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 Bvlgari Mini Serpenti Diamond Blast Chain Bag? A: This is a compact mini bag measuring approximately 17 x 11.5 x 5.5 cm. It is best suited to small essentials such as a phone, cardholder, keys, lipstick and a few compact items. It is not designed for bulkier daily items like a large purse, sunglasses case or water bottle. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for the exact size.
Q: Can this bag be worn crossbody? A: With a strap drop of approximately 55 cm, this piece is generally best worn on the shoulder. Depending on your height and styling preference, some may find it sits close to the body crossbody, but it is primarily a mini shoulder bag rather than a long crossbody style.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This bag includes a dust bag and mirror. Everything included with the item is listed in the product information on this page.
Q: What makes the Diamond Blast design distinctive? A: The Diamond Blast variation is known for its sculptural quilted leather, designed to evoke the facets of a diamond, paired with Bvlgari’s signature Serpenti head closure. It gives the bag a more graphic, statement look than a standard smooth-leather Serpenti style.
Q: How does the bag close? A: This piece features the iconic Serpenti head front closure, which keeps the flap secure while also serving as the bag’s signature design detail.
Q: What is the condition of this bag? A: The exterior and interior are both rated Very Good, with light traces of use. The hardware remains shiny and shows only light scratches. As this is a vintage item, gentle signs of wear are normal and part of its character.
Q: Where was this bag made? A: The country of origin listed for this piece is Italy, in keeping with Bvlgari’s luxury leather goods production.
Q: How should I care for this leather bag? A: To help preserve the leather and hardware, avoid overfilling the bag, keep it away from rain, direct sunlight, perfumes and abrasive surfaces, and store it in a dust bag when not in use. A soft dry cloth is best for light surface cleaning, and the bag should be lightly stuffed to help maintain its shape.
Q: How do you verify authenticity? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully checked by specialists using details such as materials, construction, hardware, stamps and overall finish. We stand behind the authenticity of the pieces we sell, and you are welcome to contact us if you would like more product information before purchasing.
Q: Is this a good day-to-evening bag? A: Yes. The compact size, chain strap and statement Serpenti closure make it especially well suited to lunches, dinners, events and light everyday use when you only need the essentials. If you usually carry more than the basics, a larger style may be more practical.
