Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What typically fits inside the Bottega Veneta Intrecciato Crossbody Bag? A: With approximate dimensions of 24 × 20 × 4 cm, it’s ideal for daily essentials: a large smartphone (including most Pro/Max models), a compact wallet or cardholder, keys, lipstick, AirPods, a passport and slim sunglasses in a soft sleeve. A small notebook may fit. Bulky pouches, water bottles and larger tablets generally do not. Please compare your items with the Measurements shown or ask us for a tailored fit check for this exact piece.
Q: Will it fit an iPad mini or Kindle? A: Slim 8–8.5-inch tablets or an e‑reader can sometimes fit without a thick case, but the zip opening and dual‑compartment layout reduce practical capacity. For certainty, compare your device’s dimensions with the Measurements or ask us to perform a quick fit check for this bag.
Q: Is the strap adjustable or removable? Can I wear it crossbody? A: The single flat shoulder strap is adjustable and designed for shoulder or crossbody wear. It is not intended to be removed. This piece shows an approximate 57 cm strap drop—on most wearers that sits at a comfortable crossbody height. If you’d like us to advise how it might sit on you, just ask.
Q: How secure is the closure and what pockets does it have? A: The main compartment has a zip closure for good everyday security. Inside, there are two main sections with internal pockets, and there’s an external zip pocket for quick‑access items. Our listing photos show the exact pocket layout of this piece.
Q: What materials and hardware does this bag feature? A: This listing specifies black Intrecciato woven leather with gunmetal‑tone hardware and a tonal fabric lining. It is stamped Made in Italy. The photos and description show the precise finishes and details of this item.
Q: What is Bottega Veneta’s Intrecciato leather? A: Intrecciato is Bottega Veneta’s signature hand‑woven leather technique. It creates a supple yet robust surface by interlacing leather strips. With proper care, it wears beautifully over time, developing a refined patina while retaining its structure.
Q: How should I care for the woven leather and hardware? A: Keep the bag away from moisture, oils and prolonged sunlight, and be mindful of colour transfer from dark denim. Wipe with a soft, dry cloth; if conditioning, use a high‑quality neutral leather product very sparingly and test on a discreet area first (do not over‑saturate the weave). Store lightly stuffed, upright, in a breathable dust bag, and avoid hanging by the strap for long periods. To minimise marks, place a soft cloth between the strap/hardware and the leather during storage. Hairline scratches on gunmetal hardware are normal with use—avoid abrasive surfaces.
Q: Is this specific crossbody style still produced? A: While Intrecciato remains a core Bottega Veneta signature, many specific vintage crossbody configurations are discontinued. The pre‑loved market is the best way to find exact sizes and pocket layouts like this one.
Q: Where are the brand markings and codes located, and how is dating handled? A: Authentic Bottega Veneta bags typically feature a “BOTTEGA VENETA” and “Made in Italy” heat‑stamp inside. Many pieces also include a small leather tab or discreet interior code; placement and format can vary by era. We’re happy to share close‑up photos and help interpret the markings for this exact bag.
Q: What accessories are included and how do you authenticate? A: Included items are listed under “Accessories.” This piece shows “no accessories.” Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes rigorous, multi‑point authentication by our in‑house experts, assessing materials, stitching, hardware, stamps, serial/style codes and overall construction. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can provide additional photos on request.
Q: Can Bottega Veneta repair or service this bag? A: Bottega Veneta boutiques may offer repair services subject to assessment and parts availability (e.g., hardware, stitching and certain leather work). Costs and lead times vary by region and model. Independent luxury leather specialists can also perform cleaning and minor restoration. We’re happy to advise on options and help you prepare for a boutique assessment.
