Very Good Condition
This vintage Louis Vuitton Mini Speedy in Monogram canvas with brown leather trim and brass hardware is presented in very good condition. Featuring dual rolled handles, a detachable shoulder strap and zip closure, it is a charming choice for lunch dates, city strolls or evenings out when you only need the essentials.
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 Mini Speedy Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 16 x 10 x 6 cm, this is a very petite bag best suited to small essentials such as keys, a cardholder, lipstick, earbuds and other compact items. It is more of a charming day-to-evening piece than a practical everyday carry-all, and most larger phones or full-size wallets may feel too bulky.
Q: Can this bag be worn on the shoulder or crossbody? A: Yes. This particular item includes a detachable shoulder strap and has a listed strap drop of approximately 55 cm, so it can be styled hands-free as well as carried by the top handles. The overall fit will vary slightly depending on height and personal preference.
Q: Is this an original vintage Louis Vuitton model? A: Yes. This is the Mini Speedy, also known as the Sac HL, which is a vintage miniature interpretation of the iconic Speedy shape. It features the classic Monogram canvas body, rolled leather handles and zip-top design associated with the Speedy line.
Q: What does the code TH0916 mean? A: Louis Vuitton used date codes rather than unique serial numbers on vintage bags. TH indicates production in France, and 0916 corresponds to January 1996. As with all Louis Vuitton date codes, it helps identify production details but should not be relied on alone to confirm authenticity.
Q: What condition should I expect from this bag? A: This bag is listed in Very Good condition. The Vachetta leather shows visible patina, with darkening and scuffing on the handles and trim. The interior shows light traces of use, while the hardware has scratches and tarnish consistent with vintage wear.
Q: Is the darkening of the leather normal? A: Yes. Louis Vuitton's natural Vachetta leather develops a patina over time, so darkening, tonal variation and light wear are normal on vintage pieces. On this example, the patina is visible and forms part of the bag's pre-loved character.
Q: How should I care for the Monogram canvas and Vachetta leather? A: Wipe the coated canvas gently with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth and avoid harsh cleaning products. The untreated Vachetta leather is more delicate, so it is best kept away from rain, oils, heavy rubbing and prolonged direct sunlight. When not in use, store the bag lightly stuffed in a breathable dust bag to help maintain its shape.
Q: Does the bag have lots of interior compartments? A: No. This compact model is designed with a simple interior rather than multiple compartments, making it best for a small number of essentials. Because of its petite size, many owners prefer to use a very slim pouch or cardholder inside rather than a structured organiser.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This item includes the detachable shoulder strap noted in the product information. For the most accurate overview of what is included with your purchase, please refer to the product information shown on this listing.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is reviewed using detailed checks of materials, stitching, hardware, stamps and production codes. For vintage Louis Vuitton pieces, the date code is only one part of the assessment, and the bag is evaluated as a whole before being offered for sale.
