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 Truth Toilette 23? A: With measurements of approximately 23 x 16 x 6 cm, it works well for travel-size toiletries, make-up, a passport, cables, a slim phone, or other small daily essentials. It is best suited to compact items rather than bulky full-size bottles.
Q: Can this piece be used as a clutch or pouch organiser? A: Yes. Many collectors use vintage Louis Vuitton toiletry pouches as elegant organisers or simple handheld clutches. This piece has no handle or strap attachments, so it is best carried in hand or placed inside a larger bag.
Q: Is this a vintage Louis Vuitton piece? A: Yes. This is a vintage Monogram toiletry pouch, and its date code places it in an early 1990s production period.
Q: What does the date code TH 0940 mean? A: In Louis Vuitton's older coding system, TH indicates production in France and 0940 corresponds to April 1990. Date codes help identify where and when a piece was made, but they are not a standalone proof of authenticity.
Q: What is the interior layout like? A: The pouch has a beige lining with one internal pocket, which is useful for separating smaller essentials from the main compartment. It also features a top zip closure for easy access.
Q: What condition is this item in? A: The overall condition is listed as Very Good. The exterior shows light traces of use, the lining has stains, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. The zip is noted as dull in the condition report.
Q: What is included with this item? A: No extra items are listed in the product information for this piece. If something is not stated there, it should be assumed not to be included.
Q: How should I care for Monogram canvas? A: Clean the coated canvas gently with a soft damp cloth and, if needed, a little mild soapy water. Avoid perfume, alcohol-based products, oils, harsh cleaners, excess moisture, and prolonged heat or direct sunlight. Store it in a breathable, ventilated space and avoid overfilling it to help maintain its shape.
Q: Is the date code enough to confirm authenticity? A: No. A date code is useful for dating a piece, but it is only one part of authentication. Materials, stitching, hardware, construction, stamps, and overall consistency should all be considered when assessing a vintage Louis Vuitton item.
