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 Intrecciato Kisslock Coin Purse? A: With approximate measurements of 11 × 9 × 2 cm, it comfortably holds coins, folded notes, a few cards (around 2–4), a key and small essentials like a lip balm. It is not sized for smartphones. Capacity depends on how you pack; please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact dimensions.
Q: Is the kisslock closure secure for daily use? A: Kisslock frames use a firm metal clasp that snaps shut when properly aligned, offering reliable security for coins and small items. To keep it secure, avoid overfilling and close it fully before use. As with many vintage frames, long-term heavy use can lead to minor loosening; a specialist may be able to adjust the frame, though outcomes vary.
Q: Will the clasp or hardware affect my bank cards? A: The kisslock is a mechanical (non‑magnetic) clasp, so it will not interfere with modern chip cards. As a general rule, keep cards away from strong external magnets and store them in dedicated slots to protect the magnetic stripe on older cards.
Q: How should I care for the metallic Intrecciato leather? A: Handle with care and avoid contact with liquids, creams, oils, make‑up and perfumes. Keep away from direct sunlight, heat and abrasive surfaces. Metallic finishes can show surface scuffs from friction, so rotate use and store separately to minimise rubbing. Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth and consult a luxury leather specialist for deeper care.
Q: Any tips for cleaning the fabric lining? A: Empty the purse and shake out loose debris. For light marks, dab (do not rub) with a barely damp, lint‑free cloth. Avoid soaking the fabric or using harsh solvents. For persistent stains, seek a professional cleaner experienced with luxury small leather goods.
Q: Where was this piece made? A: The country of origin label states Italy. Bottega Veneta is renowned for its Italian craftsmanship and its signature Intrecciato weave.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This piece is listed with no additional product information included. Everything that comes with the item is detailed under the Product information section on this page; if a dust bag or care card is not listed there, it is not included.
Q: Is it unisex and will it fit in a pocket? A: Yes. The minimalist design and compact size suit any wardrobe, and it slips into most coat pockets and small handbags. Please check the measurements to ensure it suits your needs.
Q: How do you authenticate it? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully vetted by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of leather, weave, stitching, hardware and brand markings. We guarantee authenticity and can provide additional details or photos on request.
