Perfect for a smart dinner or gallery evening, the vintage Gucci GG Small Jackie in black GG canvas with leather trim and silver-tone accents adds understated elegance. Compact yet practical, it keeps essentials secure with its piston lock and offers effortless shoulder carry from aperitif to after-hours.
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 how does this Small Jackie wear on the body? A: The bag measures approximately 26 × 15 × 4 cm with an 18 cm handle drop. It is designed to sit neatly under the shoulder and tuck comfortably against the body for everyday wear.
Q: What typically fits inside this size? A: Daily essentials such as a smartphone, small wallet or cardholder, keys, a slim sunglasses sleeve, and a few small cosmetics (lipstick/compact) fit well. Larger items like an iPad mini or a full-size water bottle are not recommended due to the bag’s height and slim depth.
Q: Can it be worn crossbody? A: This vintage Small Jackie is a shoulder bag with a single, non-detachable strap and is intended for shoulder carry. Some modern Jackie 1961 versions include an additional longer strap for crossbody wear, but this specific piece does not include one.
Q: How does the piston-lock closure work and is it secure? A: The signature piston lock is a push-and-click mechanism. To open, press and release the tab; to close, align the clasp and push until it clicks. It keeps contents secure when the bag isn’t overfilled—avoid forcing the lock if the bag is tightly packed.
Q: What is the material and lining on this item? A: It is crafted in black GG canvas with black leather trim and silver-tone hardware. The interior is fabric-lined with one zipped pocket for smaller valuables.
Q: Is the canvas water-resistant? A: The canvas is durable but not fully waterproof. Protect the bag from prolonged rain and wipe away light moisture promptly. Avoid direct heat and sunlight, and store the bag in a cool, dry place when not in use.
Q: How should I care for the GG canvas and leather trim? A: For routine care, gently wipe the canvas with a soft, slightly damp cloth and allow it to air dry. Treat leather trim sparingly with a suitable leather conditioner, and avoid harsh cleaners, excessive moisture, oils, or colour transfer from dark denim. Store the bag lightly stuffed in its dust bag to maintain shape.
Q: Does this bag have an interior pocket? A: Yes, it features a fabric lining with one internal zipped pocket to secure smaller essentials.
Q: What does the serial number mean on Gucci bags—is it a date code? A: Gucci serial numbers typically appear in two rows on a leather tag in many post-1990 pieces, but they are not date codes and cannot, on their own, confirm authenticity. They are one of several checkpoints used during professional authentication.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed in the product information. For this piece, a dust bag is included. If you need clarification, please contact us and we will be happy to help.
