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 does the Small Andiamo carry? A: This piece measures approximately 24 × 29 × 12 cm with a 5 cm top-handle drop and an adjustable sliding strap with about a 24–49 cm drop. It can be carried by hand, on the shoulder or crossbody, depending on how you set the strap.
Q: What fits inside day to day? A: The Small Andiamo has two main compartments with an interior zip pocket and slips. It comfortably holds a large smartphone, long wallet, keys, sunglasses in a soft case and a small cosmetics pouch. Many owners also carry a small water bottle placed horizontally or an iPad mini in a slim sleeve, but capacity depends on your specific items and how you organise them.
Q: Is the strap adjustable and how does it work? A: Yes. The braided leather strap slides through the side loops so you can shorten it for shoulder wear or lengthen it for crossbody. It is not designed to be fully removable, but you can tuck it inside the bag when carrying by the top handle.
Q: What closure and interior does it have? A: The bag features a secure magnetic closure. Inside, the layout is compartmented with one zipped pocket and open slips to keep smaller items tidy.
Q: What leather is used and how should I care for it? A: It is crafted in Bottega Veneta’s Intrecciato lambskin with a leather-lined interior and brass-finish hardware. Keep it away from liquids, oils, perfumes and prolonged direct sunlight or heat. Store it stuffed to hold its shape and in its dust bag when not in use; wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth only.
Q: Is it heavy to wear for long periods? A: The Small Andiamo with the leather braided strap wears light-to-moderate for most users. Chain-strap variants tend to feel heavier; this piece has the leather strap, which many find more comfortable for daily wear.
Q: Does the bag have base studs (feet)? A: No, the Small Andiamo design typically does not include metal feet. We recommend placing it on clean, dry surfaces to protect the leather base.
Q: Is it suitable for bad weather? A: It’s a leather bag, so it’s best to avoid rain. If it gets slightly wet, blot—do not rub—with a soft cloth and allow it to air dry away from heat sources.
Q: What is included with this specific item? A: As listed in the product information, this piece comes with a dust bag.
Q: What is the condition and how is authenticity ensured? A: Condition is Very Good with minor corner scuffing outside, light signs of use inside and shiny hardware with light scratches. Every item at A Retro Tale is authenticated by in‑house experts through multi‑point checks of materials, stitching, stamps and hardware, and we stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell.
