Ideal for daytime events or adding a vibrant finish to everyday ensembles, it brings distinctive Spanish-made charm to any look.
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 this Loewe Patent Leather Top Handle Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 46 x 15 x 22 cm, this Medium Aire style is roomy enough for daily essentials such as a long wallet, phone, sunglasses case, keys, a cosmetics pouch and other medium-sized items. Its long, low silhouette is best suited to everyday essentials rather than very bulky belongings.
Q: How is this bag designed to be carried? A: This bag has dual top handles with an approximate handle drop of 9 cm, so it is best carried by hand or in the crook of the arm. It is not intended as a crossbody style, and no shoulder strap is included with this item.
Q: Is this a vintage Loewe bag? A: Yes. This is a vintage Loewe Aire Medium made in Spain. The Aire line is known for its soft, sculptural shape and elegant top-handle design, which makes it a distinctive older Loewe style.
Q: What is included with the purchase? A: No additional items are included with this bag. If something such as a dust bag, box, strap or card is not listed on this page, it is not included with the purchase.
Q: What condition is the bag in? A: The bag is in good vintage condition overall. The exterior shows visible discolouration marks, the interior has light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. As with many vintage patent leather bags, age-related surface wear is to be expected.
Q: Does the bag have any interior organisation? A: Yes. According to the product details, it has Loewe logo lining with one internal pocket, which is useful for keeping smaller essentials separate and easy to reach.
Q: How should patent leather be cared for? A: Patent leather should be kept away from prolonged heat, direct sunlight, water, oils, perfumes and cosmetics. For day-to-day care, wipe it gently with a soft cloth and store it in a cool, dry place, lightly filled to help maintain its shape. Avoid harsh cleaning products, as they can damage the finish.
Q: Can patent leather become sticky or show colour transfer over time? A: It can. Patent leather may become tacky or develop surface changes if stored in heat or humidity for long periods, and highly coloured leather can sometimes transfer colour when rubbed, especially in damp conditions. Careful storage in a breathable dust bag and away from direct light can help reduce this risk.
Q: How do you authenticate a vintage Loewe bag like this? A: At A Retro Tale, vintage Loewe bags are assessed through a combination of craftsmanship, leather quality, lining, hardware, logo details and country-of-origin markings. Older Loewe bags may not always have a listed serial number, so authenticity is judged through the whole construction rather than one code alone.
