Made for chic days and sleek nights, this vintage Fendi Zucca Baguette is the perfect companion for dinner dates, gallery openings, and weekend brunches. The brown Zucca canvas and gold-tone accents bring effortless polish, elevating denim by day and a little black dress after dark.
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 Fendi Zucca Baguette? A: With measurements of approximately 25 × 15 × 4 cm, it comfortably carries a smartphone, a small or slim continental wallet, keys, and a few small essentials like lip balm or a compact. Bulky cases, water bottles, and tablets will not fit; please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact sizing.
Q: Is the strap adjustable or suitable for crossbody wear? A: The shoulder strap is adjustable (approx. 19 cm drop) and designed to sit neatly under the arm. It is intended for shoulder carry rather than crossbody on this vintage configuration.
Q: How does the bag close? A: It features a flap with a concealed magnetic fastening; the FF buckle at the front is the decorative clasp face while the magnet secures the flap underneath.
Q: What is Fendi’s Zucca canvas and how should I care for it? A: Zucca is Fendi’s signature FF monogram canvas. For upkeep, gently wipe the canvas with a soft, slightly damp cloth and avoid harsh cleaners or soaking. Keep the bag away from prolonged sunlight and humidity, store it loosely stuffed in a breathable dust bag, and nourish the leather trim sparingly with a suitable leather conditioner.
Q: Is this a vintage piece, and when was the Baguette first introduced? A: Yes, this item is listed as vintage. The Fendi Baguette debuted in 1997, created by Silvia Venturini Fendi, and has since become an iconic under-the-arm shoulder bag.
Q: What size category does this bag fall into compared with other Baguettes? A: The provided measurements align closely with the original/small Baguette profile (the classic under‑arm size). By contrast, the Mamma Baguette is a larger variant with a taller, roomier silhouette. If size is crucial for you, please compare our exact measurements with your intended contents.
Q: What product information is included with this item? A: Everything included is always listed under Product information on this page. For this specific piece, it is listed as having no additional items included.
Q: What are the key condition notes I should know? A: External condition is very good with light traces of use and signs of wear on the strap. The interior is very good with light traces of use, and the hardware is shiny with light scratches. Please review the photos for the most accurate depiction.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag, and where might identifiers be found? A: A Retro Tale authenticates every item through a multi‑point inspection of materials, stitching, hardware, stamps, and construction. Vintage Fendi pieces may show a serial number on or behind a leather tag or on a small fabric tag near the interior pocket; later pieces can include a hologram sticker or RFID. We are happy to provide further product information on request.
Q: Is Zucca canvas rainproof or prone to colour transfer? A: The canvas is durable and resists light splashes, but it is not fully waterproof. If it gets wet, blot dry promptly with a soft cloth and allow it to air dry away from heat. As with most canvas and leather trims, avoid prolonged contact with dark or untreated denim and other dye‑transfer‑prone fabrics to keep the finish looking its best.
