Perfect for a weekend away or daily commutes, this vintage Céline Macadam pouch slips into your tote to organise make-up and small essentials. Its classic brown canvas and gold-tone accents add refined polish for coffee meetings or evening drinks.
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 this Céline Macadam pouch? A: With approximate dimensions of 16 × 13 × 8 cm, it comfortably holds small daily essentials such as a cardholder, keys, lip balm or lipstick, a compact, travel‑size hand sanitiser, earbuds, and charging cables. A standard passport (around 12.5 × 8.8 cm) also fits. Larger smartphones may fit horizontally depending on the case and the zip opening—please compare your device to the measurements shown.
Q: Is the Macadam canvas water‑resistant? A: Yes. Macadam is a coated canvas that resists light rain and splashes, making it practical for everyday use. It is not fully waterproof, so wipe off moisture promptly and avoid soaking. Keep the leather trim dry to preserve its finish.
Q: How should I clean and care for the pouch? A: For the coated canvas, use a soft, slightly damp cloth with a little mild soap if needed, then wipe dry immediately. Avoid harsh chemicals, alcohol‑based wipes, and abrasive sponges, which can damage the coating. For the leather trim, use a suitable leather cleaner/conditioner sparingly and test first. Store the pouch loosely stuffed in a breathable dust bag in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and humidity. Do not overfill to maintain its shape and protect the zip and seams.
Q: What is the Macadam pattern, and is it the same as Triomphe canvas? A: The Macadam motif is Céline’s heritage monogram from the 1970s. Today, Céline refers to its historic monogram as Triomphe canvas, a chain‑link design inspired by the Arc de Triomphe in Paris. Many vintage pieces, like this pouch, are commonly described as Macadam, while modern collections use the Triomphe name.
Q: Is this piece vintage and what is the condition? A: Yes, it is a vintage Céline accessory. This example is in very good overall condition with a minor scuff on the exterior, a clean interior showing light signs of use, and shiny hardware with light surface scratches. Please review the photos for the most accurate view of wear.
Q: Does it come with a strap or any accessories? A: No. This listing is for the pouch only and does not include a strap or additional accessories. Everything included is stated in the Accessories section on this page.
Q: How is authenticity verified? A: Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes multi‑point authentication by our in‑house experts, assessing materials, stitching, hardware, stamps, and coding where present. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can provide additional photos or details on request.
Q: Where is the serial/date code on vintage Céline pieces, and how do you read it? A: Many vintage Céline bags and small leather goods have a code stamped on a small leather tab or discreetly along an interior seam or pocket. Formats vary by era, but a common structure uses letters for the factory and four digits indicating the week and year of production. Not all styles or years display the code prominently, and the presence of a code alone does not guarantee authenticity; it is one factor within our broader assessment.
Q: How can I use this pouch day‑to‑day? A: Its compact size makes it versatile: use it as a cosmetic bag, a tech/cord organiser, a catch‑all inside a tote, or as a minimalist clutch for quick errands. The neutral brown Macadam canvas and tan leather trim pair easily with casual and smart looks for any gender.
