OUT OF STOCK
Perfect for cocktail hours and elegant dinners, this Louis Vuitton Pochette Félicie in burgundy Monogram Vernis adds a glossy note to evening ensembles. Its compact silhouette keeps essentials close without fuss, making it a chic choice for weddings, gallery openings, or any polished day-to-night occasion.
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 Pochette Félicie? A: As a compact wallet-on-chain (approx. 21 × 12 × 3 cm), it comfortably carries a slim smartphone, the included card holder or zip pouch, a few keys, notes/coins, and a lipstick. Capacity reduces when both inserts are used; removing one insert frees up space. Packing flat, slim items gives the best result.
Q: Will it fit a large smartphone? A: The Félicie is designed to fit phones up to around 6.7 inches. Larger phones or thick cases may be tight; using a slimmer case (or no case) helps the press-stud close neatly.
Q: Can it be worn crossbody and on the shoulder? A: Yes. The gold-tone chain is removable and gives an approximate 53–55 cm drop, suitable for most crossbody and shoulder carries. Many owners shorten the drop by doubling the chain inside the flap for a shoulder or handheld look.
Q: Are the inserts included and are they removable? A: Yes. As listed in the product information, this piece includes two removable inserts: a zipped pouch and a card holder. You can use them inside the bag, swap them between bags, or carry the Félicie as a simple clutch without inserts.
Q: Is the chain strap adjustable or replaceable? A: The chain isn’t adjustable, but it is detachable. You can shorten it by looping it under the flap, or replace it with a compatible strap of your choice. Always check hardware compatibility to avoid wear on the D-rings or finish.
Q: What should I know about Monogram Vernis patent leather? A: Vernis is glossy patent calf leather. It’s eye-catching but more sensitive than canvas to surface scratches, heat, and colour transfer. Keep it away from printed materials and dark denim, avoid prolonged sunlight and humidity, and store it in its dust bag, lightly stuffed to maintain shape.
Q: How do I clean and care for Vernis leather? A: Wipe gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth to remove fingerprints and dust. If needed, use a barely damp cloth and dry immediately. Avoid solvents, alcohol-based products (including hand sanitiser), oils, and abrasive cleaners, which can cloud or damage the finish.
Q: Will a passport fit? A: Yes, a standard passport fits, along with cards and small essentials. For smooth closure, avoid overfilling and place flat items against the back wall of the bag.
Q: What does the date code TJ0166 mean? A: Louis Vuitton used date codes until 2021. The code TJ0166 indicates manufacture in France (TJ), in the 6th week of 2016.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this item? A: Every piece is vetted by our in-house experts using multi-point checks of materials, stitching, hardware, heat stamps, and date codes. We stand behind the authenticity of all items and are happy to provide further details on request.
