This Céline Crécy Bag in beige canvas with brown leather trim and gold-tone hardware is in very good vintage condition. Finished with a single shoulder strap, leather lining with internal pockets and a flap closure, it is a refined choice for daytime outings, city lunches or casual evening plans.
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 the Céline Crécy Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 23.5 x 16 x 6 cm, this bag is best suited to daily essentials such as a phone, cardholder or compact wallet, keys, sunglasses and a few small cosmetics. Because it is a slim flap shoulder bag, bulkier items such as a water bottle, large purse or tablet are unlikely to fit comfortably.
Q: Is this bag designed for shoulder or crossbody wear? A: This piece has a single strap with an approximate 27 cm drop. That usually places it in shoulder-bag territory rather than crossbody, so it is best suited to wearing on the shoulder or tucked neatly under the arm.
Q: What materials and colours does this bag feature? A: According to the product information, this bag combines beige canvas with brown leather trim, gold-tone hardware and a leather-lined interior. The neutral palette makes it especially easy to style across seasons.
Q: Does it have pockets or compartments inside? A: Yes. The product information notes a leather lining with internal pockets, which is useful for organising smaller essentials. It also has a flap closure for a structured and secure finish.
Q: What condition is this particular item in? A: Overall, it is listed in very good condition. The exterior shows scuffing on the leather edges, the interior has marks and a vintage smell, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. As a vintage item, these signs of age are part of its character and history.
Q: What is included with this item? A: The product information states that no additional inclusions come with this bag. If you are looking for items such as a dust bag, box or card, only what is specifically listed in the product information should be expected.
Q: Does this bag have a serial number or date code? A: No serial number is listed in the product information for this piece. With Céline, many bags use date codes rather than unique serial numbers, and vintage examples can vary in placement and format, so authentication should never rely on one mark alone.
Q: How should I care for the canvas and leather trim? A: Gently wipe the canvas with a soft, dry cloth and avoid over-wetting the leather trim. Keep the bag away from rain, hand cream, perfume, heat and abrasive surfaces, and store it in a breathable fabric bag rather than plastic. Light stuffing can also help the bag keep its shape when not in use.
Q: Can the vintage smell be reduced? A: A light vintage or storage scent is not unusual in older bags. Gentle airing in a dry, shaded place can help over time, and some owners use odour absorbers kept separate from the bag rather than placed directly on the leather or lining. Avoid harsh sprays or strong household cleaners, as these can damage the materials.
Q: How is a vintage Céline bag like this usually authenticated? A: For vintage Céline bags, specialists typically assess the overall construction, materials, stitching, hardware, lining and brand details together. That is especially important for older pieces, where date-code placement and format may vary from one era or model to another.
