In very good condition with light signs of use; hardware shows tarnishing.
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 are the measurements and strap drop of this Cassandra Wallet on Chain? A: The dimensions of this piece are approximately 17 × 15 × 4 cm with a chain strap drop of about 55 cm. Please see the Measurements on this page for full details.
Q: Is the chain strap adjustable or removable? A: The chain on this item is not length-adjustable. Some Cassandra WOC editions come with a detachable chain, but detachability varies by model and year. If this is important to you, please contact us and we will confirm for this specific piece.
Q: What fits inside day to day? A: It comfortably carries small essentials such as a smartphone up to roughly 16–16.5 cm in length, a few keys, lipstick, and folded notes. The built‑in card slots mean you can leave a bulky wallet at home. To maintain the shape, avoid overfilling.
Q: Will it fit larger phones like an iPhone Pro Max? A: Most larger phones fit sideways without a thick case given the 17 cm width; very bulky or rugged cases may need to be removed for an easy fit. If you’d like, we can provide an at‑request test fit before shipping.
Q: How does the pivoting YSL clasp work? A: Gently rotate the YSL monogram to release the flap, then lift to open. To close, align the clasp and rotate back until it clicks into place. Avoid forcing the mechanism and keep the area free of debris to protect the hardware.
Q: What is the interior layout? A: The Cassandra WOC typically features one main compartment, a flat slip pocket and several built‑in card slots for streamlined organisation. This item has a black leather‑lined interior with multiple compartments and card slots as noted in the product information.
Q: What leather is this and how should I care for it? A: It is crafted from grain de poudre (grained) calfskin, chosen for its textured, scratch‑resistant finish. Wipe with a soft, dry cloth, keep away from oils, perfumes and prolonged sunlight, and store loosely stuffed in its dust bag. Avoid harsh cleaners; a professional leather specialist is recommended for deeper care.
Q: Is it suitable for crossbody wear and evening occasions? A: Yes. The structured silhouette and 55 cm chain drop make it a versatile crossbody for hands‑free wear, while the compact profile and YSL clasp suit dressier settings.
Q: What is included with this item and how is authenticity ensured? A: As listed in the product information, this piece comes with a box, dust bag and authenticity card. Every item at A Retro Tale is thoroughly authenticated by our in‑house experts before listing. This item is graded Very Good with light signs of use; please note the hardware shows tarnishing as described and photographed.
