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 Louis Vuitton Monogram Recital Bag? A: The Recital is a compact baguette-style shoulder bag measuring approximately 20 x 12 x 6 cm. It is best suited to essentials such as a mobile phone, card holder, keys, lipstick, a small compact and other slim daily items. It is not large enough for a tablet, water bottle or bulky purse.
Q: Can this bag be worn on the shoulder? A: Yes. This model is designed as a short shoulder bag with an under-arm baguette-style fit. The strap drop on this piece is approximately 19 cm, so it sits close to the body rather than wearing like a crossbody bag.
Q: What materials and features does this bag have? A: This piece is crafted in Louis Vuitton Monogram canvas with brown leather trim and brass hardware. It has a single flat shoulder strap, a red lining, one internal pocket and a magnetic flap closure.
Q: Is the Louis Vuitton Recital a good day-to-evening bag? A: Yes. Its small structured shape and neat under-arm silhouette make it a versatile option for both daytime essentials and evening use. It works especially well if you prefer to carry only the basics.
Q: What is the condition of this specific bag? A: This bag is listed in very good overall condition. The exterior shows light traces of use with slight ageing on the leather strap, the interior is in good condition with light use and some darkening to the lining, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches.
Q: Does the bag close securely? A: Yes. The Recital uses a magnetic flap closure, which is practical for quick access while helping keep your essentials covered. As with most compact flap bags, it is best not to overfill it so the flap can sit neatly.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This item is listed with no included extras. Please refer to the product information for the exact inclusions supplied with this bag.
Q: The production code is illegible — is that unusual on a vintage Louis Vuitton bag? A: Not necessarily. On vintage Louis Vuitton pieces, interior production codes can become faint or difficult to read over time due to age and wear. In resale, authenticity is assessed using the overall construction, materials, hardware, stamps and other details rather than relying on the code alone.
Q: How should I care for a vintage Monogram canvas and leather bag like this? A: Wipe the coated canvas gently with a soft dry or slightly damp cloth, and avoid harsh cleaners. The natural leather trim can darken with age and is sensitive to moisture, oils and strong sunlight, so store the bag in a cool dry place and avoid rubbing or overhandling the leather areas.
