Ideal for dinners, gallery openings or weekend strolls, this vintage Louis Vuitton Damier Navona lends polished ease to any outfit. Crafted in Damier Ebène canvas with brown leather trim, gold-tone hardware and a single flat shoulder strap, it features a secure zip-top and red canvas lining. In very good condition with light signs of use and shiny hardware with light scratches, it’s a refined choice for smart-casual to evening looks.
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 Damier Navona? A: With approximate measurements of 21 × 13 × 4 cm, it carries daily essentials with ease: a large smartphone (including most Pro/Max models when placed horizontally), a compact wallet or cardholder, keys, lipstick and a few small toiletries. Slim sunglasses in a soft sleeve can fit; a 330 ml bottle may fit horizontally but can distort the silhouette, and a 500 ml bottle is generally too large. Please compare your items with the Measurements shown for this exact piece.
Q: Will it fit a continental wallet or a tablet? A: A standard continental wallet (around 19–20 cm) fits lengthwise but takes up most of the interior, so a compact wallet is more practical. Tablets (e.g., iPad mini and similar) typically do not fit comfortably due to the 13 cm height and structured zip opening.
Q: Can I wear it crossbody? Is the strap removable? A: This piece has a short shoulder strap with an approximate 16 cm drop, designed for shoulder or hand carry and sitting high under the arm. Some Navona examples were produced with removable straps that allow owners to attach a longer third‑party strap; hardware can vary by year. Please check our photos to confirm the strap hardware on this specific bag. A longer strap is not included unless listed under Accessories.
Q: How secure is the closure and what is the interior layout? A: The Navona features a zip‑top closure for good everyday security. The interior is typically a single open compartment lined in red fabric without additional pockets. Our photos show the exact layout of this piece.
Q: What materials is this model made from? A: Damier Ebène coated canvas with brown leather trim and gold‑tone hardware, paired with a red textile lining—precisely the configuration of this bag.
Q: Is the Navona still in production? A: The Navona is a discontinued Louis Vuitton style and is most commonly found as a vintage/pre‑loved piece.
Q: Where are the brand markings and date code located? A: Authentic vintage Louis Vuitton bags typically have an interior heat‑stamp (e.g., “LOUIS VUITTON Paris” and the country of origin) and a date code on a small leather tab or along an interior seam. Placement can vary. From around 2021, Louis Vuitton transitioned to embedded microchips rather than visible date codes on new items; this vintage model predates that change. We’re happy to assist with dating and close‑up photos on request.
Q: How should I care for the Damier Ebène canvas, leather trim and hardware? A: Wipe coated canvas with a soft, slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. Keep the leather trim away from prolonged moisture and potential colour transfer (e.g., from dark denim). Avoid harsh chemicals or alcohol‑based wipes. Store the bag upright, lightly stuffed, in a breathable dust bag, and ensure hardware doesn’t press against the canvas to minimise imprints and hairline scratches.
Q: What accessories are included and how is authenticity guaranteed? A: This listing is sold as the bag only unless stated otherwise under “Accessories” (for this piece: no accessories). Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes rigorous, multi‑point authentication by our in‑house experts, assessing materials, stitching, hardware, stamps/date code (where applicable) and overall construction. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell.
Q: Where was this specific piece made? A: This item is labelled Made in France, consistent with many Navona examples from the era.
