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 Garden Party 36? A: With approximate measurements of 39 x 25 x 17 cm, this tote is well suited to everyday essentials such as a long wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses, a pouch, a water bottle and documents. A slim 13-inch laptop or tablet may fit depending on its exact dimensions and sleeve, so please compare your device with the Measurements on this page.
Q: Can this bag be carried on the shoulder? A: The Garden Party 36 is designed for hand carry and short shoulder carry. On this piece, the drop is approximately 15 cm, so it may sit comfortably on the shoulder for some wearers, especially over lighter clothing.
Q: What are Toile and Negonda? A: Toile is the canvas body of the bag, which keeps the tote lighter and more relaxed in look. Negonda is Hermès' grained calfskin, used here for the trim and handles, and it is appreciated for its structured feel and everyday durability.
Q: Does the Garden Party 36 close securely? A: This bag has a snap closure, which makes it easy to access throughout the day. Like many open-top totes, it feels more relaxed than a zipped bag, so small items are best kept in a pouch for extra organisation.
Q: Is the Garden Party 36 a good everyday or work bag? A: Yes. The 36 size is one of the most practical Garden Party formats and is often chosen for daily use because it offers good capacity without feeling oversized. It works well for commuting, shopping, travel essentials and smart casual office use.
Q: How should I care for Toile canvas and Negonda leather? A: Gently wipe the canvas and leather with a soft, dry cloth after use and avoid harsh cleaners, heavy rain, prolonged direct sunlight and overfilling. For storage, keep the bag in its dust bag, lightly stuffed to help maintain its shape, and handle marks or spills promptly.
Q: What does the Square K stamp mean? A: The Square K stamp indicates a 2007 production year, making this a vintage Hermès piece.
Q: What condition is this bag in? A: This bag is listed in very good condition. The exterior shows scuffing on the corners, the interior has light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This piece comes with a box and dust bag. Everything included is listed in the product information for this item.
Q: How is authenticity handled for this bag? A: A Retro Tale specialises in authentic luxury vintage pieces, and this Hermès bag has been reviewed and listed as an authentic pre-owned item based on its materials, construction, hardware and stamp details.
