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 the Hermès Victoria 35? A: With measurements of approximately 37 x 22 x 16 cm, this size comfortably fits daily essentials plus extras such as a long wallet, phone, cosmetic pouch, sunglasses case, a small tablet, and a light layer. For travel, it works best for an overnight stay or a lightly packed weekend rather than bulky packing.
Q: Can this bag be carried on the shoulder? A: Yes. The Victoria 35 has dual rolled leather handles with an approximate 21 cm drop, so many people find it comfortable to carry on the shoulder or in the hand. When the bag is packed full or worn with a thicker coat, the fit may feel a little more snug.
Q: Does this bag come with a shoulder strap? A: No. This version is designed with dual rolled leather handles and does not include a detachable shoulder strap.
Q: Is Clemence leather a good choice for everyday use? A: Yes. Hermès Clemence leather is known for its supple feel, natural grain, and relaxed appearance. It is especially well suited to larger, softer silhouettes like the Victoria, offering a luxurious look while remaining practical for regular use.
Q: Will Clemence leather keep its shape over time? A: Clemence is a soft leather, so it is normal for it to become more relaxed and slightly slouchier with wear. Many collectors appreciate this casual, elegant look, but if you prefer a very rigid shape, softer leathers naturally change more over time.
Q: How should I care for this bag? A: Store it in a dry, temperate place away from direct sunlight and heat. If it gets wet, blot it promptly with a soft lint-free cloth. Avoid overfilling, and keep it away from ink, oils, perfume, and household leather treatments. For deeper cleaning or restoration, professional care is recommended.
Q: What does the blind stamp Square Q mean? A: Square Q indicates a 2013 production year. On pre-owned Hermès bags, the blind stamp is an important dating detail, but it should always be considered together with craftsmanship, materials, hardware, and overall construction when assessing authenticity.
Q: What is included with this bag? A: This bag includes a padlock, keys, and a clochette. Everything included with the item is listed in the product information on this page.
Q: What is the condition of this bag? A: The overall condition is very good, with light traces of use to the exterior and interior. The hardware remains shiny with light scratches. As this is a vintage piece, gentle signs of wear are normal and part of its character.
Q: How secure is the closure? A: It features a two-way zip closure, which helps keep your belongings enclosed while still allowing easy access. The lock and key set add a classic Hermès finishing detail.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully checked by in-house experts using a multi-point review of materials, stitching, hardware, stamps, and date codes. We stand behind the authenticity of the pieces we sell.
