Saint Laurent Jerry Cube Box Tassel Bag

Q: What typically fits inside the Saint Laurent Jerry Cube Box Tassel Bag?
A: With an approximate interior shaped by its 15 × 14 × 3 cm structure, it fits small essentials such as a slim cardholder, keys, lipstick, and most standard-sized smartphones up to around 14.7 cm in height. Bulky items like large sunglasses cases are unlikely to fit comfortably. Please compare with the Measurements on this page for certainty.

Q: Can it be worn crossbody?
A: The strap is approximately 60 cm. On many frames it wears as a short crossbody or a comfortable shoulder bag; on taller frames it may sit higher. The strap is fixed and not adjustable, so we recommend checking your preferred drop against the stated measurement.

Q: Is the strap removable or adjustable?
A: The rope shoulder strap is fixed and non-adjustable. Some clients temporarily shorten the drop by tying a small knot inside, but this can mark the cord; we do not recommend modifying the piece.

Q: How does the bag close and is it secure?
A: This model has a structured box silhouette with a top flap closure. Pack with slim items to maintain the clean line of the flap and avoid overfilling, which helps the closure sit securely.

Q: Is patent leather practical for daily use?
A: Patent leather is durable and naturally water-resistant, but the glossy finish can pick up colour transfer from dark fabrics and may become tacky in heat or high humidity. Avoid prolonged rubbing against denim or dark textiles, keep away from heat sources/direct sunlight, and store with care to preserve the shine.

Q: How should I care for the patent finish, tassels and rope strap?
A: After use, wipe gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth. Avoid alcohol, acetone, oils, or household cleaners. Keep tassels straight and untangled; do not hang the bag by the strap for long periods. Store lightly stuffed in a breathable dust bag, away from other leathers to prevent colour transfer.

Q: Will my phone fit?
A: Most standard smartphones (non-Plus/Max) fit due to the 15 cm width and 14 cm height, but very large models may be tight. If your phone’s longest side is over roughly 14.7 cm, please compare carefully to the Measurements.

Q: What is included with this item?
A: Everything included is listed in the product information section for this listing. If an item such as a dust bag or card is not listed there, it is not included.

Q: Where is the serial number located, and what if I cannot find one?
A: On many Saint Laurent bags the serial is stamped on the reverse of the interior logo tag or inside a pocket. Older/vintage pieces often use a 12‑digit code with a dot separator. Some compact vintage styles may not have an obvious code; absence of a visible code does not affect our authentication process.

Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this bag?
A: Our in-house experts use multi-point checks covering materials, stitching, hardware, stamps, construction and ageing patterns. We stand behind the authenticity of every item we sell and are happy to provide additional photos or details on request.

Q: Where was this piece made?
A: The interior label indicates France as the country of origin for this bag.
