Delivery & Returns
Q: What typically fits inside the Louis Vuitton Damier Recoleta Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 26 × 12 × 7 cm, it is best suited to daily essentials such as a phone, a small or compact wallet, keys, lipstick, and slim sunglasses. Its slim, structured shape is elegant rather than roomy, so bulkier items are not ideal.
Q: Can this bag be worn crossbody? A: No. This model is designed as a short shoulder bag with a single flat strap and an approximate strap drop of 20 cm, so it sits neatly under the arm rather than across the body.
Q: Does the bag close securely? A: Yes. It features a magnetic flap closure that keeps essentials covered while still being easy to open and close.
Q: Does it have any inside pockets? A: Yes. The bag is lined in red leather and includes one internal pocket for organising smaller items.
Q: Is the Recoleta more of a day bag or an evening bag? A: It works well for both. The compact silhouette, Damier Ebene canvas, and polished brass hardware make it easy to style for daytime errands, lunches, dinners, or events when you only need the essentials.
Q: What does the date code FL0034 mean? A: Louis Vuitton date codes from this period indicate the place and date of manufacture rather than acting as a unique serial number. FL0034 corresponds to France and March 2004.
Q: What condition is this particular bag in? A: This piece is listed in very good condition with light traces of use externally and internally. The hardware remains shiny with light scratches consistent with gentle wear.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This item includes a dust bag. Any included items are described in the product information for this listing.
Q: How should I care for Damier Ebene canvas? A: Gently wipe the coated canvas with a soft damp cloth and avoid harsh chemicals, oils, alcohol-based cleaners, or over-packing. When not in use, store the bag in its dust bag in a dry, ventilated place to help preserve its shape.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully reviewed for authenticity by in-house experts. Checks typically include materials, construction, hardware, stamps, and date code details before a piece is offered for sale.
