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 in the Bolide 25 Cosmetic Pouch (25 × 17 × 8 cm)? A: Daily make-up, skincare minis, travel-size bottles, a compact hairbrush, and small essentials such as keys, cardholder, and most smartphones up to around 6.7 inches. Capacity varies with how you pack; refer to the Measurements on this page for exact dimensions.
Q: Is this the same as the Hermès Bolide handbag? A: No. The cosmetic pouch is a zip-top case designed for organising items or carrying as a small clutch, whereas the Bolide handbag is a structured bag with top handles (and, on some models, a detachable strap). They share the iconic rounded Bolide silhouette and zip lineage but serve different purposes.
Q: Can I use it as a clutch or inside a larger bag? A: Yes. Its structured base lets it sit neatly as a small clutch for casual outings, and its slim profile makes it ideal as an in-bag organiser inside larger totes and handbags.
Q: What materials does this piece have and what is the interior like? A: This vintage piece is crafted in yellow cotton canvas with tan leather trim and silver-tone hardware. It has a beige cotton lining with two internal slip pockets and a zip closure, offering easy organisation of small items.
Q: Is the canvas water-resistant? A: Cotton canvas offers light durability but is not waterproof. Avoid sustained moisture or heavy rain. If it gets lightly wet, blot gently with a soft, dry cloth and allow it to air-dry away from direct heat.
Q: How should I care for the canvas and leather trim? A: For canvas, dust regularly and wipe with a soft, slightly damp cloth if needed; avoid harsh cleaners. For the leather trim, use a clean, dry cloth and keep away from oils, solvents, and prolonged sunlight/heat. Store the pouch loosely stuffed in a breathable dust bag, standing upright in a cool, dry place.
Q: Does it come with a strap or any add-ons? A: This cosmetic pouch is designed without a strap. Everything included with the item is listed under product information on this page. For this specific piece, no additional items such as a dust bag or box are listed.
Q: Where was it made? A: The label indicates France as the country of origin for this piece.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this item? A: Every item is vetted by our in-house experts using multi-point checks of materials, stitching, hardware, logos/stamps, and overall construction. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can share additional photos or details on request.
