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 fits inside this Saint Laurent Envelope Clutch Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 23 x 16 x 4.5 cm, it is best suited to essentials such as a phone, cardholder, keys, lipstick, and a few small personal items. It is slim and structured rather than roomy, so bulkier items may be a tight fit. Please use the measurements on this page as your best guide.
Q: Does this bag come with a shoulder strap or wrist strap? A: No strap or handle measurements are listed for this specific piece, and no additional product information is included with the item. It is therefore best considered a handheld clutch unless otherwise shown in the photos.
Q: Is this style better for evenings or everyday use? A: This style works well for both. The sleek envelope silhouette and black leather make it easy to dress up for evening wear, while the practical size also suits day-to-evening use if you only carry the essentials.
Q: What is this bag made from? A: This piece features black textured leather, an embossed YSL logo, a flap closure, and YSL monogram fabric lining. The textured finish gives it a structured look and is often preferred for its more hardwearing feel.
Q: Is textured leather a practical choice? A: Yes. Textured Saint Laurent leather is often chosen because it tends to be more forgiving in daily use than very smooth leather and generally holds its shape well. As this is a vintage item, careful handling and not overfilling it will help preserve the edges and structure.
Q: What condition is this bag in? A: It is listed in Very Good Condition. The exterior shows wear on the edges, the interior has light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. Gentle signs of age are normal for a vintage Saint Laurent piece.
Q: How should I care for this vintage clutch? A: We recommend wiping it gently with a soft, dry cloth, avoiding heavy rain, direct heat, and overexposure to sunlight, and storing it lightly stuffed in a breathable dust bag when not in use. Extra care around the corners is advisable, as the bag already shows edge wear.
Q: Where was this bag made? A: The country of origin label for this piece states France.
Q: Does it come with any additional product information? A: No. This item is sold with no additional product information included.
