Q: Is Monogram canvas leather?
A: Louis Vuitton’s classic Monogram canvas is coated canvas, rather than leather. It is paired with natural cowhide leather trim, commonly known as vachetta, which develops a darker patina over time.

Q: What condition is this particular bag in?
A: The overall condition is rated Very Good. The exterior is rated Good: the vachetta leather shows patina, watermarks and minor creasing on the handles and side tabs. The interior is rated Very Good, with slightly worn lining, while the hardware remains shiny with light scratches.

Q: What accessories are included?
A: The product information lists a padlock, luggage tag and poignet, the leather handle keeper. A key, dust bag and box are not listed, so their inclusion should not be assumed.

Q: How should I care for the Monogram canvas and vachetta leather?
A: Avoid abrasive surfaces, prolonged sunlight, heat, moisture and contact with oils, cosmetics or perfume. If the surface becomes wet, gently blot it with a light-coloured, lint-free absorbent cloth. Louis Vuitton advises against using soap or solvents. Store the bag in a protective pouch when not in use; this does not mean a pouch is included with this item.
