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 Louis Vuitton Monogram Noé BB? A: With the listed measurements of 24 x 21 x 14 cm, it is a compact bucket bag that should comfortably hold daily essentials such as a phone, compact wallet, keys, sunglasses, lipstick and a few small extras. It is best suited to essentials rather than bulkier items like a laptop or large water bottle.
Q: Can this bag be worn on the shoulder or crossbody? A: The strap is adjustable, and this style is commonly worn on the shoulder or crossbody. For this specific piece, the strap measurement is listed as 48 cm and adjustable, so the exact fit will depend on your height and where you prefer the bag to sit.
Q: Is the drawstring closure secure enough for everyday use? A: Yes, the Noé BB is designed with a drawstring top that cinches the opening and helps keep contents gathered inside. Like most bucket bags, it is not as tightly closed as a zip-top bag, so valuables are best kept in a pouch or placed lower inside when travelling or commuting.
Q: What materials and details define this bag? A: This piece features Louis Vuitton Monogram canvas with natural Vachetta leather trim, brass hardware, a tonal canvas lining and the house’s iconic bucket-bag silhouette. The leather will naturally develop a richer patina over time, which is part of the appeal of this style.
Q: What does the serial number SA5116 mean? A: Louis Vuitton date codes from this period use two letters followed by four numbers. The numeric part of SA5116 indicates production in the 51st week of 2016. This listing also states France as the country of origin. As with all pre-owned Louis Vuitton items, the date code is only one part of authentication and should be considered alongside overall craftsmanship and construction.
Q: What is the condition of this particular bag? A: It is listed in very good condition. The exterior shows a light patina to the Vachetta leather with minor wear and creasing on the trim and drawstring, the interior has light traces of use with one stain in a corner, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches and minor tarnishing.
Q: How should I care for Monogram canvas and Vachetta leather? A: Wipe the canvas gently with a soft, dry or slightly damp light-coloured cloth and avoid abrasive surfaces, excess moisture, perfume, oils and direct heat or sunlight. Vachetta leather is naturally delicate and will deepen in colour with age, so it is best to protect it from rain and store the bag in a breathable dust bag when not in use.
Q: What is included with this bag? A: This listing states that no additional items are included. For this specific piece, please rely on the product information on this page for what comes with the bag.
Q: How do you verify authenticity on a pre-owned Louis Vuitton bag? A: A reliable authentication process looks at more than the date code alone. Experts assess the monogram alignment, canvas and leather quality, stitching, hardware, heat stamps, interior construction and overall consistency with the model before confirming authenticity.
