This vintage Gucci Ribot Tote Bag in brown leather with brass hardware offers a refined look for workdays, shopping trips or everyday city wear. It features dual shoulder straps and a beige canvas-lined interior with internal pockets. In very good condition overall, it shows scuffing to the corners, watermarks and scratches.
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 Gucci Ribot Tote Bag? A: With measurements of approximately 43 x 28 x 18 cm, this medium tote is roomy enough for everyday essentials such as a purse, phone, water bottle, cosmetics pouch, sunglasses, keys and a light knit. It can also accommodate documents or a tablet, and many buyers use similar Gucci totes as day or work bags. Please compare the measurements with what you plan to carry.
Q: Can it be worn comfortably on the shoulder? A: Yes. This bag has dual flat shoulder straps with an approximate 20 cm handle drop, so it is designed to sit on the shoulder for day-to-day use.
Q: Will it fit a laptop? A: Possibly a slim 13-inch laptop or a smaller device, depending on the sleeve and exact proportions, but there is no dedicated padded laptop compartment. If carrying a laptop is important to you, we recommend comparing your device to the listed bag measurements before purchase.
Q: How is the inside organised? A: The bag is lined in beige canvas and includes internal pockets, which help keep smaller essentials separate from the main compartment.
Q: Is this considered a vintage Gucci bag? A: Yes. This is a vintage, pre-loved Gucci Ribot tote made in Italy. Vintage Gucci pieces are appreciated for their character and craftsmanship, but they may also show age-related signs such as corner wear, scratches or slight variations in finish.
Q: What is the condition of this specific bag? A: The exterior is in good vintage condition with scuffing on the corners, watermarks and scratches. The interior is very good with light traces of use, and the brass hardware remains shiny with light surface scratches. As a pre-loved leather piece, these signs of wear are normal and part of its character.
Q: Does this item come with anything extra? A: This item is sold on its own, with no additional accompanying items included.
Q: How should I care for vintage Gucci leather? A: Gently wipe the leather with a soft, dry cloth after use and keep it away from direct heat, strong sunlight, humidity and rain. Avoid harsh cleaners or protector sprays, as these can mark or alter the finish. For storage, keep the bag lightly stuffed in a breathable dust bag or cotton pillowcase so it can hold its shape.
Q: Can scuffs, corner wear or watermarks be improved? A: Often, yes. Light scratches and surface wear can sometimes be reduced by a reputable handbag spa or leather specialist, while heavier corner wear or marks may only improve rather than disappear completely. For a vintage Gucci bag, professional treatment is usually safer than home repairs.
Q: How do you authenticate a vintage Gucci bag if no serial number is listed? A: Serial numbers can be useful, but they are not the only test of authenticity, and some older Gucci bags may have missing, worn or absent codes. Authentication is best done by assessing the model, leather, hardware, stitching, interior details and overall construction together rather than relying on one number alone.
