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 the Monogram Cerises collection and when was this bag released? A: Monogram Cerises was a limited-edition collaboration with artist Takashi Murakami for Spring/Summer 2005, featuring smiling cherry motifs printed over classic Monogram canvas. It was produced for a short period and is now considered collectible.
Q: What typically fits in the Bucket PM size? A: With approximate measurements of 26 × 23 × 16 cm, it comfortably holds a long wallet, smartphone, sunglasses case, small cosmetics pouch, keys, and a 500 ml water bottle. It can fit an A5 notebook or small tablet, but not A4 documents or a full-size laptop. Capacity depends on how you pack.
Q: Did the Cerises Bucket PM originally come with a matching pochette? A: Yes, the Bucket PM in the Cerises line was originally sold with a removable accessory pochette. For this specific item, please refer to Accessories on this page; it lists no accessories included.
Q: Are the cherries hand-painted? Will the print rub off? A: The cherries are multi-pigment screen-printed onto coated Monogram canvas. The print is durable for normal use but can be prone to abrasion and colour transfer if rubbed against rough surfaces or cleaned with alcohol-based products. Store away from heat and moisture and avoid harsh chemicals to preserve vibrancy.
Q: How should I care for the vachetta leather trim and straps? A: Vachetta is untreated cowhide that naturally develops a patina from light and handling. Keep it dry, avoid rain and oils, and wipe with a soft, dry cloth after use. Store the bag lightly stuffed in a breathable dust bag, away from direct sunlight and humidity. Do not use aggressive cleaners or conditioners.
Q: What does the date code FL0035 mean? A: For bags made before 2007, Louis Vuitton used two letters followed by four digits. The letters indicate the factory/location and the digits indicate month and year (first and third = month; second and fourth = year). FL0035 decodes to France, March 2005. Note that date codes are not unique serial numbers and do not authenticate a bag on their own.
Q: Where is the date code usually found on this model? A: On Cerises Bucket PM bags, the code is typically inside the main compartment—either on a small leather tab or stamped directly onto the lining (common on Alcantara-lined interiors). It may be near a seam or under/adjacent to an interior pocket.
Q: How secure is the open-top bucket design for daily use? A: The open-top design offers easy access but is more exposed than zipped styles. Keep valuables in the interior zipped pocket or a pouch, consider a bag organiser, and wear the bag towards the front in crowded places.
Q: Are the straps adjustable and is it comfortable on the shoulder? A: Yes. The dual flat straps have buckle adjustments; this piece has an approximate 20 cm drop when set for shoulder carry. Adjust to your preference for a comfortable under-arm fit.
