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 are the hallmark features of the Miu Miu Matelassé Coffer Hobo Bag? A: The Coffer is known for its soft matelassé nappa leather, braided top handle, detachable shoulder strap, flap top with a metal push‑lock, gold‑tone hardware, and a fabric interior with pockets. It is a signature Y2K-era design from Miu Miu crafted in Italy.
Q: Is this a vintage piece or a recent reissue? A: This listing is for a vintage example of the Coffer. The style rose to fame in the mid‑to‑late 2000s and has since seen renewed interest as Miu Miu continues to spotlight its matelassé craftsmanship in current collections.
Q: Can it be worn crossbody? A: It includes a detachable shoulder strap designed primarily for shoulder carry. Depending on your height and fit preference, some may wear it cross‑body when the strap is on its longest setting. If you need the exact strap drop, please contact us and we will provide the measurement.
Q: What typically fits inside? A: With approximate measurements of 38 × 29 × 10 cm, it comfortably holds a large smartphone, long wallet, keys, sunglasses, and small essentials. A slim tablet up to around 11 inches can fit; a 13‑inch laptop is generally too large.
Q: How does the push‑lock and key work? A: The front flap secures with a metal push‑lock. Many Coffers include a small key housed in the clochette that operates the lock for light security. Ensure the lock clicks softly to close; avoid forcing or over‑tightening to protect the hardware and leather.
Q: How should I care for matelassé nappa leather? A: Keep away from water and oils, and avoid prolonged sunlight or colour transfer from dark textiles. Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth after use, and store the bag loosely stuffed in its dust bag to help the pleats keep their shape. For deeper cleaning, use a professional leather care service rather than household products.
Q: Will the pleats lose shape over time? A: The matelassé technique is designed to be supple yet resilient. To help maintain structure, avoid overloading the bag, rotate wear, and store it stuffed when not in use. Minor creasing and softening are normal signs of a loved vintage piece.
Q: What is included with this item? A: As listed in the product information, this piece comes with a dust bag, detachable shoulder strap, clochette, and key. If an item is not listed there, it is not included.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this bag? A: Every piece is vetted by our specialists through multi‑point checks of materials, stitching, logo stamps, hardware, interior tags/reference codes, and overall construction. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and are happy to share additional photos or details on request.
Q: Where is it made? A: The Coffer is made in Italy, reflecting Miu Miu’s craftsmanship and finishing standards.
