Q: What typically fits in the Medium Classic Box bag?
A: With approximate measurements of 24 × 20 × 8 cm, it comfortably holds a large smartphone (including Pro Max-sized), a continental wallet, sunglasses case, keys and a few small cosmetics. The structured interior helps keep items organised.

Q: Can I wear it crossbody as well as on the shoulder?
A: Yes. This piece comes with a single adjustable strap. Our product information lists the strap as 55 cm (adjustable). Many wear the Medium crossbody or on the shoulder; please compare the stated measurement with a favourite bag to confirm your preferred drop and check the photos for scale.

Q: What is the interior layout?
A: The Classic Box has an accordion-style interior with three main compartments, one zipped pocket and additional slip pockets, making it easy to separate essentials. This example is lined in red leather.

Q: What leather is it and how does it wear?
A: It is crafted from smooth box calfskin. This leather is structured with a refined sheen and can develop fine hairline scratches with normal use; over time it softens slightly and develops a subtle patina that many collectors appreciate.

Q: How should I care for box calf leather?
A: Wipe with a soft, dry cloth after wear and store stuffed in its dust bag to maintain shape. Use a neutral leather conditioner very sparingly when needed (always patch-test first) and avoid harsh cleaners, oils, excessive moisture, and prolonged friction against abrasive or dark fabrics to minimise colour transfer and scuffs.

Q: Is the closure secure and how does it open?
A: The bag features a push-clasp closure; press the front tab to release and close it gently until it clicks. The gold-tone hardware may show micro-scratches with wear, so try to avoid contact with hard surfaces when setting the bag down.

Q: Is this a Phoebe Philo–era design and what does the accented logo mean?
A: The Classic Box rose to icon status during Phoebe Philo’s tenure. Pieces stamped “Céline” with an accent generally pre-date the September 2018 rebrand, when the accent was officially dropped from the logo. This example is a vintage piece made in Italy.

Q: Does the bag have a serial or date code, and where is it located?
A: Celine uses internal date codes rather than unique serial numbers. On Classic Box bags the small alphanumeric code is typically stamped inside; exact placement can vary by season. If you would like, we can help you locate and read it on request.

Q: What is included with this item?
A: Everything included is listed under product information. For this piece: dust bag and detachable shoulder strap. If an item such as a box or booklet is not listed there, it is not included.

Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this bag?
A: All items are rigorously vetted by our in-house experts using multi-point checks of materials, construction, hardware, stamps and internal codes. We stand behind the authenticity of every piece we sell and can share further details on request.
