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 Gucci Raffia Horsebit Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 34 x 25 x 3 cm, it is best suited to daily essentials such as a phone, small wallet, keys, sunglasses and a slim cosmetics pouch. Because the profile is quite flat, it works better for compact items than bulky everyday carry.
Q: Will it fit a laptop or A4 papers? A: It is not designed as a work bag. The slim 3 cm depth and 25 cm height mean it is better for personal essentials than a laptop, charger or a thick folder of documents.
Q: Can this bag be worn crossbody? A: This piece is designed primarily as a shoulder bag. The strap drop is approximately 21 cm, which generally sits comfortably on the shoulder, but it is not long enough for a typical crossbody fit.
Q: What are the main features of this bag? A: This vintage Gucci piece is crafted in beige woven raffia with brown leather trim and silver-tone hardware. It has a single flat adjustable shoulder strap, a beige canvas lining, one internal zip pocket and a top zip closure.
Q: Why is the Horsebit design so iconic? A: The Horsebit is one of Gucci’s most recognisable house codes, inspired by equestrian hardware. Buyers and collectors are drawn to Horsebit styles because the motif has deep roots in Gucci’s history and gives the bag a timeless look.
Q: How should I care for a raffia Gucci bag? A: Raffia and leather both benefit from gentle handling. After use, wipe the bag lightly with a soft dry cloth, avoid rain, humidity, direct sunlight and rough surfaces, and do not use harsh cleaners or protective sprays. If the bag gets damp, blot it gently and let it air dry naturally.
Q: Is raffia durable enough for regular use? A: Yes, but it is best treated as a lighter everyday or warm-weather bag rather than an overstuffed carry-all. Raffia can wear beautifully when handled with care, though it is generally more delicate than full leather and should not be overloaded or rubbed against abrasive surfaces.
Q: What condition is this bag in? A: The overall condition is Very Good. There are light traces of use, minor scratches on the leather, stains on the lining and light scratches to the hardware, which remains shiny. Please review the product information and images closely for the best sense of wear.
Q: Does it come with any additional items? A: No additional items are included with this piece. Everything included is reflected in the product information for this listing.
Q: How is a vintage Gucci bag like this usually authenticated? A: Buyers typically look at the overall build quality, stitching, hardware, branding and interior tag details where applicable. With vintage Gucci, a serial reference can help, but craftsmanship and consistency matter just as much as any number.
