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 Gucci Guccissima Princy Tote Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 37 x 22 x 12 cm, this tote is well suited to daily essentials such as a wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses, a cosmetic pouch, and a small notebook. It can also accommodate a compact tablet, but most laptops will be too large. Please refer to the measurements on this page for the best guide to fit.
Q: Can this bag be worn on the shoulder? A: Yes. This Princy Tote features dual flat shoulder straps with an approximate strap drop of 20 cm, so it is generally comfortable to carry on the shoulder or in hand. Fit can vary slightly depending on what you are wearing and how full the bag is.
Q: Does this tote close securely? A: Yes. This specific item has a top zip closure, which helps keep your belongings more secure than an open-top tote while still allowing easy everyday access.
Q: What is Guccissima leather? A: Guccissima is Gucci’s signature embossed leather, finished with the repeating GG motif. It gives the bag a recognisable house look, a softly structured feel, and a more textured appearance than plain smooth leather.
Q: Does the bag have any interior pockets? A: Yes. The bag is lined in patterned canvas and includes an internal zip pocket, which is useful for smaller valuables or items you want to keep separate from the main compartment.
Q: Is this bag suitable for everyday use? A: Yes, this is one of the reasons the Princy Tote remains popular on the resale market. Its medium tote shape, shoulder straps, and secure zip top make it a practical choice for everyday essentials, shopping, lunches, or smart day-to-day use.
Q: What condition is this item in? A: This bag is listed in Very Good condition. The exterior and interior show light traces of use, while the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. As a vintage piece, gentle signs of wear are normal and part of its character.
Q: Does this item come with any additional inclusions? A: No additional inclusions are listed for this piece. If an item is not mentioned in the product information, it should be considered not included.
Q: How should I care for vintage Gucci embossed leather? A: Gently wipe the bag with a soft, dry cloth after use and avoid prolonged exposure to rain, humidity, direct sunlight, heat, and rough surfaces. Store it lightly stuffed in a breathable dust bag to help maintain its shape, and use a specialist leather professional for deeper cleaning if needed.
Q: Where was this bag made? A: This specific piece is marked as made in Italy, which is consistent with Gucci’s long-standing production heritage for many of its leather handbags.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully checked by in-house experts. Authentication is based on a combination of details such as materials, construction, stitching, hardware, stamps, and overall consistency, so you can shop with confidence.
