This vintage Louis Vuitton Biscayne Bay PM in beige Monogram Vernis leather with natural cowhide trim and gold-tone hardware is in very good condition.

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 Vernis Biscayne Bay PM Bag? A: This is a compact day-to-evening shoulder bag. It will usually fit a phone, a compact wallet, keys, sunglasses, and a few small essentials. For the best sense of capacity, please refer to the Measurements on this page, which are approximately 25 x 18 x 7 cm.
Q: Can this bag be worn on the shoulder? A: Yes. The Biscayne Bay PM is designed with dual flat shoulder straps and a handle drop of approximately 21 cm. It is intended to be carried on the shoulder or by hand, rather than worn crossbody.
Q: Does this bag come with a long shoulder strap? A: No. This style features dual fixed shoulder straps and does not include a detachable long strap.
Q: What are the main features of this bag? A: This piece is crafted in beige Monogram Vernis leather with natural cowhide trim and gold-tone hardware. It features a flap front with a magnetic closure, a tonal lining, and one internal pocket for smaller essentials.
Q: What is Monogram Vernis leather? A: Monogram Vernis is Louis Vuitton’s glossy, embossed patent-style leather. It is known for its polished shine and raised Monogram pattern, giving the bag a dressier look than classic coated canvas styles.
Q: Is Vernis leather prone to colour transfer or yellowing? A: Yes, this is one of the most common questions buyers ask about light-coloured Vernis pieces. Dark denim, magazines, other leathers, and prolonged sunlight can lead to colour transfer, fading, or yellowing over time, so careful handling is recommended.
Q: How should I care for the Vernis and natural leather trim? A: Avoid overfilling the bag, direct heat, and strong sunlight. Store it in a ventilated area when not in use. For the Vernis surface, use only a soft cloth and avoid contact with highly pigmented materials. For the natural leather trim, avoid water, oils, and household leather treatments, as these can deepen marks and alter the patina.
Q: What does the date code TH0074 mean? A: Louis Vuitton date codes from this period indicate the place and date of production rather than acting as a unique serial number. The code TH0074 is consistent with manufacture in France in July 2004.
Q: What is the condition of this specific bag? A: This bag is rated Very Good overall. The Vachetta leather shows a visible patina with watermarks on the base and trim, the interior shows light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light surface scratches.
Q: Does this item come with anything extra? A: No additional items are included with this piece. Please refer to the product information for the full inclusion details.
Q: How is authenticity checked? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully reviewed by in-house experts using a multi-point authentication process that considers materials, construction, hardware, stamps, and date-code details. If you would like more product information before purchasing, feel free to contact the team.
