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 is the Louis Vuitton Damier Cosmetic Pouch? A: This is a sophisticated accessory designed for organising toiletries and makeup. It is crafted from the robust Damier Ebene coated canvas with dark brown leather trim and gold-tone hardware. Its domed shape and flat base allow it to stand upright, making it convenient for use on dressing tables or whilst travelling.
Q: What fits inside the 19 cm pouch? A: Measuring 19 x 11.5 x 6 cm, this compact pouch (often referred to as the PM size) holds daily essentials such as a compact, lipstick, mascara, and travel-sized skincare. It includes an internal slip pocket for organising smaller items like mirrors or bobby pins.
Q: Is the red lining waterproof? A: The interior features a red lining which is typically a washable, synthetic material designed to resist water and makeup stains. It can be easily wiped down with a damp cloth if spills occur.
Q: Can I wear this as a shoulder bag? A: The pouch is designed to be hand-held or carried inside a larger bag and does not come with strap attachments. However, it is popularly converted by using a specific bag organiser insert with D-rings to attach a chain, though such accessories are not included with this item.
Q: How durable is the Damier Ebene canvas? A: Louis Vuitton’s coated canvas is renowned for its durability and resistance to scratches and water. The Damier Ebene pattern is particularly low-maintenance as the treated dark leather trim does not show water spots or patina like the natural leather on Monogram items.
Q: Where is the date code located? A: On most vintage Cosmetic Pouches, the date code is stamped on a leather tab inside the internal pocket or embossed directly into the lining along a seam. This code helps identify the manufacturing date and location.
Q: What condition is this item in? A: This piece is rated as "Very Good" with a "light trace of use". You may notice minor evidence of wear consistent with a pre-loved vintage item. We recommend zooming in on the provided images to assess the specific details.
Q: Does it come with original packaging? A: No, this item is listed with "no accessories", which means the original box and dust bag are not included.
Q: Is the hardware real gold? A: The hardware is gold-tone brass. On vintage items, it is normal to see some fading or tarnishing of the gold finish over time, which adds to the item’s character.
Q: How do you guarantee authenticity? A: A Retro Tale specialises in authentic luxury vintage. We conduct thorough inspections of the materials, workmanship, hardware, and codes to ensure every piece we sell is a genuine Louis Vuitton product.
