Perfect for polished days at the office and client meetings, this blue Bottega Veneta Intrecciato 16-inch laptop case keeps your tech elegantly organised. Sleek enough to slip into a tote or carry solo between desk, café and after‑work plans, it brings understated luxury to every commute.
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: Will it fit a 16-inch laptop such as a MacBook Pro? A: With approximate measurements of 34 × 23 × 2 cm, this case is smaller than most 16‑inch laptops. For example, a current 16‑inch MacBook Pro is about 35.6 × 24.8 × 1.7 cm, so it will not fit. This case is better suited to slim devices and tablets measuring under roughly 33 × 22 × 1.5 cm; please compare your device to the Measurements provided on this page.
Q: How do I check if my device will fit? A: Measure the width, height and thickness of your device and allow a small clearance (around 0.5–1 cm) on each side for ease. Screen size alone is not reliable because different laptops with the same advertised screen size can have very different body dimensions.
Q: Is the case padded or rigid? A: It is a slim leather case with fabric lining and a top zip. It offers surface protection against scuffs but it is not a hard shell or shock‑absorbent sleeve. For extra impact protection, consider using a thin protective cover on your device.
Q: What is Intrecciato leather? A: Intrecciato is Bottega Veneta’s signature hand‑woven leather technique that creates a distinctive, supple finish. As with any woven leather, avoid abrasion and sharp edges to prevent rubbing or snagging of the weave.
Q: How should I care for this piece? A: Dust with a soft, dry cloth and store it loosely filled to help it keep its shape. Keep away from water, oils, solvents and prolonged direct sunlight. If conditioning is needed, use a quality leather product very sparingly and test on an inconspicuous area first, or seek professional leather care.
Q: Will the colour rub off on clothing? A: Any smooth, dyed leather can be susceptible to colour transfer when rubbed against light fabrics and vice versa. Avoid prolonged contact with dark denim or abrasive materials, especially in humid or wet conditions.
Q: Does it come with a strap? A: Yes, this example includes a detachable wristlet strap for hand carry.
Q: What comes with the item? A: Everything included is listed in the product information on this page. If a dust bag or box is not shown there, it is not included. You are welcome to contact us for confirmation.
Q: Can I use it as a document pouch or clutch? A: Yes, its slim profile works well for carrying documents, a tablet and other flat essentials for meetings or travel within the stated measurements.
Q: How does A Retro Tale verify authenticity? A: Every item is inspected by our specialists using multi‑point checks of materials, weaving, stitching, hardware and brand markings, and is guaranteed authentic. Additional photos or details can be provided on request.
