* 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 the bag and what will it hold? A: The tote measures approximately 23 × 19 × 10 cm with a handle drop around 17 cm. It comfortably fits everyday essentials such as a phone, compact wallet, keys, sunglasses, and small cosmetics. It will not fit A4 documents or a 13-inch laptop.
Q: Does this model come with a shoulder strap? A: No. This Selleria tote is designed for hand or crook-of-elbow carry with dual flat leather handles. There is no detachable strap.
Q: Is the top of the bag secure? A: It has an open top for easy access. For added security, we recommend using a zipped pouch or a lightweight bag organiser for valuables and keeping the bag closed between uses in crowded places.
Q: What is Fendi Selleria and why are the stitches special? A: Selleria refers to Fendi’s heritage of Roman saddle‑making. Bags in this line are known for hand‑executed saddle stitching that highlights traditional craftsmanship and durability.
Q: What is nubuck leather and how does it differ from suede? A: Nubuck is top‑grain leather lightly sanded for a velvety nap; suede is taken from the underside (split) of the hide. Nubuck is typically a bit sturdier than suede but still delicate in terms of water and stain exposure.
Q: How should I care for the nubuck exterior? A: Brush gently with a nubuck/suede brush to lift the nap and remove surface dust, use a dedicated nubuck eraser for light marks, and apply a specialist nubuck protector spray periodically. Avoid oils and harsh cleaners. Store stuffed in its dust bag, away from heat and direct sunlight.
Q: Can I use this bag in the rain? A: Occasional light splashes are usually fine if the leather has been treated with a nubuck protector, but prolonged moisture can cause darkening or water marks. If wet, blot with a soft cloth and allow to air dry naturally, then brush to revive the nap.
Q: Will the colour transfer or pick up dye? A: As with most lightly‑textured leathers, nubuck can absorb dye from garments (e.g., dark denim) and may also transfer a little colour onto very light fabrics. Using a protector spray and avoiding prolonged friction against untreated denim helps minimise this.
Q: How do I look after the beaded embroidery and suede lining? A: Keep the beaded areas away from rough surfaces and jewellery to prevent snagging. For the beige suede lining, shake out debris, use a lint roller, and lightly brush with a soft suede brush; avoid liquids and cosmetics by storing them in zipped pouches.
Q: What accessories are included and how is authenticity guaranteed? A: This item comes with a dust bag as listed. Every piece at A Retro Tale undergoes multi‑point authentication by our in‑house experts, and we stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell.
