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 this Bottega Veneta Drawstring Bucket Bag? A: With measurements of approximately 23 x 13 x 13 cm, this bag is best suited to daily essentials such as a phone, small wallet or card holder, keys, sunglasses, and a few beauty items. It is not designed for larger tablets, A4 documents, or bulkier everyday carry.
Q: Is this bag better for the shoulder or crossbody wear? A: This style features a single adjustable strap measuring approximately 54 cm and is best described as a shoulder bag. The longer setting may sit lower on the body depending on your height, but it is not presented here as a dedicated crossbody model.
Q: How secure is the drawstring closure? A: The drawstring closure helps keep your belongings gathered and gives the bag its relaxed bucket shape, while still allowing quick access. As with most drawstring bags, it is less fully sealed than a zip-top design, so smaller valuables are best kept neatly contained inside.
Q: What materials and finish does this bag have? A: This vintage piece is crafted in brown suede and perforated leather, with a beige satin lining. The mix of textures gives it a soft, tactile look while keeping the silhouette refined and easy to style.
Q: What condition is this bag in? A: This bag is in very good vintage condition. The exterior and interior both show light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light surface scratches consistent with careful pre-owned wear.
Q: How should I care for suede and perforated leather? A: Suede should be handled with care and kept away from rain, moisture, direct heat, and prolonged sunlight. Use a soft suede brush for light surface maintenance, avoid harsh cleaners, and store the bag in its dust bag when not in use to help protect the shape and finish.
Q: Is this a practical everyday bag? A: Yes, if you prefer to carry a compact edit of essentials. Its bucket shape makes it easy to reach for the items you use most often, while the slim proportions keep it better suited to light daily use than to work, travel, or heavy packing.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This item includes a dust bag. Everything included with the purchase is listed in the product information for this piece.
Q: Where was this bag made? A: According to the product information, this bag was made in Italy, which is in keeping with Bottega Veneta's long-standing Italian craftsmanship heritage.
Q: Is this bag a vintage piece? A: Yes. This is listed as a vintage Bottega Veneta bag, making it a strong option for shoppers looking for an older, characterful design with light signs of authentic pre-owned use.
