Q: What typically fits inside the Bottega Veneta Intrecciato Olimpia Bag?
A: With approximate measurements of 22 × 15 × 8 cm, it’s designed for daily essentials: a large smartphone (including most Pro/Max models), a compact wallet or cardholder, keys, lipstick, and slim sunglasses in a soft case. The dual‑compartment interior slightly reduces usable space; full‑length continental wallets and small tablets (e.g., iPad mini) generally do not fit comfortably. If you’d like a tailored fit check for this exact piece, just ask and we’ll test it for you.

Q: Is the chain strap adjustable, and can I wear it crossbody?
A: The chain‑and‑leather strap can be worn doubled for a shorter shoulder drop or extended for shoulder/high crossbody wear. For this piece, the strap measurement is listed as 60/120 cm under “Measurements.” If you’d like the exact drop in centimetres or how it sits on your frame, we’re happy to confirm.

Q: How secure is the closure and what does the interior look like?
A: The bag features a flap top with a magnetic closure for quick yet secure access. Inside, you’ll find a brown suede lining with two compartments that help organise small necessities. Layout details can vary slightly by production; our photos show the exact configuration of this item.

Q: What is Bottega Veneta’s Intrecciato, and does the weave improve durability?
A: Intrecciato is the house’s signature hand‑woven leather technique. The interlaced construction helps distribute stress across the weave, maintaining suppleness while supporting long‑term durability when properly cared for. As with all fine leather, avoid overloading and rough surfaces to preserve the finish.

Q: Is the Olimpia heavy to wear?
A: The chain adds a reassuring feel without being overly heavy for everyday use. The leather shoulder pad improves comfort, especially when worn for longer periods. Keeping contents streamlined will maximise comfort and help maintain the bag’s shape.

Q: Is the Olimpia still produced, or mainly found pre‑loved?
A: The Olimpia is a longstanding Bottega Veneta icon. Availability and colours vary by season and region, so many configurations are most readily found on the pre‑loved market. If you’re seeking a specific size or shade, we’re happy to advise.

Q: Where are the brand markings and codes located, and do Bottega Veneta bags have authenticity cards?
A: Authentic BV bags typically feature an interior “BOTTEGA VENETA – MADE IN ITALY” heat‑stamp and, depending on era, a small serial/production code on an interior tag. Earlier pieces may include a “Certificato di Originalità” card. Code formats and the presence of cards can vary by year and model—contact us if you’d like close‑ups for this exact bag.

Q: How should I care for the woven leather and suede lining?
A: Keep the bag dry and away from heavy rain; blot light moisture gently (don’t rub) and allow to air‑dry away from heat. Avoid colour transfer from dark denim onto the lilac leather. Dust leather with a soft, dry cloth and condition very sparingly after testing on a discreet area. For suede, use a clean, soft brush to lift surface dust. Store upright, lightly stuffed, in a breathable dust bag, and pad the chain/shoulder piece to prevent impressions.

Q: Will large phones or a small water bottle fit?
A: Most large phones fit comfortably; we recommend placing the phone in one compartment and the wallet in the other to maintain shape. A 500 ml bottle generally does not stand upright and may distort the silhouette if forced horizontally. We can test any specific item for you on request.

Q: What accessories are included with this item and how do you authenticate it?
A: For this listing, we include a dust bag and mirror (see “Accessories”). If an accessory isn’t mentioned there, it isn’t included. Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes rigorous, multi‑point authentication by our in‑house experts, assessing materials, stitching, hardware, stamps, codes and overall construction—we stand behind the authenticity of every piece we sell.
