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 exactly is the Gucci Loafer Bag Charm? A: It is a miniature, loafer-shaped accessory in red suede with silver-tone hardware and a horsebit detail. It attaches via a clasp and is made in Italy. Approximate size is 8 × 4 × 2.5 cm (H × W × D).
Q: Is it a functional mini pouch or purely decorative? A: This piece is a decorative charm/key ring inspired by Gucci’s iconic Horsebit loafer. It is not designed to store items such as coins or earbuds.
Q: How do I attach it safely to my bag without causing damage? A: Clip the charm to hardware points like a D-ring, handle base, or zipper pull rather than directly onto delicate leather. Ensure it hangs freely and avoid high-friction areas. If your bag lacks hardware, consider using a small intermediary ring or a protective leather loop to reduce rubbing.
Q: Can a metal bag charm scratch my handbag? A: Any swinging metal hardware can leave marks on leather if it rubs repeatedly. To minimise risk, attach the charm to existing metal hardware, limit movement when travelling, and remove it when storing your bag.
Q: Can I use it as a key ring as well? A: Yes. The clasp allows you to clip it to a key ring or key holder if you prefer to use it as a key charm.
Q: How should I care for the suede? A: Keep suede dry and away from oils. After use, gently brush the nap with a suede brush or soft crepe brush. Treat with a suede/nubuck protector before first wear and periodically thereafter. For marks, start with a dry brush or suede eraser; for stubborn stains, consult a professional leather specialist.
Q: Will the red suede transfer colour? A: As with many richly dyed suedes, some dye transfer can occur, especially when damp or under friction. Avoid contact with light-coloured leather or fabrics if the charm is wet, and allow it to dry naturally away from heat. A protective spray can help reduce transfer.
Q: How do I look after the silver-tone hardware? A: Wipe hardware occasionally with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid metal polishes near the suede to prevent staining; if needed, protect the suede with tissue while gently buffing the metal only.
Q: What condition and accessories are included? A: This pre-owned piece is in very good condition with light traces of use. It comes with its box and dust bag, as listed on this page.
Q: How is authenticity assured? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously authenticated by our in-house experts using multi-point checks of materials, construction, hardware and stamps. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and are happy to provide additional details on request.
