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 can I fit inside this mini pouch? A: With approximate measurements of 10 × 5.5 × 4 cm (about 3.9 × 2.2 × 1.6 in), it suits small essentials such as several cards, folded notes, coins, a key, a lipstick or a wireless earbud case. It is perfect for organising items within a larger bag.
Q: Will a smartphone fit inside? A: No. Most modern smartphones are 14–16 cm long, which exceeds the pouch’s width, so they will not fit.
Q: What is patent leather and how does it wear? A: Patent leather is genuine leather coated with a glossy finish. It is easy to wipe clean and resists light splashes, but like all patent finishes it can show scuffs and is susceptible to colour transfer if rubbed or stored against dark or untested textiles. Gentle care and proper storage keep it looking its best.
Q: How should I clean the exterior? A: Wipe with a soft, slightly damp microfibre cloth. For fingerprints or light marks, use a tiny amount of mild soap on the cloth, then wipe with clean water and dry immediately. Avoid harsh solvents (such as acetone) or coloured creams; if in doubt, use a cleaner specifically formulated for patent leather or consult a professional leather specialist.
Q: What if the patent leather becomes sticky or cloudy over time? A: Older patent leather can become tacky if exposed to heat or humidity due to changes in the coating. Do not scrub or use aggressive chemicals. Allow the pouch to rest in a cool, dry place and wipe lightly; if the issue persists, seek advice from a specialist leather care service.
Q: How can I prevent colour transfer on patent leather? A: Keep the pouch away from dark denim or freshly dyed garments, especially in warm or humid conditions. Store it in a breathable dust bag, separated from other leathers, and avoid long periods of pressure against other items.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under product information. For this piece, a box is included.
Q: Where was this pouch made? A: The product information states Italy.
Q: Does this pouch have a date or serial code? A: Many Dior small leather goods feature an internal date code or heat‑stamped label, though placement and format vary by era and some vintage pieces may not carry one. Regardless of codes, every item at A Retro Tale is carefully authenticated by our in‑house experts before listing.
Q: How should I store it between uses? A: Stuff lightly with acid‑free tissue to help retain shape, place in a breathable dust bag, and store in a cool, dry area out of direct sunlight. Avoid plastic covers and prolonged contact with other items to reduce impressions and colour transfer.
