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 size is the Bottega Veneta Cabat MM, and what fits inside? A: This bag measures approximately 42 x 26 x 17 cm, giving it a roomy everyday tote silhouette. It should comfortably hold daily essentials such as a wallet, phone, sunglasses case, keys, cosmetics pouch, and a water bottle. Slimmer tablets and some smaller laptops may also fit, but we recommend comparing your item to the listed measurements for the best guide.
Q: Can this bag be carried on the shoulder? A: Yes, the dual rolled leather handles and approximately 19 cm drop generally allow for shoulder carry. Fit can vary depending on your frame and what you are wearing, especially with heavier outerwear.
Q: Does the bag have a zip or other top closure? A: No, this Cabat has an open-top design. That is part of the model’s relaxed, elegant look, but it also means items are most secure when placed neatly inside, with smaller valuables kept in the detachable zipped pouch.
Q: Is the interior lined? A: No, the interior is unlined. This is typical of the Cabat and lets the craftsmanship and supple woven leather remain the focus, while also keeping the bag relatively lightweight for its size.
Q: Is the internal pouch removable? A: Yes, this bag includes a detachable internal zipped pouch. It is useful for organising smaller essentials such as cards, keys, or other items you want easier access to.
Q: What does Limited Edition: 014/500 mean? A: It indicates this piece is numbered 014 out of a run of 500. Numbered limited-edition Cabat bags are especially appealing to collectors because they combine the house’s iconic Intrecciato workmanship with added rarity.
Q: What condition is this specific bag in? A: The exterior and interior are both listed as Very Good, with light traces of use. The hardware is described as shiny with light scratches. As a vintage piece, gentle signs of wear are normal and part of its character.
Q: What is included with this bag? A: This piece includes a dust bag and pouch. For clarity, everything included with the item should be taken from the product information on this page.
Q: How should I care for vintage Intrecciato leather? A: Store the bag with care in its dust bag, ideally lightly filled to help maintain its shape. Avoid overfilling, rough surfaces, liquids, oils, perfume, make-up, direct sunlight, and heat. For day-to-day upkeep, a soft dry cloth is best, and any deeper cleaning should be handled by a trusted leather specialist.
Q: Why is the Cabat considered such an iconic Bottega Veneta bag? A: The Cabat is admired for its understated, logo-free design and signature Intrecciato woven leather construction. It is one of Bottega Veneta’s most recognisable tote styles and is especially valued by those who appreciate discreet luxury and artisanal craftsmanship.
