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: Is this the vintage Pochette Marelle or the newer Marelle style? A: This listing is for the vintage Louis Vuitton Monogram Pochette Marelle in brown Monogram canvas with tan leather trim and brass hardware. It is a slim, compact vintage piece rather than the newer Marelle styles from later collections.
Q: What typically fits inside this bag? A: With approximate measurements of 24 x 12 x 3 cm, it is best for small daily essentials such as a phone, cardholder, keys, lipstick and a few slim items. Because the profile is narrow, it is not ideal for bulkier items such as a long wallet, sunglasses case or water bottle.
Q: Is the strap adjustable? A: Yes. This bag has an adjustable leather strap, listed at 32. Please refer to the Measurements section on this page for the best indication of how it will fit your preferred style of wear.
Q: What does the code MI0055 mean? A: Louis Vuitton vintage bags typically use a date code rather than a unique serial number. On this piece, MI0055 corresponds to a French-made item from May 2005, which suits the vintage character of the bag.
Q: What condition is this bag in? A: The overall condition is Very Good. The exterior and interior both show light traces of use, while the brass hardware remains shiny with light scratches. As with most vintage Louis Vuitton pieces, gentle ageing in the leather trim and minor signs of wear are part of its character.
Q: What is included with this bag? A: No additional items are included with this piece. If a box, dust bag or any other item is not listed in the product information, it is not included.
Q: How should I care for the Monogram canvas and leather trim? A: Store the bag in a dry, ventilated space and avoid overfilling it so the shape stays neat. The natural leather trim may deepen in colour and develop patina over time. If it gets wet, blot it gently with a soft light-coloured cloth, and avoid harsh cleaners, oils or home remedies on the leather.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is checked by our experts before listing. We assess details such as materials, construction, hardware, stamping and overall consistency to ensure the piece is authentic.
