Elevate evening plans with this vintage Gucci Bamboo Tassel clutch.

The zip‑top design keeps essentials secure, while signature bamboo tassels lend a touch of movement. A chic finishing note to tailored suiting or a little black dress.
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 Gucci Bamboo Tassel Clutch? A: With approximate measurements of 21 × 34 × 1.5 cm, this slim, flat-profile clutch is ideal for essentials: a large smartphone, a compact wallet/cardholder, keys, lipstick, a slim sunglasses sleeve and a passport. Slim A5 notebooks and loose A4 sheets may slide in flat, but bulky folders and thick cases are best avoided. Very slim tablets (e.g., iPad mini without a chunky case) may fit; larger tablets are generally too bulky for the depth. If you’d like a tailored fit check for your device, just ask and we’ll test it for this exact piece.
Q: Does it come with a strap, and how can I carry it? A: This model is designed as a handheld/under‑arm clutch with a top zip; it does not include a shoulder or crossbody strap unless specifically listed under “Accessories.” For this item, the Accessories field shows a brand booklet only. If you prefer strap wear, we can advise compatible aftermarket solutions, but we recommend keeping the original look for vintage integrity.
Q: How secure is the closure and what is the interior layout? A: It features a zip‑top closure for everyday security. The interior is lined in brown fabric with organising pockets (see listing photos for the exact pocket configuration). Keep valuables in the interior pocket and avoid overstuffing to preserve the sleek silhouette.
Q: What materials and hardware does this piece have? A: Crafted in brown pebbled leather with gold‑tone hardware and signature bamboo-and-leather tassel details. The bag is labelled Made in Italy. Natural variations and light hairline hardware marks are normal for vintage pieces and are reflected in our detailed condition notes.
Q: Are the bamboo tassels removable? A: The tassels are attached to the zip pull and are not designed to be removed. If a tassel were ever lost or damaged, replacement should be handled by a reputable luxury repair specialist to maintain aesthetics and balance; we’re happy to recommend trusted partners.
Q: How should I care for the pebbled leather and bamboo details? A: Wipe leather gently with a soft, dry cloth; condition sparingly with a high‑quality neutral product after testing on a discreet area. Keep the bag away from moisture and potential colour transfer (e.g., dark denim). For bamboo, dust with a soft dry cloth, avoid knocks, solvents and excessive heat/humidity. Store the bag lightly stuffed, upright, in a breathable dust bag; place a soft cloth between tassel/hardware and leather to minimise impressions during storage.
Q: Is the Bamboo Tassel clutch still produced? A: Gucci’s bamboo motif is a longstanding house signature that appears in evolving collections; however, this specific tassel clutch configuration is generally found as a vintage/pre‑loved piece rather than a current boutique staple. The pre‑loved market is the best route for securing particular colours and sizes like this one.
Q: Where are the brand markings and codes located? A: Authentic Gucci bags typically feature an interior leather label stamped “GUCCI” and “Made in Italy,” with a multi‑digit serial/model code usually stamped on the reverse of that tag. Placement and formatting can vary by era. If you’d like close‑up photos or help identifying codes on this specific clutch, just let us know.
Q: What condition is this item in? A: This piece is in Very Good vintage condition with light traces of use; the hardware remains shiny with light scratches only. Please review our photos and condition notes for an accurate view of wear.
Q: What accessories are included and how is authenticity guaranteed? A: Included accessories for this listing: brand booklet (see “Accessories” on this page). 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, who assess materials, stitching, hardware, logo stamps, serial/model codes and overall construction. We stand behind the authenticity of every piece we sell.
