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 Monogram Fascination Lockit Bag? A: This is a limited-edition Louis Vuitton Lockit from the Fall/Winter 2011 period, finished in glossy patent lambskin with the distinctive Monogram Fascination effect that combines shine with textured monogram detailing. It has a structured top-handle silhouette that gives it a polished, dressy everyday look.
Q: What typically fits inside this bag? A: With approximate measurements of 35 x 28 x 16 cm, this MM-sized bag is well suited to daily essentials such as a long wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses, a cosmetics pouch, and a tablet or A4-sized papers. As always, what fits depends on how you pack and the structure of the bag, so please use the measurements on this page as your best guide.
Q: Does this bag come with a shoulder strap? A: No. This specific bag is designed to be carried by hand using its dual rolled top handles and does not come with a shoulder strap. The handle drop is approximately 12 cm.
Q: How is the interior organised? A: The bag has a top zip closure, a black leather lining, and one internal pocket. The structured shape helps it keep a neat profile while still offering useful room for everyday items.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This item includes a padlock, keys, clochette, and dust bag. Everything included with the bag is listed in the product information for this item.
Q: What is the condition of this particular bag? A: This piece is in very good vintage condition. The exterior shows light traces of use, the interior has scratches and scuffs, and the hardware remains shiny with light surface scratches.
Q: How should patent leather like this be cared for? A: Patent leather should be handled with a little extra care. It is best to avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, heat, oils, alcohol-based products, and materials that may transfer colour, such as dark denim, magazines, or other leathers. For light surface marks, gently wipe with a soft, slightly damp cloth and store the bag in its dust bag with light stuffing to help maintain its shape.
Q: Will this bag keep its structured shape over time? A: The Fascination Lockit is known for its more structured build and rigid top handles, which help it hold its shape better than softer everyday totes. As with most vintage bags, some softening can happen over time with regular use, but proper storage will help preserve the silhouette.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully checked by specialists using a multi-point authentication process that looks at materials, construction, hardware, stamps, and other model-specific details. For vintage Louis Vuitton pieces, any date code that may be present is only one part of the overall authentication assessment.
