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 the Louis Vuitton Monogram Artsy MM Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 40 x 33 x 18 cm, the Artsy MM is a roomy everyday shoulder bag. It will generally hold daily essentials such as a long wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses, a cosmetic pouch, a water bottle and a small tablet. A compact 13-inch laptop may fit depending on its sleeve and how full the bag is, but we recommend comparing your device to the Measurements on this page for the best guide.
Q: Is the Artsy MM comfortable to carry? A: This style is designed with a single braided leather handle and is usually worn on the shoulder, in the crook of the arm or carried by hand. The handle drop on this piece is approximately 10 cm. Many owners enjoy the soft hobo shape, though like most roomy single-handle bags it can feel heavier if packed full.
Q: Does this bag close with a zip or clasp? A: No. This Artsy MM has an open top, which gives easy access to your belongings and helps create its relaxed silhouette. If you prefer extra organisation, the internal pockets are useful for smaller essentials and some buyers choose to add a separate organiser insert.
Q: What is the bag made from? A: This bag features Louis Vuitton Monogram canvas with vachetta leather trim, gold-tone hardware and a beige microfiber lining with internal pockets. The braided handle is one of the signature details of the Artsy line.
Q: Will the leather trim change colour over time? A: Yes. Natural vachetta leather is expected to develop a deeper honey-toned patina with age and use. This is normal for Louis Vuitton bags with untreated leather trim. It can also show water marks, so it is best to keep it away from rain, oils and hand cream where possible.
Q: How should I care for this bag? A: Wipe the coated canvas gently with a soft damp cloth and avoid harsh cleaners, oils or leather lotions. If the vachetta gets wet, blot it promptly with a light, lint-free cloth and let it dry naturally. Store the bag loosely stuffed in a breathable dust bag and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, heat and rough surfaces.
Q: How is the interior organised? A: The Artsy MM is known for its spacious interior and this piece has a beige microfiber lining with internal pockets to help separate smaller items such as your phone, cardholder or keys from the main compartment.
Q: What is included with this specific item? A: For this listing, a bag charm is included. Everything included with the item is shown in the product information section. If a box, dust bag or authenticity card is not listed there, it should not be assumed to be included.
Q: What is the condition of this specific bag? A: This piece is listed in very good condition with light traces of use to the exterior and interior. The hardware remains shiny with light scratches. As with all vintage and second-hand items, gentle signs of age are part of the character of the bag.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully reviewed for authenticity by experienced experts using detailed checks of materials, construction, hardware, stamps and other model-specific details. We stand behind the authenticity of the items we sell.
