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 this bag? A: With measurements of approximately 22 x 13 x 3 cm, it is best suited to daily essentials such as a phone, cardholder, keys, lipstick and other small items. A bulky wallet, large sunglasses case or water bottle would be too much for this slim shape. Please compare your own essentials with the measurements shown on this page for the best guide.
Q: Will it fit a phone? A: Most standard smartphones should fit, especially without a bulky case. As this is a slim vintage pochette, larger phones or thicker cases may take up much of the available space, so checking your device against the listed measurements is recommended.
Q: Can it be worn on the shoulder or crossbody? A: This piece comes with a single detachable short leather strap with a listed measurement of 16 cm. It is best carried as a hand-held pouch or a short shoulder bag. It is not a true crossbody as supplied.
Q: Is the strap detachable? A: Yes. The flat leather strap is detachable, so the bag can also be styled as a compact clutch.
Q: What does the date code BJ0012 mean? A: Louis Vuitton date codes from this era indicate the place and date of production rather than a unique serial number. BJ corresponds to France, and 0012 decodes to January 2002.
Q: Is the patina on the leather normal? A: Yes. Louis Vuitton’s natural Vachetta leather is designed to darken and develop patina over time. On this item, the leather shows a light patina and some marks, which is normal for a vintage piece and reflected in the condition notes.
Q: What condition is this bag in? A: The overall condition is Very Good. The exterior shows light patina and some marks to the Vachetta leather, the interior shows light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. Please review the photos and condition details for the clearest impression.
Q: Does it come with any extras? A: No additional inclusions are listed for this item. Please refer to the product information section for the exact contents included with your purchase.
Q: How should I care for the Monogram canvas and Vachetta leather? A: The coated canvas can be wiped gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth if needed. The natural leather trim is more delicate and can mark or darken with moisture, oils, hand cream and prolonged sun exposure, so it is best handled with clean, dry hands and stored in a cool, dry place.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is vetted by in-house experts using detailed checks of materials, construction, hardware, stamps and date codes. The date code is one useful indicator, but it is never relied on by itself.
