This vintage Louis Vuitton Rosewood Avenue in burgundy Monogram Vernis leather with vachetta trim and brass hardware offers a polished day-to-evening look.

Ideal for lunches, city outings, or evening plans, it adds a refined finish to any outfit.
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 Vernis Rosewood Avenue Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 32.5 x 17 x 13.5 cm, it is a compact shoulder bag that should comfortably hold daily essentials such as a phone, long or compact wallet, keys, sunglasses and a small cosmetics pouch. It is best suited to essentials rather than bulky items, as overfilling can affect the shape and zip closure.
Q: Can this bag be worn on the shoulder or crossbody? A: This model has dual flat shoulder straps with an approximately 20 cm drop, so it is designed to sit on the shoulder or be carried by hand. It is not a crossbody style.
Q: What is Monogram Vernis leather? A: Monogram Vernis is Louis Vuitton's glossy, embossed patent-finish leather. It gives the bag a polished, dressier look while still showcasing the Monogram pattern. On this piece, it is paired with natural vachetta leather trim and brass hardware.
Q: Is Vernis leather delicate or prone to colour transfer? A: Vernis can wear very well, but it should be treated with care. Louis Vuitton advises keeping it away from materials that may transfer pigment, such as denim, magazines and other leathers, and prolonged sunlight should also be avoided. Darker shades such as burgundy are generally more forgiving than very light Vernis colours, but careful storage and handling are still important.
Q: How should I care for this bag? A: Wipe the exterior gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth and avoid harsh cleaners, oils, perfume, hand sanitiser and alcohol-based products. The vachetta leather trim should be kept as dry as possible, and if it gets wet it should be blotted straight away. Store the bag in its dust bag in a ventilated place away from heat, humidity and direct sunlight.
Q: What condition is this specific bag in? A: The bag is listed in Very Good condition overall with a light trace of use. The exterior shows some scratches and stains on the straps, the interior is in Very Good condition with light trace of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches.
Q: What is included with this item? A: The product information for this piece includes a dust bag and booklet. If another item is not listed in the product information, it should not be assumed to be included.
Q: Is the serial or date code readable? A: The listing notes that the serial or date code is illegible, so it should be treated as unreadable for this specific item. The bag is also labelled as made in France.
Q: Is this a good everyday or occasion bag? A: Yes. The Rosewood Avenue has a slim, structured shoulder silhouette that works well for day-to-evening use. Its glossy Vernis finish gives it a more polished look than casual canvas styles, while the size remains practical for everyday essentials.
