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 what typically fits inside? A: Approx. 30 × 20 × 13 cm with a handle drop of about 7 cm and a shoulder strap drop of about 47 cm. It comfortably fits a long wallet, smartphone, keys, sunglasses case, a compact cosmetics pouch, a small water bottle, and an A5 diary or an 8-inch tablet. It does not fit a 13-inch laptop or most full-size tablets. Capacity varies by how you pack—please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact figures.
Q: How can this bag be carried? A: The Small Monogram Cabas is a 2‑way design. Carry it by the dual rolled top handles in hand or the crook of the arm, or use the detachable shoulder strap for shoulder or crossbody wear, depending on your height and preferred drop. The handle drop is short and not intended for shoulder carry.
Q: How does the bag close and keep items secure? A: It features a zipped top closure complemented by a front YSL magnetic tab. This combination helps keep belongings secure while maintaining the bag’s structured silhouette.
Q: Does this model have protective metal feet on the base? A: Many Small Monogram Cabas bags are produced with protective base studs. Please check our photos and the product information for this specific piece to confirm the presence of base studs on the item you’re viewing.
Q: Is the shoulder strap adjustable? A: This item includes a detachable shoulder strap. Strap adjustability can vary by production run; for this piece, please refer to the product information and photos. The listed strap drop is approximately 47 cm for reference.
Q: What is the interior like? A: This piece has a black leather-lined interior with one main compartment, offering structured space for daily essentials without being bulky.
Q: What items are included with this purchase? A: Everything included is listed under product information. For this piece, that includes a dust bag, a detachable shoulder strap, and a clochette.
Q: What is the material and how should I care for it? A: Crafted from smooth calf leather with gold‑tone hardware. Wipe gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture, oils, or direct sunlight. Store loosely stuffed in a breathable dust bag to maintain shape, and avoid overfilling to prevent stress on the zipper and handles.
Q: Where was this item made? A: According to the product information, this piece was made in Italy.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully authenticated by our in‑house specialists using multi‑point checks of materials, stitching, stamps, serial markings, and hardware.
