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 typically fits in the Céline Luggage Phantom shown here? A: With approximate measurements of 30 × 28 × 22 cm and a handle drop around 12 cm, it comfortably carries an A4 folder, long wallet, small water bottle, phone, keys, a cosmetics pouch and an 11-inch tablet. Many users also carry a 13-inch laptop; this can work depending on your device’s footprint and how you pack, but do note the open-top design. Please compare your items to the Measurements on this page for the best fit.
Q: Does the Luggage Phantom have a shoulder strap or a zipped top? A: No. The Phantom is designed for hand or crook-of-arm carry via its rolled top handles. It typically features an open top with a leather tie, plus a front zipped pocket with a braided pull. This piece matches that classic configuration.
Q: How does the Phantom differ from the regular Luggage tote? A: The Phantom is the larger, more relaxed sister to the Luggage. It has wider “wings”, an open top with tie closure and a suede-lined interior, whereas the regular Luggage tote is more structured and usually has a zipped top. Both share the iconic front zipped pocket that creates the “smile”.
Q: Is the Phantom still produced by Céline? A: The original Phantom from the Phoebe Philo era was discontinued and has long been a sought-after pre-loved style. Recent fashion press has highlighted a revival of the silhouette within Céline’s current collections. This item is an earlier model and is offered on the secondary market.
Q: Is this bag heavy to carry? A: As a full-leather tote with a suede lining and protective feet, the Phantom has a substantial feel compared with canvas shoppers. Most owners find it comfortable in hand or on the arm for daily essentials; if you routinely carry a laptop and charger, expect a weightier carry than smaller or fabric-lined totes.
Q: How should I care for the grained (drummed) calfskin and suede interior? A: Wipe the exterior gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth and let it air-dry; avoid harsh cleaners and over-conditioning. Keep away from rain and colour transfer. For the suede interior, use a clean lint roller for dust and a soft suede brush for light nap refresh; avoid liquids. Store the bag upright, loosely stuffed, in its dust bag, and out of direct sunlight to help maintain its shape and wing structure.
Q: Where is the date code and what does it mean? A: Céline bags typically have an embossed date code inside—either on a small leather tab or directly in the lining. The letters indicate the workshop, and the numbers denote the week and year of production. Placement and format can vary by year and model; we’re happy to help you locate and interpret it on request.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This bag comes with a dust bag. Everything that accompanies the item is listed under the product information section on this page; if it isn’t listed there, it is not included.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every piece at A Retro Tale is verified through a rigorous, multi-point process that examines leather type, stitching, edge paint, heat stamps, hardware, zips and the Céline date code formatting and placement. We stand behind the authenticity of all items and can share additional photos or details on request.
