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 this pochette hold day to night? A: With dimensions of approximately 21 × 13 × 3 cm, it comfortably fits essentials such as a smartphone, cardholder, keys, lipstick and compact, plus a few small extras. To preserve its shape, avoid overfilling or bulky cases.
Q: Will it fit a large smartphone? A: Yes, most larger smartphones fit when placed horizontally. Very thick or rugged cases may be too bulky for the 3 cm depth; a slim case is recommended.
Q: Can the chain be worn crossbody? A: The chain has a handle drop of about 17 cm, which is intended for shoulder or hand carry. It is not designed for crossbody wear.
Q: Is the chain strap removable? A: This vintage style features a single fixed chain shoulder strap. It is not designed to detach or swap for a longer strap.
Q: Can I tuck the chain inside and use it as a clutch? A: You can tuck the chain into the bag for handheld styling. To protect the lining and hardware, place the chain neatly and avoid sharp edges pressing against the leather; you may also wrap the chain in a soft cloth when storing.
Q: How comfortable is a chain strap on the shoulder? A: Chain straps offer a refined look but can feel firm on bare shoulders if the bag is heavily loaded. Carrying only essentials and wearing over fabric (rather than directly on skin) enhances comfort.
Q: How should I care for the red textured leather? A: Wipe with a soft, slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. Keep away from oils, solvents and prolonged sunlight. To minimise colour transfer, avoid contact with dark denim or freshly dyed garments. Store stuffed to maintain shape and in a breathable dust bag when not in use.
Q: How do I look after the gold‑tone hardware and chain? A: Gently buff with a clean, dry microfibre cloth after use. Avoid abrasive cleaners and perfume contact, which can dull plating. Store the bag so the chain does not rub against the leather.
Q: What is included and how is authenticity guaranteed? A: This item is sold without accessories. Every piece at A Retro Tale is thoroughly authenticated by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, stitching, stamps and hardware; we stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell.
Q: What should I know about the condition? A: The bag is graded Very Good overall, with light corner scuffing outside, a clean interior showing light signs of use, and shiny hardware with small scratches. Please review the photos for close‑ups before purchase.
