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 this Dionysus and what typically fits inside? A: This piece measures approximately 26 × 17 × 5.5 cm and has two compartments with a central zipped pocket. It comfortably fits a smartphone, slim long wallet, keys, small cosmetics, and sunglasses in a soft case. An A5 diary or iPad mini can fit, though the centre zip divider reduces clearance, so a slim case is recommended. Bulky items like a standard water bottle are not advised—please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact sizing.
Q: How can the chain strap be worn and what is the drop? A: The sliding chain strap has two positions: around 20 cm drop when doubled for a shoulder or hand carry, and about 40 cm when extended for a longer shoulder carry. The Dionysus is primarily designed for shoulder and hand wear; a crossbody carry may sit high and depends on your height and styling.
Q: How does the tiger head closure open? A: The Dionysus features a pin closure with a side release concealed beneath the tiger head. Press the side release to open the flap and push to click shut. It is secure yet quick to access once you’re familiar with the mechanism.
Q: Is the chain heavy or uncomfortable on the shoulder? A: The chain is substantial to suit the structured design. Most find it comfortable over clothing, but it can feel weighty or dig in on bare shoulders if the bag is heavily packed. Doubling the chain generally distributes weight better for longer wear.
Q: What materials is this bag made from? A: This vintage version is crafted in beige suede with leather trim and silver‑tone hardware. The interior features two compartments and a central zipped pocket for easy organisation.
Q: How should I care for the suede and leather trim? A: Keep the bag away from direct light, heat and rain. If it becomes wet, blot immediately with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use cleaning or protective products on the suede or leather as they may alter the appearance; for deeper care, consult a professional or Gucci’s care services. Store it loosely stuffed in a breathable dust bag with the chain laid flat inside.
Q: Will it fit a tablet? A: It fits an iPad mini or similar compact tablet by height and length. Use a slim case and be mindful that the central zipped divider reduces interior clearance compared with a single‑compartment bag.
Q: Is this a current or vintage style? A: The Dionysus line debuted in 2015 and remains a modern Gucci icon, produced in various sizes and materials over the years. This particular piece is a vintage, pre‑owned example in very good condition with light signs of use noted in the description.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under the product information on this page. This listing currently shows no additional items.
Q: How is authenticity assured and where is the serial number? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is authenticated by specialists using multi‑point checks of materials, stitching, hardware and stamps. Most Dionysus bags include a heat‑stamped leather tag inside with two rows of numbers. Note that Gucci serial numbers are internal production codes rather than a publicly searchable ID, so they are assessed alongside other markers during authentication.
