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 Céline Macadam Tote Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 32 x 24 x 9 cm, it is a practical medium everyday tote. It should comfortably hold essentials such as a long wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses, a cosmetics pouch and a small water bottle, with room for a slim notebook or tablet.
Q: Can it be carried on the shoulder? A: Yes. The dual handles have an approximate drop of 25 cm, so this style will usually sit comfortably on the shoulder as well as in the hand.
Q: Will it fit A4 papers or a laptop? A: A4 documents should fit, especially when placed horizontally. For laptops, it is better suited to smaller or slimmer devices; many 13-inch laptops and thick sleeves may be a tight fit, so we recommend comparing your item to the measurements shown on this page.
Q: What is the Macadam pattern? A: Macadam is one of Céline's signature vintage monogram designs, recognised for its repeating geometric motif and understated archive look. It is especially popular on older Céline canvas bags.
Q: What condition is this bag in? A: This piece is listed in Very Good condition. The exterior and interior both show light traces of use, and the gold-tone hardware remains shiny with light surface scratches.
Q: Where was this bag made? A: The country of origin label for this bag states Italy.
Q: Does this bag come with any extras? A: The product information for this item lists no included extras.
Q: How should I care for vintage Macadam canvas and leather trim? A: Wipe the canvas gently with a soft dry or slightly damp cloth, and avoid harsh cleaners, soaking or heavy friction. Keep the leather trim away from excess moisture and prolonged direct sunlight, and store the bag lightly stuffed so it keeps its shape.
Q: Does it have a serial number or date code? A: No serial number is listed in the product information for this piece. Vintage Céline bags often use date codes rather than unique serial numbers, and older examples can vary in format or placement.
Q: How is authenticity checked? A: A Retro Tale states that every item is reviewed and authenticated by trained in-house experts before it is listed. The store also offers an optional third-party digital certificate service for added reassurance.
