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 Mini Lin Francoise Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 31 x 29 x 2 cm, this bag is best suited to daily essentials such as a phone, compact wallet, keys, sunglasses, a small pouch and slim documents or a tablet. Because it has a slim profile, it is better for flatter items than bulky ones.
Q: Will A4 papers fit inside? A: Yes, slim A4 documents should fit thanks to the bag’s height and width. However, the narrow 2 cm depth means it is not the best choice for thick folders, bulkier laptops or heavily packed work items.
Q: Does this item come with a shoulder strap or any additional items? A: This particular piece is presented with dual flat leather handles. The product information for this listing states that no additional items are included, so a detachable strap, box or dust bag should not be expected unless separately noted on the page.
Q: Does the bag have pockets or a closure? A: It features an open top and one internal pocket. This keeps the design light and easy to access, though some owners prefer to use a slim pouch or organiser inside for extra structure and organisation.
Q: What does the date code SP0032 mean? A: Louis Vuitton date codes are not unique serial numbers. For pieces from this period, the letters identify the factory location and the numbers indicate the production date. SP indicates France, and 0032 corresponds to production in 2002. A date code helps confirm age and origin, but it should never be used as the only test of authenticity.
Q: What condition is this vintage bag in? A: The overall condition is listed as Very Good. The exterior shows minor rubbing on the corners, the interior has stains inside, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. These signs of wear are consistent with a well-kept vintage item.
Q: How should I care for Mini Lin canvas and the leather trim? A: Clean gently with a soft cloth lightly dampened with water, and if needed use only a very small amount of mild soap on the canvas. Avoid perfume, oils, alcohol-based products, leather lotions and harsh chemicals. Do not overfill the bag, and store it in a ventilated area away from heat to help preserve its shape and materials.
Q: How do you authenticate this Louis Vuitton bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully vetted by experts using checks such as materials, construction, hardware, stamps and date-code details. It is also worth knowing that a Louis Vuitton date code supports authentication, but it is not a standalone proof of authenticity.
