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 Bottega Veneta Intrecciato pouch? A: With approximate dimensions of 25 × 15 × 2 cm, it comfortably holds a large smartphone, passport, slim cardholder or small wallet, keys and a few cosmetics. For best results, avoid overfilling so the zip closes smoothly—please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact sizing.
Q: Does this pouch come with a strap or wristlet? A: No. This piece is a handheld, zip-top pouch designed to be carried as a clutch or used as an organiser inside a larger bag. If a strap or wristlet were included, it would be listed under Accessories.
Q: Will a large phone fit? A: Yes. Most large smartphones fit along the 25 cm length. If your device has a very thick case, removing it can create a slimmer profile for an easier zip closure.
Q: Is Intrecciato leather durable for everyday use? A: Intrecciato is a woven leather technique developed to make leather both supple and strong. It wears well with considerate use, but the soft nappa can mark with sharp objects or colour-transfer from dark fabrics. Avoid abrasion against rough surfaces and be mindful of denim rub.
Q: How should I care for the leather and weave? A: Wipe with a soft, dry cloth after use; keep away from water, oils and prolonged sunlight; store loosely stuffed with acid-free tissue in a breathable dust bag; and avoid overstuffing to protect the weave and zip. Use a neutral leather cream sparingly on smooth areas if needed, and consult a professional leather-care specialist for deep cleaning or repairs. Bottega Veneta boutiques offer care guidance, and their Certificate of Craft programme covers selected items purchased new from the brand.
Q: What accessories are included with this item? A: This item is sold as shown with no accessories. If a dust bag or box is included, it will be listed under Accessories. Note that Bottega Veneta does not issue plastic authenticity cards; depending on the production era, pieces may include an interior style/serial tag, and some newer items incorporate an embedded microchip.
Q: Is the colour true to the photos? A: The pouch is a light blue tone. Minor variation can occur due to lighting and screen settings; our studio images are taken to represent the colour as accurately as possible.
Q: Where is it made? A: This piece is labelled Made in Italy, consistent with Bottega Veneta’s tradition of Italian craftsmanship.
Q: How do you authenticate this pouch? A: Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes multi-point checks by our experts, including materials and weave quality, stitching, hardware and zip inspections, logo and font analysis, and verification of interior tags or microchips where applicable. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can provide additional details on request.
Q: The description mentions a slight vintage smell—can it be reduced? A: Yes. Air the pouch in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight; place odour-absorbing sachets like activated charcoal or fragrance-free silica gel nearby; avoid perfumes or harsh deodorisers; and seek a professional leather-care service if needed.
