Very Good Condition
This Louis Vuitton Damier Bloomsbury PM in Ebene canvas is a chic choice for busy days in the city or weekend brunch. In very good vintage condition, it features gold-tone accents, an adjustable shoulder strap, a secure top zip and an exterior front pocket to keep essentials organised. Ideal when you want hands-free ease and timeless LV style from day to evening.
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 dimensions of this Bloomsbury PM and how does it wear? A: This piece measures approximately 32 × 27 × 2 cm with an adjustable shoulder/crossbody strap listed at around 50 cm drop. The slim, lightweight design sits comfortably for hands‑free wear—please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact figures.
Q: What typically fits inside the Bloomsbury PM? A: Daily essentials such as a compact wallet or cardholder, smartphone, keys, sunglasses, and a few small cosmetics fit comfortably. It is not designed for A4 documents, a full‑size tablet or a large water bottle, though a slim e‑reader may fit depending on its size.
Q: Does it have a secure closure and quick‑access storage? A: Yes. The main compartment closes with a top zip for security, and there is a convenient exterior front pocket for items you need to reach quickly, like your phone or travel cards.
Q: Is the strap removable? A: The strap on the Bloomsbury PM is adjustable for shoulder or crossbody carry but is not designed to be detached.
Q: What is the bag made from and how should I care for it? A: It is crafted from Damier Ebene coated canvas with dark brown leather trim and gold‑tone hardware. Wipe canvas with a soft, slightly damp cloth and mild soapy water if needed; avoid alcohol‑ or oil‑based products, colour transfer from dark fabrics, and prolonged exposure to heat or sunlight. Store it loosely stuffed in a breathable dust bag to help maintain its shape.
Q: Is the Bloomsbury PM still available in Louis Vuitton boutiques? A: This model is no longer sold new in boutiques and is now mainly found on the trusted pre‑owned market. Availability will vary by reseller and season.
Q: What does the date code SP2120 mean on this item? A: SP indicates production in France. For this code, the first and third digits denote the week and the second and fourth the year, so SP2120 indicates the 22nd week of 2010. Note that date codes are production markers rather than unique serial numbers.
Q: How does the PM compare to the GM version? A: The PM is the compact, essentials‑focused size for everyday wear. The GM is larger, with more capacity and the ability to hold bulkier items like a small tablet. Both share the same general design and crossbody functionality.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything that comes with the bag is listed under the product information on this page. For this piece, no additional items are included. If you have questions, our team will be happy to help.
Q: How is authenticity ensured? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully authenticated by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks across materials, stitching, hardware, stamps, and date codes. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell.
