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 measurements and strap drop of the Super Mini Dionysus? A: This piece measures approximately 16.5 × 10 × 4 cm, with a chain drop of about 60 cm. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for full details.
Q: Will my mobile phone fit inside? A: It suits smaller phones and slim cases. As a guide, it accommodates devices up to roughly 14.7 × 6.9 × 0.8 cm (about 5.8 × 2.7 × 0.3 in). Larger models such as many Pro/Max-sized phones generally do not fit or require the case to be removed.
Q: What typically fits inside day-to-day? A: Think true essentials: a compact cardholder, keys, lipstick, small hand sanitiser, and wireless earbuds. Due to its structured shape, packing flat, slim items makes the best use of space.
Q: Is the chain strap removable or adjustable? A: The chain strap is removable to allow clutch carry, but it is not adjustable. Most people wear it crossbody or on the shoulder thanks to the approximate 60 cm drop.
Q: Does it have an interior key ring and what is it for? A: Yes. The interior key ring can secure your keys or be used to attach the Super Mini to a larger bag for added versatility.
Q: How does the bag close? A: It features a flap with the signature tiger head spur detail; on this specific piece the flap secures with a button closure, as shown in our photos.
Q: What materials is this item made from? A: This vintage edition is crafted in GG velvet with black leather trim, light brown leather lining and silver-toned hardware, finished with a crystal-embellished tiger head spur, as described in the product information.
Q: How should I care for the GG velvet and leather trim? A: Protect from direct light, heat and rain; avoid contact with liquids, cosmetics and darker fabrics that may transfer colour. Store lightly filled in a breathable dust bag to preserve shape, and avoid overfilling or prolonged friction on the velvet surface.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under the product information on this page. For this listing, no additional items are noted.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this bag? A: Every item is rigorously vetted by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, stitching, hardware, stamps and construction. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and are happy to provide further details on request.
