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 makes the Mulberry Bayswater so iconic? A: The Bayswater is one of Mulberry’s signature bag styles, known for its structured shape, grained leather, and recognisable Postman’s Lock. It is a timeless design that works well for everyday wear and tends to hold its appeal season after season.
Q: What typically fits inside this Small Bayswater Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 32 x 19 x 14 cm, this size is best for daily essentials such as a phone, purse, keys, sunglasses, a small cosmetics pouch, and other compact items. It offers practical space without feeling oversized.
Q: Can this bag be carried on the shoulder? A: Yes. This piece has dual shoulder straps with an approximate strap drop of 17 cm, so it can sit on the shoulder for many wearers. As with most structured Bayswater styles, the fit may feel snugger over heavier coats or jackets.
Q: Will it fit a laptop or A4 documents? A: Not comfortably for most users. This Small Bayswater is better suited to everyday essentials than larger work items, so most laptops and full-size A4 paperwork are likely to be too large for regular use in this bag.
Q: What is the interior like? A: This bag has a suede lining and one internal zip pocket, which is useful for organising smaller valuables. The structured shape also helps the bag keep a neat silhouette when carried.
Q: Is the Bayswater considered heavy? A: The Bayswater is loved for its sturdy, structured feel, but it can feel weightier than softer, unstructured bags, especially once filled. This smaller version is generally more manageable than the larger Bayswater styles, while still giving that classic substantial feel.
Q: What condition is this particular item in? A: This vintage piece is in good condition overall. The exterior shows light traces of use with some watermarks on the leather, the interior has light signs of wear, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. Please refer to the condition notes and images for the clearest view of its current state.
Q: How should I care for the leather? A: Store it in a cool, dry place, avoid prolonged exposure to rain and direct heat, and gently blot away any moisture if it gets wet before letting it dry naturally. Because this item already shows some watermarks, we would recommend a gentle approach and specialist cleaning only if needed.
Q: What product information is included with this bag? A: No additional product information is included with this piece. Everything included with the item is listed in the product information section of this page.
Q: Where was this bag made, and how is it authenticated? A: The country of origin label states Turkey. As with all items sold by A Retro Tale, authenticity is assessed through detailed checks of materials, construction, hardware, and brand markings before the piece is offered for sale.
