Ideal for weekend city breaks and hands-free days, this Céline Triomphe Purse adds polished ease to brunches, gallery visits and dinners. The adjustable strap wears comfortably cross-body while exploring, then on the shoulder for evenings out. A chic compact companion that elevates casual looks and sharp tailoring alike.
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 are the dimensions and what typically fits inside? A: The bag measures approximately 14 × 14 × 4 cm. It comfortably holds small essentials such as a compact cardholder, keys, lipstick, AirPods and receipts. Slim smartphones up to about 14 cm tall may fit; larger models (e.g. most recent iPhone/Android flagships) are likely too tall. Please compare your device to the measurements to be sure.
Q: How can I wear it and is the strap adjustable? A: It has a single adjustable flat shoulder strap with an approximate drop of 52 cm, allowing shoulder or crossbody wear. This style is best suited to light, hands‑free carrying.
Q: Is the strap removable? A: No. This model is designed with a fixed, non‑removable strap.
Q: What is Triomphe canvas and how durable is it? A: Triomphe canvas is a printed, coated canvas paired with calfskin leather trims. The coated canvas is light and hard‑wearing for daily use, while the leather trim adds structure and a premium finish.
Q: Is it water‑resistant? A: The coated canvas resists light rain and splashes, but the leather trim is sensitive to moisture. Wipe dry promptly if wet and avoid prolonged exposure to water or humidity. This bag is not waterproof.
Q: What does the interior look like? A: The bag is lined in brown leather and features one internal slip pocket to organise cards or small items. A zip‑around closure keeps contents secure.
Q: How should I care for it? A: For canvas, wipe with a soft, slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. For leather trims and lining, use a dry microfibre cloth; if conditioning is needed, apply a small amount of a neutral leather conditioner sparingly and test first. Avoid harsh chemicals, oils, alcohol‑based wipes and colour transfer from dark denim. Store loosely filled in its dust bag in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
Q: Does this bag have a serial number or date code? A: Many Céline bags feature an internal alphanumeric date code; placement varies by model and year. Presence or legibility of a code can differ on vintage and pre‑owned pieces. Regardless, this item has been fully authenticated by A Retro Tale using materials, stamps, stitching and hardware checks.
Q: What is included with this item? A: All included items are listed under product information on this page. For this piece, a dust bag is included. If you have questions about what’s included, our team will be happy to help.
Q: Can Céline repair or service this bag in future? A: For aftercare or repairs, Céline Client Service or a Céline boutique can advise on feasibility, lead times and pricing. We recommend keeping proof of purchase and photos of the bag when enquiring.
