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 Céline Macadam Boogie Handbag? A: With approximate measurements of 31 x 20 x 13 cm, this bag is well suited to daily essentials such as a long wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses case, small cosmetics pouch, paperback, and other compact items. It offers a practical everyday capacity, though it is not ideal for most laptops or larger A4-sized items.
Q: Can this bag be carried on the shoulder? A: This Boogie style is best carried by hand or in the crook of the arm. The dual rolled handles have an approximate drop of 9 cm, which usually makes it less comfortable as a shoulder bag.
Q: Does this bag fully close with a zip? A: No. This specific piece has an open top, which makes it easy to access your belongings quickly while still offering organised internal storage.
Q: How is the interior organised? A: The interior is lined in brown fabric and features three internal compartments, making it easier to separate essentials such as a purse, phone, and small daily items.
Q: What is the Macadam finish on this bag? A: This bag is crafted in Céline Macadam canvas with brown leather trim and brass hardware. The Macadam pattern is one of the house’s best-known vintage monogram styles and is especially popular among collectors of Old Céline pieces.
Q: Is the Boogie considered a vintage Céline style? A: Yes. The Boogie is an earlier Céline handbag design that became especially associated with the brand’s early 2000s era. It remains a sought-after vintage silhouette thanks to its structured shape and practical day-bag feel.
Q: What is the condition of this specific bag? A: This item is rated Very Good Condition overall. The exterior shows scuffing and tarnish on the corners, the interior has light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches consistent with gentle vintage wear.
Q: What is included with this bag? A: A dust bag is included. Any other included items will always be stated in the product information; if they are not listed there, they are not included.
Q: How should I care for vintage Macadam canvas and leather trim? A: To help preserve the bag, wipe it gently with a soft dry or slightly damp cloth, avoid harsh cleaning products, and keep it away from prolonged moisture, direct heat, and strong sunlight. When not in use, store it lightly stuffed in its dust bag to help maintain its shape.
Q: How is this bag authenticated? A: Every item sold by A Retro Tale is authenticated by in-house experts through a two-step screening process. This helps ensure that each vintage piece is carefully reviewed before it is listed for sale.
