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 Miu Miu Matelassé Nappa Crystal Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 34 x 21 x 3 cm, it is best suited to daily essentials such as a phone, wallet or card holder, keys, sunglasses and a few small cosmetics. Because the profile is slim, bulkier items and most tablets or laptops will not fit comfortably.
Q: How can this bag be carried? A: This piece features a braided leather shoulder handle with a 24 cm drop and a second detachable shoulder strap, so it can be worn on the shoulder or styled as a more dressed-up day-to-evening bag.
Q: Is the matelassé nappa leather soft or structured? A: Miu Miu’s matelassé nappa is known for its soft, padded and textured finish rather than a rigid, boxy structure. That gives the bag its signature look, but it also means the leather can develop gentle creasing and a softer shape over time.
Q: Is this bag delicate for everyday use? A: Yes, it is best treated as a delicate luxury leather bag. To help preserve it, avoid overfilling, rough surfaces, rain, direct heat, oils, perfume and prolonged pressure on the crystal details. Store it lightly stuffed in a protective dust bag when not in use.
Q: How secure is the closure and interior? A: The bag has a crystal-embellished turn-lock closure and one internal pocket. It keeps essentials secure, though the slim depth makes it better for lighter daily items than bulky contents.
Q: What condition is this vintage piece in? A: This item is in very good vintage condition. The exterior and interior both show light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This item includes a detachable shoulder strap and an authenticity certificate card. Everything included with the purchase is listed in the product information on this page.
Q: Can Miu Miu repair vintage bags like this? A: Miu Miu states that repairs are assessed case by case through its stores or Client Service. For a vintage piece, availability of parts or specific crystal components may vary, but a professional assessment is still worth requesting if needed.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: This bag has been authenticated before sale and is listed as made in Italy. Details typically checked on Miu Miu bags include the leather quality, matelassé finish, hardware, lining, logo details and overall construction, and this piece also comes with an authenticity certificate card.
