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 Large Aphrodite Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 46 x 29 x 3 cm, it is best suited to everyday essentials plus a few larger flat items. Think phone, long wallet, sunglasses case, keys, a small cosmetics pouch and documents or a slim tablet-sized item. As the profile is quite slim, bulkier items will reduce comfort and shape.
Q: Is the Large Aphrodite a practical everyday bag? A: Yes. The large size, adjustable strap and easy magnetic closure make it a strong everyday option, especially if you want a roomy shoulder bag that still feels sleek rather than boxy.
Q: Is the leather soft or structured? A: The Aphrodite is known for a softer, more relaxed hobo silhouette rather than a rigid structure. This gives it an easy drape, while the grained leather helps it keep a refined look.
Q: How do I wear this bag? A: This item has an adjustable, detachable shoulder strap. It is designed primarily for shoulder wear, and the listed strap measurement can help you judge where it will sit on your frame.
Q: How does the bag close? A: It has a magnetic tab closure, which makes it quick to open and close while keeping the silhouette clean and minimal.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This item includes a dust bag, detachable shoulder strap and booklet, as listed in the product information.
Q: What is the condition of this particular bag? A: It is graded Very Good Condition. The exterior and interior both show light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches.
Q: How should I care for the leather? A: Wipe it gently with a soft, dry cloth after use and avoid direct sunlight, heat, humidity and rain. If it gets wet, dry it promptly with a soft cloth. Store it in its dust bag and avoid overfilling to help preserve the shape.
Q: Where was this bag made? A: The country of origin label states Italy.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is checked by in-house experts using details such as materials, construction, hardware and brand markings. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell.
