Compact yet organised with three zipped pouches and an adjustable shoulder strap, it moves effortlessly from brunch to gallery visits to dinner, keeping essentials neat while complementing minimalist, modern looks.
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 are the measurements and how can I carry it? A: This Small Trio measures approximately 22 × 15 × 4 cm. The strap on this item has an approximate 53 cm drop and is adjustable, so you can wear it on the shoulder or crossbody. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact figures for this piece.
Q: What typically fits inside the Small Trio? A: Daily essentials fit comfortably across the three zipped pouches: a large smartphone (including most Pro/Max models), a compact wallet or cardholder, keys, lipstick, AirPods, a passport and slim sunglasses in a soft case. Capacity varies with how you pack; avoid bulky hard cases to keep the silhouette sleek.
Q: Will it fit an iPad mini or a long continental wallet? A: An iPad mini does not fit in the Small Trio due to the bag’s 15 cm height. A full-length continental wallet can be snug; compact wallets are recommended. Bulky items may imprint on the smooth leather and show through the front pouch.
Q: Are the three pouches detachable and how do they work? A: Yes. The Trio is three separate zipped pouches connected with secure press-studs at the top corners. The middle pouch is attached to the strap; the front and back pouches can be detached so you can carry one, two or all three together, or use a single pouch as a clutch.
Q: Does the Trio have internal pockets? A: No. Each pouch is a single open compartment with a fabric lining and top zip. There are no additional interior pockets.
Q: Is the Céline/Celine Trio still in production? A: The original Trio has been discontinued by the brand and is now found on the pre-loved market. Celine currently offers the related Trio Flap style in boutiques.
Q: What leather is it made from and how does it wear? A: Trios are most commonly crafted in smooth lambskin, with some seasons in calfskin. Lambskin feels luxuriously soft but can show fine scratches and corner rubbing with wear, while calfskin is typically a touch more hard-wearing. This item is graded Very Good with light surface wear, corner rubbing and some dullness on the hardware as noted in the product description.
Q: How should I care for this bag? A: Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth after use. Keep away from water, oils, direct sunlight and heat. Store it lightly stuffed in its dust bag to maintain shape, and avoid overfilling so the pouches and press-studs are not strained. If moisturising, use a small amount of a neutral leather conditioner and test first on an inconspicuous area.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under product information on this page. For this piece, a dust bag is included. If you need clarification, our team is happy to help.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully vetted by our in-house experts using multi-point checks of materials, stitching, hardware, stamps and production markings. We stand behind the authenticity of every piece we sell and can provide further details on request.
