Delivery & Returns
Q: What typically fits inside the Hermès Garden Party 30? A: With approximate measurements of 30 x 21 x 14 cm, this size is well suited to daily essentials such as a long wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses, a small cosmetics pouch and a compact tablet or notebook. It is best for an edited everyday carry rather than larger work items. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact dimensions.
Q: Can this bag be carried on the shoulder? A: This model has dual rolled leather handles with an approximate handle drop of 12 cm. For most people, that makes it most comfortable to carry by hand or in the crook of the arm rather than over the shoulder.
Q: Does the Garden Party 30 close securely? A: This piece features a snap button closure at the top. Like many Garden Party styles, it offers easy access and a practical open tote design, but it is not a fully zipped bag.
Q: What is Epsom leather like for everyday use? A: Epsom leather is known for its structured feel, light weight and embossed grain, which helps it hold its shape nicely. It is often appreciated for everyday use because the texture can make light wear less noticeable than on smoother leathers.
Q: What is the inside of the bag lined with? A: According to the product information, this bag has a herringbone canvas lining. This gives the interior a practical, lightweight finish that suits everyday use.
Q: What does the serial number C (2018) mean? A: The stamp indicates the bag dates to 2018. For Hermès buyers, the date stamp is one of the details commonly checked alongside leather, hardware, stitching and overall construction when identifying a piece.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This item includes a dust bag. Everything included with the purchase is listed under the product information; if something is not listed there, it should not be assumed to be included.
Q: What condition is this bag in? A: The overall condition is listed as Very Good. The exterior and interior both show light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. As this is a vintage pre-owned item, minor signs of wear are normal and part of its character.
Q: How should I care for this Hermès bag? A: Store it in its dust bag when not in use, keep it away from prolonged humidity, direct heat and strong sunlight, and avoid overfilling it so the shape stays neat. For routine care, use a soft dry cloth and avoid generic leather products unless advised by a specialist familiar with Hermès leathers.
Q: How do you authenticate Hermès bags at A Retro Tale? A: All items are carefully checked for authenticity using key details such as materials, craftsmanship, stamps, hardware and construction. This helps ensure the bag is consistent with the brand’s standards before it is offered for sale.
