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 is Bottega Veneta Intrecciato Mirage leather? A: Intrecciato Mirage is Bottega Veneta’s softer, lighter interpretation of its signature Intrecciato look. Rather than a fully hand-woven construction, the Mirage line is known for an engraved or embossed Intrecciato effect on leather, giving the bag the house’s iconic texture in a more understated finish.
Q: What typically fits inside this tote bag? A: With approximate measurements of 38 x 26 x 20 cm, this tote is well suited to everyday essentials such as a long wallet, phone, sunglasses case, cosmetic pouch, water bottle and tablet. A slim 13-inch laptop may fit depending on its exact dimensions and how you place it, but we recommend comparing your device to the measurements on this page before purchasing.
Q: Can this bag be carried on the shoulder? A: It has dual flat leather handles with an approximate handle drop of 12 cm. That means it may sit on the shoulder with lighter layers, but it is generally best suited to hand carry or carrying in the crook of the arm.
Q: Does this tote have a zip or other closure? A: No. This particular bag has an open top, which gives easy access and a relaxed everyday feel. If you like extra organisation or security, a slim pouch or organiser inside can be helpful.
Q: Is this a good everyday or work bag? A: Yes, it works well as an elegant daily tote thanks to its roomy shape and lightweight open-top style. It is especially practical for essentials, small extras and day-to-day use, though it is best not to overload it in order to help preserve the shape of the leather.
Q: What is the condition of this specific item? A: This bag is listed in very good vintage condition. The exterior shows scuffing on the corners and some scratches, the interior has light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light surface scratches. Please review the product images as they form part of the item description.
Q: Does this bag come with a shoulder strap, dust bag, box or other extra items? A: No extra items are listed for this piece. There is no shoulder strap noted in the product information, and the bag is sold as described on this page only.
Q: How should I care for Bottega Veneta Mirage leather? A: Keep it away from prolonged direct sunlight, heat and heavy rain. If the bag gets wet, dry it promptly with a soft cloth. For regular care, wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth, avoid carrying very heavy items, and store it loosely filled with tissue in a breathable dust bag or similar fabric cover to help maintain its shape.
Q: Does the bag need a serial number to be authentic? A: Not always. No serial number is listed for this item, and on some older Bottega Veneta pieces that is not necessarily unusual. Authenticity is assessed holistically through details such as leather quality, the Intrecciato finish, construction, stamps, hardware and overall craftsmanship. At A Retro Tale, all items are carefully authenticated before listing.
