Q: What does the date code AA4135 mean?
A: This code indicates production in France in the 43rd week of 2015. As with Louis Vuitton pieces generally, the code helps identify when and where the bag was made, but it should not be used on its own as the sole test of authenticity.

Q: How should I care for Monogram Macassar canvas?
A: For routine care, gently wipe the coated canvas with a soft damp cloth, and if needed use slightly soapy water. Avoid perfume, oils, alcohol-based products such as hand sanitiser, harsh cleaners, and rough surfaces, as these can damage the canvas or trim over time.

Q: How do you verify authenticity on a pre-owned Louis Vuitton bag?
A: This item is sold by A Retro Tale, a retailer specialising in authentic luxury vintage and second-hand accessories. For pre-owned Louis Vuitton pieces, authenticity is assessed through the overall construction and details of the bag rather than the date code alone.
