH FLOOR, NEW YORK, NEW YORK 10016". Which is odd because that is listed as a software development company. When cross referencing the RN number with Foley & Corinna I do not see a match. In any case the purse is more modern, which can be confusing because Foley & Corinna have a line of modern handbags tilted "Vintage". Either way it seems like a very nice, modern, functional bag for everyday use.
