Perfect for spring weddings, gallery openings or weekends in the city, this light blue Intrecciato Small Andiamo lends a refined pop of colour. Carry by the top handle for polished lunches, or wear over the shoulder on evening plans; its thoughtfully divided interior keeps essentials organised without compromising elegance.
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: How big is the Small Andiamo and how is the inside organised? A: Please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact dimensions. This Small Andiamo features two main compartments divided by a zipped pocket, plus a magnetic closure. The layout keeps essentials separated and easy to reach.
Q: Can I wear it crossbody as well as on the shoulder? A: Yes. The sliding strap allows you to wear it long or doubled. The approximate drop is 49 cm when worn single and 24 cm when doubled, which suits shoulder carry and a shorter crossbody; how it sits crossbody will depend on your height and preferred drop.
Q: How does the sliding strap with knot detail work? A: The strap glides through the hardware so you can switch quickly between a longer single length and a shorter doubled length without buckles or holes. The signature knot is a fixed design element. Adjust by sliding the strap, not by untying the knot.
Q: Is the closure secure for daily use? A: The bag closes with a concealed magnet. It is secure for everyday use when not overfilled; ensure the opening is aligned so the magnet can engage properly. As with any open‑top magnetic style, keep valuables inside zipped sections when travelling or in crowded areas.
Q: What typically fits inside this size? A: A large smartphone, compact wallet, keys, sunglasses case and a small cosmetic pouch fit comfortably. A slim A5 notebook or mini tablet can fit, though the central zipped divider reduces available width. A tall water bottle or full‑size tablet is usually too tight. Always compare to the Measurements provided.
Q: Is the Andiamo structured or slouchy? A: It is softly structured. The supple Intrecciato leather holds its silhouette while relaxing slightly with wear, giving a refined drape without collapsing. Light stuffing during storage helps preserve its lines.
Q: How should I care for the Intrecciato leather, especially in a light blue colour? A: Wipe with a soft, dry cloth after use. Keep away from moisture, oils and prolonged direct sunlight or heat. Store stuffed in a breathable dust bag to maintain shape. With light colours, minimise contact with dark denim and saturated fabrics to reduce colour transfer. If conditioning is needed, use a neutral leather cream very sparingly and spot‑test first, or consult a professional leather specialist.
Q: Does this model have a serial number or microchip? A: Recent Bottega Veneta pieces may include modern identifiers such as an NFC microchip linked to the brand’s Certificate of Craft programme. Presence and placement can vary by season. Pre‑loved items may not include cards; absence of a card does not affect authenticity.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed in the product information on this page. For this listing, it is delivered with no additional items unless stated otherwise there.
Q: Where is it made and what is the handle drop? A: The Andiamo is crafted in Italy. For this item, the handle drop is approximately 5 cm, and the strap drops are approximately 24/49 cm as shown in the product information.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully vetted by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, weave, stitching, hardware and interior markings. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and are happy to provide further details on request.
