An elegant choice for city lunches, theatre nights, and polished workdays, this vintage black Prada Vitello Lux Embleme top-handle bag lends timeless refinement from day to evening.
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 are the measurements and how does it carry? A: This top-handle bag measures approximately 21 × 18 × 10 cm with a 9 cm handle drop. It is designed to be carried by hand or in the crook of the arm. It comfortably fits daily essentials such as a smartphone, compact wallet, keys, a slim sunglasses case and small cosmetics. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact dimensions.
Q: Does this bag come with a shoulder strap? A: No. This Vitello Lux Embleme is a classic handheld style with a single top handle and does not include a shoulder strap.
Q: What is Vitello Lux leather? A: Vitello Lux is smooth, polished calf leather known for its soft hand and elegant sheen. It offers a refined look with moderate durability and, like other smooth leathers, may show fine surface marks with use over time.
Q: How should I care for Vitello Lux leather? A: Wipe the exterior with a clean, dry, soft cloth after wear. Store the bag lightly padded in its dust bag in a cool, well‑ventilated place away from heat and moisture. Avoid overfilling to help maintain its shape. For deeper care, consult a professional leather specialist.
Q: What kind of hardware does this Embleme bag have? A: The bag features gold‑tone metal hardware and a signature logo push‑lock clasp on the flap. The finish may show light hairline scratches with normal use; this is expected for plated hardware.
Q: Is the push‑lock closure secure and easy to use? A: Yes. The Embleme line is characterised by its logo push‑lock clasp, which fastens the flap securely while allowing quick access to your essentials.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This listing includes a dust bag and a booklet. Everything included is detailed under the product information section; if an item such as an authenticity card or strap is not listed there, it is not included.
Q: Where was this bag made and is it vintage? A: Country of origin is Italy. This piece is a vintage Prada style in Vitello Lux leather, authenticated by our in‑house experts prior to listing.
Q: Does it have interior organisation? A: Yes. It is lined in black logo jacquard and includes one internal zipped pocket for secure small-item storage.
Q: The description mentions a missing bottom stud and a detached stud included. Will this affect use? A: The bag remains functional; however, the missing protective base stud means the bottom is less elevated from surfaces and may show wear more quickly. The detached front‑lock stud is included in the sale and can typically be reattached by a professional leather repair service if you wish. Items are sold as described.
