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 Louis Vuitton Damier Sauvage Lionne Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 28 x 17 x 7.5 cm, this bag is best suited to daily essentials such as a phone, compact wallet or card holder, keys, sunglasses, and a few small cosmetics. It is a compact top-handle style rather than a larger day bag, so bulkier items are likely to make it feel overfilled.
Q: Can this bag be worn on the shoulder or crossbody? A: No. This style is designed to be carried by hand using its dual leather top handles. The handle drop is approximately 8 cm, and there is no shoulder strap listed for this item.
Q: What is Damier Sauvage and what is this bag made from? A: Damier Sauvage is a rare Louis Vuitton variation of the Damier motif made in treated calf hair, often also described in the resale market as pony hair or hair-on calfskin. This bag is finished with brown leather trim, brass hardware, and a red Alcantara-lined interior.
Q: How is the bag organised inside? A: The bag has a single main compartment with one internal pocket and a magnetic flap closure. It is designed to keep small essentials tidy while maintaining a sleek, structured silhouette.
Q: How should I care for a calf hair Louis Vuitton bag? A: Calf hair should be handled gently and protected from heavy rubbing, overfilling, excess moisture, and direct heat. Store the bag in its dust bag in a ventilated area, avoid harsh cleaners or leather treatments, and if needed lightly smooth the hair in its natural direction with a very soft brush. For the leather trim, a soft damp cloth is usually the safest option for light surface marks.
Q: Is some hair wear or balding normal on this style? A: Yes. On vintage calf hair bags, the most common wear tends to appear on corners, edges, and other high-contact areas over time. This example is listed in very good vintage condition with light traces of use, so minor age-related wear is consistent with the material and age of the piece.
Q: What does the date code CE1010 tell me? A: Louis Vuitton used date codes rather than unique serial numbers on older bags. On pieces from this era, the code format typically indicates the production month and year, so CE1010 generally points to October 2000. As always, a date code is only one part of authentication and should be considered together with materials, construction, hardware, and stamps.
Q: Is the Damier Sauvage Lionne considered a rare style? A: Yes. The Damier Sauvage line is a discontinued and harder-to-find vintage Louis Vuitton line, which is one reason it remains appealing to collectors who want something less common than the classic canvas styles.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This item includes a dust bag. Everything included with the bag is listed in the product information on this page; if something is not listed there, it should not be assumed to be included.
Q: How do you authenticate this item? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully checked by in-house experts using a multi-point review of materials, construction, stitching, hardware, stamps, and date codes. The date code is helpful for dating the bag, but it is never relied on by itself to confirm authenticity.
