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 size is the Louis Vuitton Vernis Bellevue GM Bag? A: This Bellevue GM measures approximately 35 x 27 x 19 cm. It is a roomy everyday tote that typically fits daily essentials such as a long wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses case, cosmetics pouch and a small water bottle, while the two internal slip pockets help keep smaller items organised.
Q: Can this bag be carried on the shoulder? A: Yes. With a strap drop of approximately 20 cm and dual flat handles, the Bellevue GM is generally suited to shoulder carry for most people, while still working well as a handheld tote.
Q: What is Vernis leather? A: Vernis is Louis Vuitton’s glossy, embossed leather finish, recognised for its shiny surface and tonal Monogram pattern. It gives the bag a more polished, dressy look than standard canvas while still offering a structured everyday silhouette.
Q: Is Vernis leather prone to colour transfer or marks? A: It can be. Vernis leather is known to pick up colour transfer from dark denim, printed materials and some other leathers, and prolonged exposure to sunlight can affect the finish over time. As with any vintage Vernis piece, careful handling and storage are recommended.
Q: How should I care for this bag? A: Wipe it gently with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth, avoid overfilling, and store it in a cool, ventilated place away from heat and direct sunlight. Keep it separate from dark fabrics and printed materials to help reduce colour transfer, and avoid harsh cleaners, oils or home remedies.
Q: What signs of wear are common on pre-owned Bellevue GM bags? A: Buyers usually check for light surface marks to the Vernis, handle wear, corner rubbing and scratches to the hardware. For this specific item, the exterior and interior are noted as very good with light trace of use, and the hardware is shiny with light scratches.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This item is sold without any additional items included. Please refer to the product information on this page for the current listing details, and feel free to contact us if you would like to confirm anything before purchase.
Q: How is this bag secured and organised inside? A: The bag has a top zip closure for added security and a tonal canvas lining with two internal slip pockets, making it practical for everyday organisation.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully checked by in-house experts using detailed assessments of materials, construction, hardware, branding details and overall consistency. We stand behind the authenticity of every item we sell.
