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 Bottega Veneta Intrecciato Tassel Bag? A: With approximate dimensions of 17 × 12 × 3 cm, it comfortably holds a standard smartphone, a compact cardholder or small wallet, keys and a couple of small essentials. Capacity varies by how you pack—please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact dimensions.
Q: Can the strap be adjusted and how is it best worn? A: Yes. It has a single adjustable shoulder strap of about 55 cm. It is primarily designed for shoulder carry; adjust the drop for a snug under‑arm fit or a slightly longer hang to suit your preference. We recommend checking the strap length against your frame for the desired carry.
Q: How durable is Bottega Veneta’s Intrecciato weave for daily use? A: Intrecciato is a hand‑woven leather technique known for being supple yet sturdy. As with all woven leathers, avoid heavy abrasion (for example, rough denim seams), sharp edges and overloading to minimise wear on the weave and piping over time.
Q: How should I care for the Intrecciato leather and tassel? A: After use, wipe the exterior gently with a soft, dry cloth. Keep away from oils, perfumes and dyed fabrics that could transfer colour. Store the bag loosely stuffed in a breathable dust bag, and avoid hanging it by the strap for long periods. For deeper cleaning, use a specialist leather care service or test a very mild leather cleaner on a hidden area first.
Q: How do I care for the suede lining? A: Use a clean, soft suede brush to lift the nap and remove light lint. Avoid liquid cleaners inside; for small marks, a suede eraser can help. Allow the interior to air if exposed to humidity and keep cosmetics in pouches to reduce transfer.
Q: Where can I find identification details on a vintage Bottega Veneta bag? A: Most pieces feature an internal leather stamp reading Bottega Veneta Made in Italy and a small fabric or paper‑like tag sewn into the lining or pocket. The reverse commonly reads Certificato di Originalità with printed numbers; formats vary by era, and some vintage items may differ.
Q: Does Bottega Veneta offer aftercare or repairs for this bag? A: The brand’s Certificate of Craft programme provides complimentary care services on a selection of iconic bags; eligibility depends on model and purchase date. Your local boutique can advise on options for vintage items. Expert third‑party leather specialists can also clean or reinforce piping and weave if needed.
Q: The listing notes a light vintage smell—will it fade? A: It typically lessens with gentle airing. Store the bag open in a cool, dry space and place odour‑absorbing sachets (activated charcoal or baking soda in a breathable pouch) nearby—avoid direct contact with the leather or suede. Do not use perfumes or harsh deodorisers; for persistent odours, consult a professional.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under the product information section on this page. If an item such as a dust bag is not mentioned there, the piece is offered as shown.
