Q: What typically fits inside this Gucci Bamboo Handbag? A: With approximate dimensions of 36 x 21 x 8 cm, this bag is best suited to daily essentials such as a phone, wallet, keys, sunglasses and a small cosmetics pouch. Its slim depth means it is better for organised everyday items rather than bulky belongings. Please refer to the measurements on this page for the best indication of capacity.
Q: Does this bag come with a shoulder strap? A: No. This piece features a single bamboo handle and no shoulder strap is included. With a handle drop of approximately 13 cm, it is designed primarily to be carried by hand or in the crook of the arm.
Q: What is the interior like? A: The bag is lined in black patterned fabric and includes one internal zipped pocket, which is useful for smaller valuables you want to keep separate from the main compartment.
Q: What condition is this bag in? A: This bag is in very good vintage condition overall. The exterior shows scuffing on the corners and scratches on the leather. Inside, there are light traces of use and a light vintage smell. The hardware remains shiny with light surface scratches.
Q: What makes the Gucci Bamboo line so iconic? A: Gucci Bamboo bags are especially known for their distinctive bamboo handle, a house signature first introduced in 1947. The design has remained one of Gucci’s most recognisable and collectible handbag codes, which is why vintage bamboo styles continue to be so sought after.
Q: Is the bamboo handle durable? A: Yes, bamboo handles are known for being both lightweight and strong, which is part of why the design became so enduring. As this is a vintage item, it should still be handled with care and not overloaded with heavy contents over long periods.
Q: How should I care for the leather and bamboo handle? A: Wipe the bag gently with a soft, dry cloth after use and avoid rain, direct sunlight, heat, humidity and rough surfaces. Do not use harsh cleaning or protective products. When storing it, keep the bag lightly stuffed to help maintain its shape and avoid placing pressure on the bamboo handle.
Q: Does this item come with any extras? A: No extras are included with this piece. Everything included with the item is reflected in the product information, and for this bag the listing notes that no extras are included.
Q: Where was this bag made? A: The country of origin label states Italy, which is consistent with Gucci’s long-standing Italian craftsmanship heritage.
