Delivery & Returns
Q: What typically fits inside this Bvlgari Serpenti Gem Studded Top Handle Bag? A: With measurements of approximately 18 x 15 x 9.5 cm, it is best suited to small essentials such as a phone, card holder, keys, lipstick and other compact daily items. It is more of a compact day-to-evening bag than a large everyday carryall.
Q: How can this bag be carried? A: This model features a single top handle with an approximately 9 cm handle drop, and it also includes a detachable shoulder strap with an approximately 60 cm drop. That gives you the option to carry it by hand or wear it on the shoulder.
Q: How is the interior organised? A: The bag is lined in dark red and has three compartments, which helps keep smaller essentials neatly separated and easy to reach.
Q: Does the bag close securely? A: Yes. It features Bvlgari’s signature snakehead magnetic flap closure, which offers quick access while keeping the contents covered and secure for normal use.
Q: What condition is this bag in? A: It is listed in good condition. The exterior leather shows visible marks, the interior has light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches consistent with careful pre-owned wear.
Q: What is included with the bag? A: The product information lists a detachable shoulder strap. If an extra item such as a box, authenticity card or dust bag is not mentioned in the product information, it should not be assumed to be included.
Q: Where was this bag made? A: The product data lists Italy as the country of origin, which is in keeping with Bvlgari’s Italian leather-goods craftsmanship.
Q: How should I care for the leather, gem studs and hardware? A: Handle it with clean, dry hands and avoid overfilling, rough surfaces, rain and prolonged direct sunlight. Because this is a leather bag with decorative gem studs and gold-tone hardware, store it carefully when not in use and wipe it gently with a soft, dry cloth after wear.
Q: Is this an authentic Bvlgari bag? A: A Retro Tale specialises in authenticated luxury vintage pieces and checks details such as materials, construction, hardware and brand markings before sale. If you would like more item-specific reassurance before purchasing, you can always contact the team for further guidance.
