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 inside the Céline Small Cabas Vertical? A: With approximate measurements of 28 × 22 × 10 cm, it comfortably holds a long wallet, smartphone, keys, sunglasses case, a small make-up pouch, a slim 500 ml water bottle and a tablet up to about 11 inches. Capacity varies with how you pack—please compare against the listed Measurements on this page.
Q: Will it fit a laptop or tablet? A: Most 13-inch laptops will not fit comfortably. Slim tablets up to approximately 11 inches fit well; for larger devices, compare your device’s dimensions to the internal height of about 28 cm to be sure.
Q: How does the bag close, and is it secure for city use? A: This piece has an open top with no zip or clasp. For added peace of mind, keep valuables in the internal pocket and/or use a slim zip pouch or organiser inside the bag, especially on public transport.
Q: How can I carry it? A: It has dual top handles for hand carry (drop approx. 11.5 cm) and a detachable shoulder strap (drop approx. 42 cm). The strap is ideal for shoulder carry; crossbody wear may feel short depending on your height and preference.
Q: What is the interior like? A: The interior is lined in black suede with one internal slip pocket for small essentials such as a phone or cardholder.
Q: What materials and hardware does this item have? A: It is crafted in black grained calfskin with silver-toned hardware. Grained calfskin offers a subtle texture and good day-to-day durability while maintaining a refined look.
Q: What is included with this item? A: As listed in the product information, this item comes with a dust bag and brand booklets.
Q: How should I care for the grained calfskin and suede lining? A: Wipe the exterior gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth, then air-dry. Avoid harsh chemicals, oils, or prolonged exposure to heat/sunlight, and protect from heavy rain as leather is not waterproof. For the suede lining, remove dust with a clean suede brush or lint roller and avoid liquids inside. Store the bag stuffed to hold its shape and keep it in its dust bag in a cool, dry place.
Q: Where was this piece made? A: The country of origin label states Italy.
Q: What is the condition of this item? A: Very Good overall with light traces of use to the exterior and interior. The hardware remains shiny with light scratches. Please see the full product information for complete condition notes.
