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 typically fits inside the Garden Party 36? A: With approximate measurements of 36 × 25 × 17 cm, it comfortably holds a 13-inch laptop (and many slim 14-inch models), an A4 notebook or folder, a water bottle, long wallet, makeup pouch and daily essentials. Capacity depends on how you pack and whether the side snaps are open.
Q: Will a 15-inch laptop fit? A: Some very slim 15-inch devices may fit diagonally with the side snaps open, but it can be tight and may press against the top snap. For everyday ease, we recommend laptops up to 14 inches.
Q: Can I wear it on the shoulder? A: Yes. The Garden Party 36 is designed to be carried by hand or worn over the shoulder. This piece has an approximately 16 cm handle drop, which works for most people over light layers; over thicker coats it may feel snug.
Q: What is Negonda leather and how does it age? A: Negonda is a deeply grained, matte calfskin unique to Hermès that is shrunken before tanning for extra density. It is resilient for daily use and tends to become slightly satiny and more supple over time while maintaining its character.
Q: How heavy is the Garden Party 36? A: Weight varies by material. Canvas-and-leather versions are often around 0.6 kg, while all‑leather Negonda examples are typically closer to 0.9–1.0 kg. Individual bags can differ slightly.
Q: How does the bag close and what pockets does it have? A: It features a Clou de Selle snap at the top and side snaps to cinch or expand the gussets. This specific bag has a chevron canvas interior with one zipped pocket.
Q: Does the Garden Party 36 have metal feet? A: Classic Garden Party totes generally do not have metal feet; the base is reinforced but smooth. We recommend setting it on clean surfaces or using a removable base shaper if preferred.
Q: Is the Garden Party 36 still produced by Hermès? A: Yes. The Garden Party remains part of the current collection in various leather and canvas combinations, with certain versions periodically available to purchase online.
Q: How should I care for Negonda leather? A: Wipe with a soft, dry cloth, avoid oils/solvents and prolonged sunlight, and keep the bag away from water; if it gets wet, blot gently and let it air-dry. Store it stuffed to maintain shape in a breathable dust bag and allow the leather to rest between wears. For professional cleaning or conditioning, we recommend the Hermès Spa service.
Q: How is authenticity verified without a visible serial number? A: Hermès does not use serial numbers. Instead, bags carry a discreet blind stamp indicating the production year and artisan code, which can be faint on used pieces. Every item at A Retro Tale is vetted by experts through multi-point checks of materials, stitching, stamps and hardware; we stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell.
