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 Céline Macadam Circle Tote Bag? A: With approximate dimensions of 32 x 25 x 11 cm, it works well for daily essentials such as a wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses, a small cosmetics pouch and a compact notebook or tablet. It is a medium everyday tote rather than an oversized carryall, so comparing your items with the Measurements on this page is the best guide.
Q: Can this bag be carried on the shoulder? A: The dual circular handles have an approximate 12 cm drop, so this style is usually most comfortable carried in the hand or on the crook of the arm. It may sit very snugly on the shoulder for some, but it is not designed like a long-strap shoulder tote.
Q: What materials is this bag made from? A: This style is made in Macadam coated canvas with leather trim. That combination gives it the classic vintage Céline monogram look while keeping it lighter and generally easier to wear day to day than a full leather tote.
Q: Does the bag have any interior organisation? A: Yes. Listings for this Macadam circle tote style describe a tonal lined interior with an internal pocket, helpful for keeping smaller essentials separate from the main compartment.
Q: Is coated canvas a practical choice for everyday use? A: Yes. Coated canvas is popular because it is lightweight, relatively durable and easier to wipe clean than many untreated fabrics. As this is a vintage piece, it is still best used with care and not overloaded.
Q: How should I care for a vintage coated-canvas Céline bag? A: Wipe the coated canvas gently with a soft damp cloth and avoid harsh chemicals, oils, alcohol-based cleaners or leather conditioner on the canvas itself. Keep the bag away from prolonged heat, direct sunlight and humidity, and store it lightly stuffed in a breathable storage bag or cupboard space to help preserve its shape.
Q: Does this bag have a serial number or date code? A: Céline bags are generally identified by date codes rather than unique serial numbers, and vintage pieces can vary in both format and placement. This listing does not show a code in the product information, so its absence from the listing alone should not be treated as unusual for an older piece.
Q: What condition is this bag in? A: According to the product information, the exterior and interior are both in very good condition with light traces of use. The hardware is described as shiny with light scratches.
Q: What is included with this item? A: No additional items are listed in the product information for this piece.
Q: Where was this bag made? A: The product information states that this vintage Céline bag was made in Italy.
