This Céline Small Cabas Thais is ideal for relaxed weekend brunches or daytime errands. Crafted in cream textile with brown leather trim and gold-toned hardware, it’s in very good condition. Dual handles, a detachable adjustable strap and a beige textile interior with a pocket keep essentials close, while the open top offers easy access.
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 dimensions of the Céline Small Cabas Thaïs, and what typically fits inside? A: The Small Cabas Thaïs measures approximately 25.5 × 18.5 × 12 cm. It comfortably holds daily essentials such as a phone, compact wallet, keys, sunglasses in a case, a small cosmetics pouch and a 500 ml bottle laid horizontally. It can fit an e‑reader or iPad mini‑sized tablet, but it does not accommodate A4 documents, an 11‑inch tablet or a laptop. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact sizing.
Q: Can it be worn cross‑body and is the strap removable? A: Yes. The bag comes with a leather shoulder strap that is both adjustable and detachable, allowing hand, shoulder or cross‑body carry. The strap drop is around 44–46 cm and the handles have an approximate 11–12 cm drop, offering flexible styling and comfort.
Q: How does the bag close, and what pockets does it have? A: This model has an open top for quick access. Inside there is one flat pocket for small items, and there are two slim outer flat pockets on the sides for travel cards or receipts. The main compartment is open and spacious for everyday essentials.
Q: What materials and hardware does this piece feature? A: The body is crafted in textile with calfskin leather trim, lined in textile, and finished with gold‑tone hardware. Our item is labelled Made in Italy.
Q: Is the Small Cabas Thaïs structured or soft, and is it heavy? A: The textile body keeps the bag lightweight with a softly structured feel. It holds its shape best when not overfilled; using a small organiser pouch can help distribute weight and maintain the silhouette.
Q: How should I care for the textile and leather trim? A: Wipe gently with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth and let it air‑dry away from direct heat. Avoid heavy rain, oils and harsh cleaners. When storing, lightly stuff to support the shape and keep it in a breathable dust bag in a cool, dry place—avoid high heat/humidity and never store in plastic.
Q: Are the side pockets functional? A: Yes. The two outer flat pockets are designed for slim items you need to access quickly, such as travel passes, tickets or receipts. For valuables, we recommend using the interior pocket or a small zipped pouch inside the main compartment.
Q: Does this bag have a serial number or date code? A: Céline bags typically feature a date code rather than a unique serial number. The code is usually found on a small leather tab or stamped on the lining and indicates factory and production timing; it is normal for multiple authentic bags to share the same code format.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed in the product information. For this piece, a dust bag and brand booklet are included.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this item? A: Every item is rigorously vetted by our in‑house experts through multi‑point checks of materials, stitching, hardware, stamps and date codes. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and are happy to share additional details on request.
