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 Céline Macadam Bag? A: With approximate dimensions of 28 x 15 x 16 cm, this medium bag is best suited to daily essentials such as a phone, small wallet, keys, sunglasses, a compact, and a few small personal items. It is not designed for a laptop or larger tablet.
Q: Can this bag be worn comfortably on the shoulder? A: Yes. This bag features dual flat shoulder straps with an approximate strap drop of 26 cm, which generally allows for comfortable shoulder carry over light to medium layers.
Q: What is the Céline Macadam pattern? A: The Macadam pattern is one of Céline’s historic monogram designs and is especially associated with vintage pieces. It gives the bag its classic old Céline look and makes it a recognisable archival style.
Q: What materials and details does this bag have? A: This piece features Macadam canvas with brown leather trim, gold-tone hardware, a tonal leather lining, a top zip closure, and an attached matching pouch. It is made in Italy.
Q: What is the condition of this specific bag? A: The overall condition is rated Very Good. The exterior shows visible scuffing and darkening on the leather handles and trim, some marks on the logo, and a few small white spots. The interior is in good condition with some marks and scuffs, while the hardware remains shiny with light scratches and some discolouration on the zip pulls.
Q: Does this bag come with anything included? A: Yes. This item includes an attached matching pouch. Any item included with the bag is listed in the product information on this page.
Q: Does this bag have a serial number or date code? A: No serial number is listed for this item. Many Céline bags use date codes rather than unique serial numbers, and some vintage pieces may have older code formats or no easily visible code depending on the era and construction.
Q: How should I care for vintage Macadam canvas and leather trim? A: Gently wipe the canvas with a soft dry or slightly damp cloth, avoid harsh cleaning products, and keep the bag away from excessive moisture, direct sunlight, and heat. Store it lightly stuffed in a breathable dust bag to help preserve its shape, and use leather care only with caution on the trim.
Q: What is the attached pouch useful for? A: The pouch is ideal for keeping smaller essentials organised, such as cards, coins, lipstick, earbuds, or keys, so the main compartment stays tidy and easy to use.
Q: How is a vintage Céline bag typically authenticated? A: Authentication usually involves checking the quality of the canvas and leather, stitching, hardware, logo stamping, construction details, and any interior code or era-specific markers. At A Retro Tale, all items are vetted for authenticity before sale.
