Elevate evening occasions—cocktail parties, gallery openings or autumn weddings—with this vintage Bottega Veneta Intrecciato Knot chain clutch in rich burgundy. Its compact design carries the essentials, while the gold-tone accents and shoulder chain add refined, hands-free elegance.
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 are the measurements and how much does it hold? A: This clutch measures approximately 20 × 11 × 5 cm. It comfortably fits small evening essentials such as a slim smartphone, cardholder, keys and a lipstick. Because it is a structured box, internal space is compact; larger phones (Plus/Max sizes) often do not fit. Please compare your device (without a bulky case) to the measurements before purchasing.
Q: Can I wear it on the shoulder or as a clutch? A: Yes. This piece includes a single chain shoulder strap with an approximate 59 cm drop for shoulder wear, and it can be carried by hand as a clutch. Some Knot versions from the brand have detachable chains, while others are fixed; if detachability is essential to you, please contact us to confirm for this exact item.
Q: How does the knot clasp work and is it secure? A: The closure is a classic knot lift-clasp. Gently lift the knot to open; to close, press the frame until it clicks. When properly fastened, it is secure for evening wear.
Q: What is Intrecciato leather and why is it special? A: Intrecciato is Bottega Veneta’s signature hand-woven leather technique that creates a supple yet structured finish with a refined, understated look. The Knot clutch showcases this weave with a minimalist framed silhouette and the house’s knot hardware—an enduring brand icon.
Q: Is this style still part of Bottega Veneta’s current collections? A: Yes. The Knot remains a house signature and is produced in various iterations seasonally, including Soft Knot and Stretch/elongated versions, which differ in silhouette and capacity.
Q: Will my large smartphone fit inside? A: Fit depends on your exact phone model and case. Many standard-sized phones fit if slimly cased or uncased, but larger models (e.g., Plus/Max) commonly do not fit in the classic Knot. We recommend checking your phone’s dimensions against the interior allowance and contacting us if unsure.
Q: How should I care for the leather and store the bag? A: Avoid contact with moisture, oils and colour-transfer-prone fabrics. Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth after use. Store in its dust bag, lightly stuffed to maintain shape, and keep the chain separated or wrapped to prevent impressions on the leather. For deep cleaning or repairs, consult a professional leather specialist or an authorised boutique.
Q: Is this a vintage piece and what is the condition? A: Yes, this is a vintage item. It is in Very Good overall condition with light traces of use; the interior is Very Good and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. Please review the photos and Condition notes for full details.
Q: What accessories are included? A: This item comes with a dust bag. All inclusions are listed under Accessories; if an item is not listed there, it is not included.
Q: How is authenticity guaranteed? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously authenticated by our in-house experts using multi-point checks of materials, weave, hardware, stamps and interior labels. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can share additional details upon request.
