Delivery & Returns
Q: What size is the Céline Medium Classic Box Bag? A: The measurements for this piece are approximately 24 x 19 x 7 cm. The strap drop is approximately 45 cm and adjustable, giving it the polished proportions the Medium Classic Box is known for.
Q: What typically fits inside the Medium Classic Box Bag? A: This size is best for daily essentials such as a phone, slim wallet, keys, sunglasses, passport and a few small cosmetics. Because the bag is structured and compartmentalised, it is not ideal for bulkier items.
Q: How is the interior organised? A: The bag is lined in tonal leather and designed with three compartments, which helps keep essentials neatly separated and easy to find.
Q: Can it be worn on the shoulder? A: Yes. It has a single flat adjustable strap with an approximate 45 cm drop, so it is well suited to shoulder wear. Depending on your height and preferred fit, it may also sit as a shorter crossbody.
Q: What colour and hardware does this bag have? A: This piece is listed in burgundy leather with gold-tone hardware, a timeless combination that works especially well from day to evening.
Q: What is the condition of this vintage bag? A: The overall condition is rated Very Good. The exterior shows scratches on the leather, the interior has light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches.
Q: Does the leather show scratches easily? A: The Classic Box style is often chosen for its sleek, structured finish, but that type of leather can show surface marks more readily than heavily grained styles. This particular bag already has scratches on the leather, which is reflected in the condition description.
Q: How should I care for and store it? A: Avoid humidity, perfume, hand cream and rough surfaces. If the leather gets damp, gently dab it with a soft, dry, light-coloured cloth. Store it in a breathable fabric bag, away from heat and direct sunlight, and avoid plastic storage to help preserve the shape and finish.
Q: Does this item come with any extras? A: This item is listed with no extras in the product information, so no additional inclusions are noted.
Q: Is this a vintage piece, and where was it made? A: Yes, it is listed as a vintage Céline bag, and the country of origin is Italy.
