Q: How should I care for an Intrecciato leather bag?
A: Intrecciato woven leather should be handled gently and stored away from direct sunlight, heat and humidity. We recommend keeping it lightly stuffed when not in use, avoiding overfilling, and wiping it carefully with a soft dry cloth. Avoid harsh cleaners, oils and prolonged friction on the woven surface.

Q: Does the metallic finish need any special care?
A: Yes. Metallic finishes can show rubbing and surface wear more readily than standard leather, especially on corners and high-contact areas. To preserve the finish, avoid rough surfaces, do not overpack the bag, and store it separately from items that could scratch it.

Q: How can I tell if a Bottega Veneta Intrecciato bag is authentic?
A: Buyers commonly look at the quality and consistency of the weave, the feel of the leather, the finishing of the hardware, the interior label details and overall craftsmanship. This bag is made in Italy, and every item sold by A Retro Tale is professionally authenticated before listing.
