Q: What are the dimensions of this Hermès Sac à Dépêches 38? A: This bag measures approximately 39 cm wide × 31 cm high × 12 cm deep. Although the model is named 38, the supplied measurements for this particular piece are the best guide to its size.
Q: Will this bag fit my laptop and work essentials? A: Its business-bag format is suited to carrying documents and work essentials, but laptop fit has not been confirmed for this particular piece. The listed dimensions are external measurements, so usable interior space will be smaller. Check your laptop’s full dimensions, including any protective sleeve, and request confirmation of the interior space before purchasing.
Q: Can I carry this bag over the shoulder? A: This briefcase is intended for hand carrying using its top handle, with a listed handle measurement of approximately 3.5 cm. No shoulder strap is listed in the product information, so do not assume one is included.
Q: What condition is this pre-owned bag in? A: This piece is rated Very Good Condition. The exterior has minor wear on the closure strap edge and a small mark on the leather. The interior shows light traces of use, while the hardware remains shiny with light scratches.
Q: What comes with this bag? A: The product information lists a small dust bag, a clochette and a key. A box and authenticity card are not listed, so they should not be assumed to be included.
Q: What does the Square Q stamp mean, and where was the bag made? A: The product data identifies the Square Q stamp as indicating production in 2013. This bag’s country of origin is listed as France. A date stamp indicates the production year but does not, on its own, establish authenticity.
Q: What colour and leather type is this bag? A: This piece is listed as brown. The exact Hermès colour name and leather type are not specified in the product data, so a particular shade or leather finish cannot be confirmed.
Q: How should I care for the leather? A: Gently remove loose dust with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid soaking the leather, harsh chemicals, oily products and direct heat. As the exact leather type is not specified, seek advice from Hermès or a qualified leather specialist before applying cleaners or conditioners, particularly to the existing mark.
Q: How should I store this bag between uses? A: Store it in a dry place away from direct sunlight and heat, ideally in a suitably sized breathable dust bag. Lightly support its shape without overstuffing it, and avoid placing heavy items on top. The included dust bag is described as small, so check whether it covers the whole bag before using it for storage.
