Perfect for polished days in the city, this vintage Gucci Emily Hobo Bag transitions from office meetings to dinner plans. Green pebbled leather and a silver-tone horsebit with tassels offer refined flair, while the comfortable shoulder strap makes it a chic choice for daily wear and weekend brunches 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: Will a laptop or A4 documents fit in this bag? A: Yes. With approximate measurements of 32 × 35 × 12 cm, it comfortably fits A4 papers, a tablet and most 13-inch laptops in a slim sleeve. A slim 14-inch device may fit depending on its case and how the bag is packed—please compare your device to the listed measurements for certainty.
Q: How can this bag be carried and is the strap adjustable? A: It is designed for shoulder carry via a single leather-and-chain strap. The strap is not intended to be adjusted, and the bag is not designed for crossbody wear. The approximate drops are 21 cm for the handle and 46 cm for the shoulder strap.
Q: How does the closure work and is it secure? A: The Emily Hobo features a front flap adorned with Gucci’s horsebit and tassel detail that secures the main compartment. When the flap is closed properly and the bag is not overfilled, it provides secure everyday use.
Q: What is the interior like? A: The interior is lined in beige canvas and includes one internal zipped pocket to organise smaller essentials such as keys, a cardholder or a phone.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything that comes with the bag is listed in the product information section. For this specific piece, no additional items are included unless explicitly stated there.
Q: What is the condition of this vintage piece? A: Overall very good vintage condition with light traces of use. The exterior and interior show minor signs of wear, and the hardware remains shiny with light surface scratches, consistent with gentle use.
Q: What materials and hardware does this style have? A: This example is crafted from green pebbled leather with silver-tone hardware. It features the signature horsebit with tassels at the front and a leather-and-chain shoulder strap. Made in Italy.
Q: How should I care for pebbled leather and the tassels? A: Wipe the leather gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth to remove surface dirt, then dry with a clean cloth. Avoid harsh cleaners, soaking, or prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and rain. Condition sparingly with a quality leather conditioner when the leather feels dry, and store the bag stuffed with tissue in a breathable dust bag to help maintain its shape. Take care not to pull on the tassels and avoid snagging them on sharp surfaces.
Q: Where can I find the Gucci serial number on this style? A: On most modern Gucci bags, the serial number is heat-stamped on the back of the interior leather brand tag, typically in two rows of numbers. It identifies the style and production details but is not a date code.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes rigorous in-house checks—materials, stitching, hardware, heat stamps, and serial tagging—corroborated by specialist tools and databases. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can provide extra photos or details on request.
