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 this Bottega Veneta Intrecciato Boston Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 34 × 18 × 18 cm, it comfortably holds day-to-day essentials such as a large smartphone, long wallet, keys, sunglasses case, a cosmetics pouch and a small water bottle. Its rounded Boston shape gives useful depth, though capacity will vary depending on how you pack.
Q: Will it fit a tablet or laptop? A: A small tablet may fit depending on its case and exact dimensions, but the curved zip-top and 18 cm height make the fit snug. It is not suitable for most laptops. Please compare your device with the measurements listed on this page before purchasing.
Q: Can this bag be carried on the shoulder? A: This model has dual rolled leather handles with an approximately 20 cm handle drop. For many people that allows shoulder wear over light layers, though it is best suited to hand carry or carrying in the crook of the arm. It does not include a long strap and is not designed for crossbody wear.
Q: What is Intrecciato, and is it delicate? A: Intrecciato is Bottega Veneta’s signature woven leather technique. It is prized for its soft, refined look and feel, but like most supple woven leather it benefits from mindful use. Avoid overfilling the bag, rubbing it against rough clothing or abrasive surfaces, and prolonged exposure to moisture or heat.
Q: How should I care for the leather and suede lining? A: Store the bag lightly stuffed in its dust bag when not in use, away from direct sunlight, heat, liquids, oils and make-up. A soft dry cloth is best for light surface dust. The suede lining should be treated with extra care, as it can mark more easily than fabric, so try to keep pens, cosmetics and dark dyes protected inside separate pouches.
Q: What condition should I expect from this vintage piece? A: This item is listed in good condition. The exterior has scuffs on the corners and small marks on the leather, the interior shows light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. As with all vintage pieces, gentle wear is part of the bag’s character, so we recommend reviewing all photos carefully.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This bag is delivered with a dust bag. Everything included with the item is listed under the Product information on this page; if something is not listed there, it should not be assumed to be included.
Q: Is it normal for a vintage Bottega Veneta bag not to have a serial number listed? A: Yes. On some older Bottega Veneta bags, the absence of a serial number can be normal. Authentication is typically judged through the overall construction, weave, leather quality, interior stamp and hardware details rather than one feature alone. This item has also been authenticated by A Retro Tale.
Q: Does Bottega Veneta offer aftercare or repairs? A: Bottega Veneta does offer aftercare and repair support through its boutiques and Customer Care, and some iconic bags are covered by the Certificate of Craft programme. Availability depends on the model, age and original point of purchase, so vintage items are usually assessed on a case-by-case basis.
