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 is this charm made from? A: It is crafted from Louis Vuitton’s Monogram coated canvas with a black leather tassel and gold-tone metal hardware. It features both a spring clasp and a split key ring for versatile attachment.
Q: Can I use it as a key holder as well as a bag charm? A: Yes. The split key ring is designed to hold keys securely, while the clasp lets you attach the charm to your bag, pouch, or belt loop. For everyday comfort and to avoid strain, limit the number of heavy keys on the ring.
Q: How do I attach it to my bag? A: Clip the spring clasp to a D-ring, strap hardware, or the base of a handle. To open the LV-style split ring for keys, press and twist at the small notch, then slide keys on. Attaching to metal hardware rather than bare leather helps minimise marks on delicate vachetta handles.
Q: Will this fit popular LV bags like the Neverfull or Speedy? A: Yes. The clasp is compatible with most bag D-rings and handle bases on Louis Vuitton models such as Neverfull, Speedy and Alma, and it can be used on many non-LV bags with similar hardware.
Q: What does the date code BC0280 mean? A: Louis Vuitton date codes from this era use two letters (factory code) followed by four numbers. The first and third numbers indicate the production week; the second and fourth indicate the year. BC0280 decodes to the 8th week of 2020. The letters denote a factory location within Louis Vuitton’s network; note that a date code alone does not guarantee authenticity.
Q: How should I care for the coated canvas and leather tassel? A: Wipe coated canvas gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth; dry immediately. Keep the leather tassel away from moisture and oils; if needed, lightly wipe with a dry cloth only. Avoid harsh cleaners, alcohol-based wipes, and prolonged heat or direct sunlight.
Q: How do I keep the gold-tone hardware looking its best? A: Expect normal micro-scratches with use. Buff lightly with a clean microfibre cloth and avoid contact with perfume, hand sanitisers, and abrasive surfaces. Store the charm separately to prevent friction with other metal items.
Q: Can a bag charm mark or damage leather handles? A: Any charm can leave impressions or scuffs if it rubs against soft leather, especially untreated vachetta. To minimise wear, attach the charm to metal D-rings, avoid excessive swinging, and remove it in heavy rain or during rigorous use.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This listing is for the charm only; no accessories are included unless explicitly mentioned. Please refer to the Accessories section on this page for the exact contents.
Q: What are the measurements? A: Approx. 22 × 7 × 3 cm. As a handcrafted accessory, minor variations can occur; please check the photographs for proportions and scale.
