Delivery & Returns
Q: What size is this Céline Cabas Phantom Tote Bag? A: This is the Medium version, measuring approximately 46 x 30 x 17 cm, with a handle drop of about 23 cm. It offers a roomy everyday silhouette while still feeling more manageable than an oversized travel tote.
Q: What typically fits inside this bag? A: With its wide, open interior, it can comfortably hold daily essentials such as a long wallet, phone, sunglasses case, pouch, notebook and water bottle. It may also suit documents or slim tech items if their dimensions are within the measurements shown in the product information.
Q: Can this bag be carried on the shoulder? A: Yes, the dual handles and approximate 23 cm drop are generally suitable for shoulder carry. The fit can vary depending on your frame and what you are wearing, but it is designed as an easy day-to-day tote.
Q: Does the bag close fully? A: This style features a leather tie closure rather than a full zip-top. It helps keep the opening gathered and the shape more structured, but it is not as sealed as a zipped tote.
Q: How is the interior organised? A: The interior is lined in tonal suede and includes one internal zipped pocket for smaller valuables such as keys, cards or other essentials you want to keep separate from the main compartment.
Q: Is the suede lining delicate? A: Suede linings are luxurious but naturally more sensitive than smooth leather. To keep it looking its best, avoid pens, cosmetics, liquids and anything that may transfer colour, and consider using a small pouch to organise loose items.
Q: How should I care for the leather and store the bag? A: Wipe the leather gently with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth, avoid overfilling, and keep the bag away from prolonged heat, direct sunlight and rough or damp surfaces. When not in use, store it lightly stuffed in its dust bag to help maintain the shape.
Q: What condition is this item in? A: It is listed in Very Good Condition with light traces of use to the exterior and interior, and shiny hardware with light scratches. As this is a vintage piece, gentle signs of wear are normal and part of its character.
Q: What is included with this bag? A: Any included extras are shown in the product information. For this item, a dust bag is included.
Q: Does this bag have a serial number? A: Céline bags from this era typically feature an internal date code rather than a unique serial number. If you would like more detail on interior stamps or construction features, please contact us before purchase.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully vetted by in-house experts using detailed checks of materials, construction, hardware and brand markings, so you can shop with confidence.
