This vintage Saint Laurent Seau Fermoir bucket bag in black leather with gold-tone hardware is in very good condition. With its adjustable shoulder strap, tonal suede lining and signature YSL hook closure, it is an elegant choice for city days, lunch dates or evening plans.
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 Saint Laurent Seau Fermoir Bucket Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 26 x 17 x 17 cm, this bag is well suited to daily essentials such as a phone, small wallet or card holder, keys, sunglasses, and a small cosmetic pouch. It offers a practical bucket shape, but it is not designed for larger items such as a laptop, A4 documents, or bulky tech.
Q: Can this bag be worn on the shoulder or crossbody? A: It features a single adjustable strap with a listed measurement of 52 cm. It is primarily suited to shoulder wear, and depending on your height and preferred fit, it may also work as a relaxed crossbody. We recommend comparing the strap measurement with a bag you already wear comfortably.
Q: How secure is the closure? A: This style has a signature YSL hook closure at the top. It keeps the bag more secure than a fully open bucket style while maintaining the elegant silhouette of the design. As it is not a full zip-top closure, we recommend keeping very small loose items in an internal pouch for extra security.
Q: What materials and details does this bag have? A: This piece is crafted in black leather with gold-tone hardware and a tonal suede lining. It has the distinctive Seau Fermoir bucket silhouette and a refined, minimalist Saint Laurent look that works well for both day and evening use.
Q: What is the condition of this bag? A: The overall condition is rated Very Good. There are light traces of use to the exterior, scratches on the inside, and light scratches to the hardware, which remains shiny. This is consistent with a well-kept vintage piece and has been reflected in the price and condition notes.
Q: What product information is included with this item? A: This item includes a box. If any other original items are not listed in the product information on this page, they should be considered not included.
Q: Is this a good everyday size? A: Yes, if you prefer a compact to medium everyday bag. The bucket shape gives you useful vertical space for essentials, while the relatively slim footprint keeps it easy to carry. It is a strong choice for daily errands, lunch meetings, or evenings out rather than for work-heavy or travel-heavy use.
Q: How should I care for a vintage leather bag with suede lining? A: We recommend gentle care: wipe the leather exterior with a soft, dry cloth, avoid overfilling, and keep it away from prolonged moisture, direct sunlight, and heat. The suede lining should be kept clean and dry, as suede can mark more easily than smooth linings. When not in use, store the bag lightly stuffed to help maintain its shape.
Q: Where was this bag made? A: According to the country of origin label for this item, it was made in France.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully checked by in-house experts using detailed assessments of materials, construction, hardware, stamps, and overall craftsmanship. We stand behind the authenticity of the items we sell.
