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 matelassé leather? A: Matelassé is Miu Miu’s signature ruched, quilted-looking leather finish, known for its soft feel and textured, three-dimensional appearance. On the Coffer line, it gives the bag its recognisable slouchy and feminine look.
Q: What typically fits inside this Miu Miu Matelasse Coffer Hobo Bag? A: With measurements of approximately 37 x 34 x 5 cm, it is well suited to daily essentials such as a phone, long wallet, sunglasses, keys, a small cosmetics pouch and a slim notebook or e-reader. Its depth is relatively slim, so bulkier items or a laptop are not recommended.
Q: Is this bag better for hand carry or shoulder wear? A: This piece has a single braided handle with an approximately 12 cm drop. It is usually most comfortable carried in the hand or on the crook of the arm, though it may sit on the shoulder depending on your frame and what you are wearing.
Q: Are the two exterior flap pockets usable? A: Yes. The two outer flap pockets are handy for flatter small items you want to reach quickly, such as cards, receipts, earphones or lip balm. They are best for lighter essentials rather than bulky objects.
Q: Does this bag come with a shoulder strap or other product information? A: No. This item is listed with no product information included, and there is no separate strap noted for this specific piece. Please rely on the Features and Measurements on this page for what is included.
Q: Is the Miu Miu Coffer considered a classic style? A: Yes. The Coffer is one of Miu Miu’s best-known archive bag styles and is closely associated with the brand’s 2000s aesthetic. Its braided handle, push-lock flap and soft matelassé leather make it especially appealing to collectors of vintage Miu Miu.
Q: How should I care for this beige leather bag? A: Handle it gently and avoid overfilling it so the shape stays relaxed but supported. Keep it away from direct heat, strong sunlight, oils, perfume and cosmetics, and store it in a protective dust bag or breathable fabric bag when not in use. Because this is a light beige bag, it is wise to be extra careful around dark denim, pens and dyed fabrics.
Q: What is the condition of this specific bag? A: Overall it is in very good vintage condition. The exterior shows scuffing, minor discolouration and a pen mark, the interior has light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. Please review the photos and condition notes for the best impression before purchasing.
Q: Is this a good everyday bag? A: It can be, if you prefer a soft statement hobo that carries essentials without feeling overly structured. It suits daily city use well, especially if you like vintage bags with personality, but the light colour and soft leather mean it benefits from a little extra care.
