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 makes the Louis Vuitton Murakami Alma PM special? A: This style comes from the Takashi Murakami Monogram Multicolore line, first introduced in 2003. It combines the classic structured Alma shape with the playful multicolour monogram on a black canvas base, which makes it especially appealing to collectors and lovers of early-2000s Louis Vuitton.
Q: What typically fits inside the Alma PM? A: With approximate measurements of 34 × 23 × 16 cm, it works well as a practical day bag. It will typically hold a long wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses, a small cosmetics pouch and other daily essentials. Depending on the dimensions, a small tablet may also fit, but we recommend using the Measurements on this page as your guide.
Q: Can this bag be worn on the shoulder or crossbody? A: No. This specific piece is designed to be carried by hand, with dual rolled handles and an approximate handle drop of 11 cm. No shoulder strap is listed in the product information for this item.
Q: What is included with this bag? A: The listed product information for this piece includes a clochette and padlock. If another item is not listed in the product information, it should not be assumed to be included.
Q: What does the date code FL2112 mean? A: FL indicates production in France, while the numeric code points to the 21st week of 2012. As with Louis Vuitton generally, the date code helps indicate where and when the bag was made, but it should not be used on its own to confirm authenticity.
Q: What condition is this bag in? A: It is listed in Very Good condition. The Vachetta leather shows visible patina, along with watermarks and scuffing on the base and trim. Inside, there are light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light surface scratches.
Q: Is patina on the Vachetta leather normal? A: Yes. Vachetta is a natural untreated leather that darkens and develops character over time. On vintage Louis Vuitton bags, changes in tone, light marking and water spots are common, and this bag’s existing patina is already reflected in the condition notes.
Q: How should I care for the multicolour canvas and Vachetta leather? A: Avoid rain, oils, friction and prolonged direct sunlight. Do not overfill the bag, and store it in a breathable dust bag or another ventilated space when not in use. Clean gently with a soft cloth and avoid harsh cleaners or home remedies on the natural leather trim.
Q: How should authenticity be assessed on a vintage Murakami Alma PM? A: Authenticity should be judged through the full combination of materials, stitching, hardware, shape, interior details, date code and overall consistency with the model. The date code is helpful, but no single detail should be relied on in isolation.
