Very Good Condition
This vintage Bottega Veneta Small Intrecciato Hobo Bag in brown leather is presented in very good condition. It features a single braided shoulder strap, suede lining and a top zip closure. Ideal for day-to-evening wear, it adds an elegant finish to tailored separates, soft knitwear or relaxed weekend looks.
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 is Intrecciato? A: Intrecciato is Bottega Veneta’s signature woven leather technique. It gives the bag its distinctive texture and a soft, supple feel while keeping the look timeless and recognisable.
Q: What typically fits inside this Small Intrecciato Hobo Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 37 x 26 x 3 cm, it is best suited to daily essentials such as a phone, small wallet, keys, sunglasses and a slim cosmetics pouch. A slim tablet or paperback may fit, but it is not ideal for bulky items or most laptops.
Q: Can this bag be worn comfortably on the shoulder? A: Yes. The single braided strap has an approximate drop of 24 cm, which is generally suitable for shoulder carry. As with most hobo styles, the fit can vary depending on your frame and whether you are wearing heavier outerwear.
Q: Does the bag close securely? A: Yes. This piece features a top zip closure, which helps keep your belongings secure while preserving the relaxed hobo silhouette.
Q: What is the lining like? A: The interior is lined in suede, which gives the bag a soft and luxurious finish. Because suede can mark more easily than smooth leather, it is best to keep pens, liquids and heavily pigmented items in small pouches.
Q: Where was this bag made? A: The country of origin label states Italy.
Q: What condition is this bag in? A: It is listed in Very Good condition. The exterior shows light traces of use with some scuffs and scratches, plus fraying on the zipper pull. Inside there are minor marks, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches.
Q: What product information is included with this item? A: The product information for this piece includes a dust bag and mirror. If an additional item is not listed in the product information, it should not be assumed to be included.
Q: How should I care for Intrecciato leather and the suede interior? A: Store the bag in its dust bag, lightly stuffed to help maintain its shape, and keep it away from rain, oils, make-up, perfume, direct heat and prolonged sunlight. Avoid overfilling, and take extra care with the suede lining as it can pick up marks more easily than smooth leather.
Q: Is this a good everyday bag? A: Yes, if you want an elegant shoulder bag for essentials rather than a large carryall. Its soft hobo shape, zipped top and slim profile make it a versatile day-to-evening option, though the narrow depth means it is better for lighter daily use than for carrying bulky items.
Q: How is authenticity assessed for a vintage Bottega Veneta bag like this? A: For vintage Bottega Veneta pieces, authenticity is typically judged through the overall quality of the leather, weave consistency, construction, hardware and interior details. At A Retro Tale, pre-owned luxury pieces are reviewed by in-house experts before being offered for sale.
