This vintage Gucci shoulder bag in black leather with gold-tone hardware offers classic sophistication. In very good condition, it features a single flat shoulder strap, red leather lining, and a turn lock closure. Ideal for lunch dates, city outings, or evenings out, it adds a polished vintage touch to both everyday and dressier looks.
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 Turn Lock Leather Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 22.5 x 17 x 9 cm, it is best suited to daily essentials such as a phone, small wallet or card holder, keys, sunglasses, lipstick, and a few slim personal items. It is a compact vintage shoulder bag rather than a large day bag, so tablets and bulkier items are unlikely to fit comfortably.
Q: Can this bag be worn on the shoulder? A: Yes, it is designed with a single flat shoulder strap and an approximate handle drop of 16 cm. The fit can vary depending on your frame and what you are wearing, but it is intended as a shoulder bag rather than a crossbody style. No separate long strap is listed in the product information.
Q: Is the turn lock closure secure? A: Yes, the flap and turn lock closure help keep your essentials more secure than an open-top design while still being easy to open and close for everyday use.
Q: What condition is the bag in? A: It is listed in Very Good condition overall. The exterior shows light traces of use, the interior shows light traces of use and a light vintage odour, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. As a vintage piece, gentle age-related wear is to be expected.
Q: Does anything come with the bag? A: No extra items are listed with this piece. The product information states that no accompanying items are included, so a box, dust bag, authenticity card, or detachable strap should not be expected unless separately confirmed.
Q: Does it have a serial number or date code? A: A serial number is not listed in the product information for this item. For vintage Gucci bags, serial markings can vary by era and style, and Gucci uses serial numbers rather than Louis Vuitton-style date codes. If you would like us to confirm what is present inside this specific bag, please contact us before purchase.
Q: How should I care for the leather and hardware? A: For vintage leather, gently wipe the surface with a soft, dry cloth after use and keep it away from prolonged heat, humidity, rain, and rough surfaces. Store it in a breathable dust bag or soft cloth bag, lightly stuffed to help maintain its shape, and avoid placing heavier items on top. It is best not to use harsh cleaners or protective sprays.
Q: Is a light vintage odour normal? A: Yes, a light vintage odour can be normal in older pre-loved leather bags and is specifically noted in this item's internal condition. Sensitivity to scent varies from person to person, so it is worth keeping in mind before purchase.
Q: How is this bag authenticated? A: At A Retro Tale, items are reviewed by in-house experts and checked with AI-supported tools. For vintage Gucci bags, authentication typically considers materials, construction, stitching, hardware, stamps or tags, and overall consistency with the style and era.
