Very Good Condition
Perfect for cocktail hour or a chic dinner, this vintage Gucci Dionysus Wallet on Chain in black velvet with leather trim and silver-toned hardware adds polished drama. The chain strap keeps you hands-free, while a nude leather interior with one main compartment holds essentials. Finished with the signature tiger-head snap closure. 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 are the dimensions and how can this bag be worn? A: This Dionysus Wallet on Chain measures approximately 16.5 × 10 × 4 cm with a chain drop of about 60 cm. It can be worn crossbody or on the shoulder, and the chain can be tucked inside to use the piece as a clutch.
Q: What typically fits inside this size of Dionysus Wallet on Chain? A: Essentials such as a slim smartphone (up to roughly 15–16 cm in length), a cardholder, keys, a lipstick and folded notes will fit. Bulky wallets or thick phone cases may limit space. Packing flat items and placing the phone horizontally helps maximise capacity.
Q: Will a large iPhone fit? A: Many users report fitting standard and some larger iPhone models by placing the phone horizontally or at a slight angle. Fit can vary by case and exact device dimensions, so checking your phone’s measurements against the bag’s 16.5 cm width is recommended.
Q: Is the chain strap adjustable or removable? A: The chain on this piece is not adjustable by design and is not intended to be removed. You can shorten the carry length by looping the chain inside the bag; avoid clips or knots that could mark the velvet or hardware.
Q: How does the closure work and what is inside? A: It features a snap button closure with the signature Dionysus tiger head detail. This specific piece has a nude leather-lined interior with one main compartment, ideal for a cardholder and small essentials.
Q: What material is this and how do I care for it? A: The exterior is black velvet with leather trim and silver-toned hardware. Keep velvet away from liquids, oils and prolonged friction, and store it loosely stuffed in a breathable dust bag to maintain shape. Use a clean, soft brush to gently lift the nap if it flattens and avoid colour transfer by pairing with similar or dark fabrics.
Q: Is this size considered the Super Mini/WOC in the Dionysus family? A: Yes. At approximately 16.5 × 10 × 4 cm, this corresponds to the compact Super Mini/Wallet on Chain size within the Dionysus line, designed for just-the-essentials carry.
Q: Where is it made? A: Gucci Dionysus pieces are crafted in Italy. This item’s country of origin label is Italy.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed in the product information. If an item such as a dust bag is not listed there, it is not included. Please review the product information on this page for full details.
Q: How do you authenticate and describe condition? A: Every piece at A Retro Tale is carefully authenticated by our in‑house experts through multi‑point checks of materials, stitching, hardware and stamps. This item is in very good pre‑owned condition with light traces of use and shiny hardware showing light scratches, as noted in the product information.
