Q: What typically fits inside the Louis Vuitton Epi Art Deco Clutch? A: With dimensions of approximately 27 × 16.5 × 2.5 cm, this clutch bag is designed for essentials. It comfortably fits a large smartphone (such as a Pro/Max model), a slender cardholder or wallet, keys and a lipstick. Due to its depth of 2.5 cm, it is best suited for flat items; bulky objects like large sunglasses cases or water bottles will not fit.
Q: Does this bag come with a shoulder strap? A: While the original Art Deco model was often designed with attachments for a strap, this specific pre-loved item is listed as a Clutch Bag. A shoulder strap is not listed in the included accessories, implying it is intended to be carried by hand or tucked under the arm. Please refer to the “Accessories” section on this page to confirm exactly what is included.
Q: How secure is the closure and what is the interior layout? A: The bag features a flap secured by a snap closure. Internally, the bag is lined with black leather and features one zipped pocket, ideal for securing smaller items like cards or cash.
Q: What is Epi leather? A: Epi leather is a signature Louis Vuitton material known for its distinctive horizontal textured grain. It is highly durable, water-resistant and rigid, making it excellent for maintaining the bag’s structured shape over time. The Black (Noir) colour on this piece is a classic, versatile choice.
Q: How should I care for vintage Epi leather? A: Epi leather is low-maintenance. To clean, wipe gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals, oils or leather soaps that could alter the finish. When not in use, store the bag upright in its dust bag to prevent the leather from being pressed or marked by other items.
Q: What is the condition of this specific item? A: The condition is listed as: External: Very Good (light trace of use); Internal: Very Good (light trace of use); Hardware: Shiny with light scratches. Please review the photos provided to see the specific details of this vintage piece.
Q: Where are the brand markings located? A: Authentic Louis Vuitton pieces from this era typically bear a “Louis Vuitton Paris Made in France” stamp. This specific bag was manufactured in France. Date codes on vintage Epi bags are often found inside the interior pocket or stamped near the seam.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes a rigorous multi-point authentication process by our in-house experts. We examine materials, stitching, hardware, stamps and construction to ensure the item is a genuine Louis Vuitton piece.
Q: What accessories are included? A: Included items are listed in the “Accessories” field. For this listing, a dust bag is included.
