This vintage Céline tote bag in burgundy corduroy with brown leather trim offers an understated yet distinctive look. In very good condition, it features dual flat leather handles, brass hardware and an open top. Ideal for everyday city outings, workdays or weekend shopping, it adds a warm retro touch to casual ensembles.
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 Céline Corduroy Tote Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 35 x 35 x 15 cm, it offers room for daily essentials such as a wallet, phone, pouch, notebook, water bottle, sunglasses and a light cardigan. Its horizontal tote shape makes it practical for everyday use, but please use the listed measurements to judge your ideal fit.
Q: Will it fit a laptop? A: A slim 13-inch laptop or tablet may fit depending on its exact size and whether it is in a sleeve. There is no padded laptop compartment, and because this is a vintage open-top tote we would recommend carrying lighter loads rather than overfilling it.
Q: Can it be carried on the shoulder? A: Yes, the dual flat leather handles have an approximate 15 cm drop, so it can usually be carried by hand or on the shoulder. The fit under the arm will depend on your frame and what you are wearing, and it may feel easier over lighter layers than bulky outerwear.
Q: Does the bag have a zip or other closure? A: No, this style has an open top. That gives easy access to your belongings, but if you prefer extra security it is worth using a small pouch for valuables inside.
Q: What is the condition of this bag? A: The overall condition is very good for a vintage piece. The exterior shows visible scuffing and wear on the leather base and trim, the interior has light traces of use, and the brass hardware remains shiny with light scratches.
Q: How should I care for the corduroy and leather trim? A: Brush the corduroy gently with a soft dry brush to lift dust from the pile, and dab marks carefully rather than rubbing. For the leather trim, use a soft dry cloth and avoid contact with water, hand cream, sanitiser, perfume and abrasive surfaces. Store the bag stuffed to help maintain its shape and keep it in a breathable dust bag, never in plastic.
Q: How is this bag authenticated, and should it have a serial number? A: As with all items sold by A Retro Tale, this piece is checked for authenticity before listing. Older Céline bags may feature a date code or interior stamp rather than a unique modern serial number, and placement can vary by era and style. No serial number is listed in the product information for this item.
Q: Is this a vintage Céline bag, and where was it made? A: Yes, this is listed as a vintage Céline tote bag. The country of origin label states Italy.
Q: Does it come with any extra items? A: This listing states that no additional items are included. If something is not mentioned in the product information, it should be assumed not to be part of the sale.
