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 is the Fendi Mamma bag, and why is it called the Mamma? A: The Mamma is an iconic Fendi shoulder bag first introduced in the late 1990s as a roomier take on the Baguette. It is known for its under-the-arm silhouette, making it a classic choice for anyone who loves vintage Fendi with a practical everyday shape.
Q: What typically fits inside this bag? A: With approximate measurements of 28 x 18 x 10 cm, this bag is best for daily essentials such as a phone, keys, cardholder or small wallet, sunglasses, and a few cosmetics. It is not suited to larger items such as a tablet, laptop, or bulky pouch. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for the exact size.
Q: Can this bag be worn on the shoulder or cross-body? A: This specific piece has a single adjustable shoulder strap with an approximate drop of 20 cm, so it is best suited to shoulder wear. It is not designed as a cross-body bag.
Q: How secure is the closure? A: This bag features a magnetic flap closure, which keeps your essentials covered whilst still being easy to open and close. For the best shape and flap alignment, we recommend avoiding overfilling the bag.
Q: How should I care for a raffia bag with leather trim? A: Raffia should be handled gently and kept away from heavy rain, prolonged moisture, and direct heat. Dust it with a soft dry cloth or very soft brush, and if needed, spot clean carefully with a little cool water and mild soap. Always let it dry naturally, and store it lightly stuffed in a breathable dust bag in a cool, dry place.
Q: What condition is this bag in? A: This item is listed in Very Good condition overall, with light traces of use. The interior also has a light vintage smell, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. As with most vintage raffia bags, small signs of age are normal and part of the character of the piece.
Q: Is a light vintage smell normal in an older bag? A: Yes, a light vintage smell can be normal in pre-owned bags that have been stored over time. It often improves with gentle airing in a dry, well-ventilated room. We do not recommend using strong perfume sprays or harsh deodorisers, as these may affect the raffia, lining, or leather trim.
Q: Does this item come with any extras? A: No, this item is listed with no included extras. Everything included with the purchase is shown in the product information section of this page.
Q: How do you authenticate vintage Fendi bags? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully checked by our in-house experts using a multi-point review of materials, construction, hardware, branding details, and other model-specific characteristics. If you would like more information about this particular piece before purchasing, you are welcome to contact us.
