Q: What typically fits inside the Hermès Dalvy 33 Handbag? A: With approximate measurements of 33.5 x 26 x 11 cm, this size is well suited to daily essentials such as a long wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses case, small cosmetics pouch, and a compact tablet or diary. Capacity will vary depending on how you organise the contents, so please refer to the Measurements on this page for the exact size.
Q: Can this bag be carried on the shoulder? A: This specific bag is designed primarily as a handheld top-handle style. The handle drop is approximately 9 cm, so most people will carry it by hand or in the crook of the arm rather than over the shoulder.

A: With approximate measurements of 33.5 x 26 x 11 cm, this size is well suited to daily essentials such as a long wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses case, small cosmetics pouch, and a compact tablet or diary. Capacity will vary depending on how you organise the contents, so please refer to the Measurements on this page for the exact size.
Q: Is the Hermès Dalvy 33 a structured bag? A: Yes. The Dalvy is known for its elegant, structured silhouette and refined top-handle design, which gives it a polished vintage Hermès look. It is a great choice if you prefer a bag that feels classic and more formal than soft, slouchy styles.
Q: Can this bag be carried on the shoulder? A: This specific bag is designed primarily as a handheld top-handle style. The handle drop is approximately 9 cm, so most people will carry it by hand or in the crook of the arm rather than over the shoulder.
Q: What does the Square C (1999) stamp mean? A: The serial stamp Square C indicates production in 1999. On vintage Hermès bags, the blind stamp helps date the piece and is one of the details collectors use when identifying the production period.
Q: Is the Hermès Dalvy considered a rare or discontinued model? A: Yes. The Dalvy is a less commonly seen vintage Hermès handbag and is generally considered a discontinued style, which makes it especially appealing to collectors looking for something more unusual than the house’s better-known lines.
Q: What condition is this bag in? A: This item is listed in very good condition. The exterior shows minor scratches on the leather, along with wear and deep dents on the handle. The interior has light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches.
Q: What is included with this bag? A: This bag comes with a dust bag. Everything included is listed under the product information section; if another item is not listed there, it is not included.
Q: How should I care for a vintage Hermès box leather bag? A: Box leather is prized for its smooth, glossy finish, but it can show scratches and should be handled with care. Avoid rain, excessive humidity, direct heat, and overfilling. After use, wipe gently with a soft dry cloth and store it in its dust bag, ideally lightly stuffed to help maintain its shape.
