Very Good Condition
This vintage Louis Vuitton Mahina Galatea MM bag in beige Mahina perforated leather with gold-tone hardware is presented in very good condition. A refined choice for daytime occasions, it works beautifully for city days, lunch meetings or weekend outings when you want an elegant yet practical everyday bag.
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 does MM mean on the Louis Vuitton Galatea MM? A: MM is Louis Vuitton's medium size category. On this model, it gives you a roomy day-bag format that feels practical for everyday use without being as large as a travel bag.
Q: What is Mahina leather? A: Mahina is Louis Vuitton's supple perforated calf leather, recognised by the Monogram pattern cut into the leather. It feels softer and more fluid than coated canvas, giving the Galatea a relaxed yet luxurious look.
Q: What typically fits inside this bag? A: With approximate measurements of 39 x 17 x 19 cm, this bag is best suited to daily essentials such as a phone, long wallet, keys, sunglasses, a small cosmetics pouch and similar items. It is roomy for everyday use, but not designed as a laptop bag.
Q: Can this bag be carried on the shoulder? A: Yes, this style has tall rolled handles and the listed drop is around 22 cm, so many people can carry it in the hand, on the arm or on the shoulder. Shoulder fit can vary depending on your frame and what you are wearing.
Q: How is the bag organised? A: This piece features a zip closure, brown lining and one internal pocket, making it easy to keep everyday essentials secure and neatly separated.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This item includes the pieces listed in the product information: clochette, keys and padlock. If something is not listed in the product information, it should not be assumed to be included.
Q: What does the condition mean for this specific bag? A: It is listed in Very Good condition with light traces of use to the exterior and interior. The hardware remains shiny with light scratches, and there is also a light vintage odour noted.
Q: How should I care for light-coloured Mahina leather? A: Mahina leather should be handled gently. Wipe the surface with a soft cloth, keep it away from excess moisture, heat, perfumes, oils and harsh cleaners, and store it in a breathable dust bag away from direct sunlight and humidity.
Q: Is the Galatea MM structured or slouchy? A: The Galatea MM is known for a soft, feminine silhouette rather than a rigid shape. It has enough structure to hold daily essentials, but the supple leather gives it an elegant, slightly relaxed drape.
