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 fits inside this coin purse? A: With approximate measurements of 17 cm × 8 cm, it comfortably carries coins, folded notes, a house key and other small items like earbuds or a slim lipstick. It is best used as a compact holder rather than a full wallet—please compare the dimensions with your essentials.
Q: Will bank cards fit? A: Standard cards measure about 8.56 × 5.4 cm. Given the 8 cm width and curved silhouette, a card may fit diagonally but is not guaranteed to sit flat. If you plan to carry cards, consider one or two at most, placed diagonally.
Q: What are the materials and closure? A: It has a red grained leather exterior, a tonal suede lining, gold-tone hardware and a secure metal clasp closure.
Q: Is this really a Bottega Veneta fish design? A: Yes. Bottega Veneta has produced whimsical animal-shaped small leather goods, including fish-shaped coin purses from earlier collections, and this piece is crafted in Italy.
Q: What is the item’s condition? A: Very Good overall with light traces of use on the exterior and interior. The hardware remains shiny with light scratches. Please review the photos for close-ups.
Q: What is included? A: The listing is for the coin purse only. No additional items are included unless specifically stated under product information.
Q: Does it have a strap or attachment ring? A: No. This model is designed as a standalone coin purse without a strap or attachment ring.
Q: How should I care for it? A: For the leather, wipe with a soft, slightly damp cloth and dry immediately; avoid harsh cleaners and prolonged sunlight. For the suede lining, gently brush with a clean suede brush and keep away from liquids. Store it lightly stuffed in a breathable pouch to help maintain the shape.
Q: Can the red colour transfer? A: As with most dyed leathers, colour transfer can occur with friction or moisture, particularly against light fabrics. Keep it away from damp conditions and store separately from pale items.
Q: Where is it made? A: The piece is labelled Italy.
