A: With approximate measurements of 30 x 15 x 6 cm, this bag is best suited to daily essentials such as a phone, card holder or small wallet, keys, sunglasses, and a few beauty items. Its slim hobo profile keeps it elegant rather than oversized, so it is not designed for bulkier items like a tablet or water bottle.

Q: Can this bag be worn on the shoulder or crossbody?

Q: Does the bag close securely?
A: Yes. It features a top zip closure, which helps keep your essentials secure whilst maintaining the clean curved shape of the bag.

Q: What materials and finish does this bag have?
A: This piece is crafted in camel-beige grained leather with silver-tone hardware. Inside, it has a tonal suede lining with one main compartment, giving it a soft and refined vintage Gucci feel.

Q: What is the condition of this bag?
A: The bag is listed in very good vintage condition. There are light traces of use to the exterior and interior, and the hardware remains shiny with light surface scratches consistent with careful wear.

Q: What is included with the bag?
A: This item comes with its original dust bag. If any additional extras such as a box, authenticity card, or other items are not listed in the product information, they are not included with this piece.

Q: Is this a practical everyday bag?
A: Yes, if you prefer carrying the essentials rather than a full day’s load. Its shoulder-friendly hobo shape, zip-top closure, and lightweight-looking streamlined profile make it a strong choice for city use, lunches, evenings out, or polished everyday wear.

Q: How should I care for this vintage Gucci leather bag?
A: For regular care, gently wipe the leather with a soft, dry cloth after use and avoid rain, direct heat, humidity, and rough surfaces. Store it in its dust bag, ideally lightly stuffed to help maintain the shape. As the lining is suede, it is best to avoid pens, liquids, or anything that may mark the interior.

Q: How is authenticity assessed for a vintage Gucci bag like this?
A: Authentic vintage Gucci bags are typically assessed through a combination of workmanship, leather quality, stitching, hardware, logo details, and interior stamp or serial tag where applicable. At A Retro Tale, all items are vetted by in-house experts before sale for added peace of mind.
