Ideal for travel and city weekends, this vintage Céline Macadam pouch keeps small essentials neatly organised. Slip it into a tote for daytime errands, carry it as a chic clutch for dinner, or use it as a refined organiser in your carry-on. The classic brown Macadam pattern with gold-tone accents adds timeless polish to any look.
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 this Céline Macadam pouch? A: With approximate dimensions of 16 × 13 × 7 cm, it comfortably holds daily essentials such as a smartphone, small cardholder, keys, lipstick or lip balm, a compact, travel‑size hand sanitiser, earbuds and a charging cable. A standard passport also fits. Capacity depends on how you pack—please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact sizing.
Q: What is the Macadam material made of? A: Macadam is Céline’s vintage monogram in durable coated canvas, typically paired with smooth leather trim. This particular pouch also has a leather interior and gold‑tone hardware, offering structure and longevity while keeping weight low.
Q: Is the pouch water‑resistant? A: Coated canvas is naturally water‑resistant and easy to wipe clean, but it is not fully waterproof. Light rain is usually fine; avoid soaking and dry the pouch promptly if it gets wet to protect the leather trim and lining.
Q: How should I clean and care for it? A: Wipe the coated canvas with a soft, slightly damp cloth and mild soapy water if needed; avoid alcohol‑based cleaners and harsh chemicals. Care for the leather trim sparingly with a quality, neutral leather conditioner and keep the pouch away from prolonged heat or direct sunlight. Store it loosely stuffed with acid‑free tissue in a breathable dust bag, ideally with a silica gel sachet to control humidity.
Q: Does vintage Céline have a serial number or date code, and where might I find it? A: Many vintage Céline pieces have an internal date code rather than a unique serial number. The code indicates production details and may repeat across items. Placement varies by style and era (often on or behind an interior leather tab or along the lining). Some small leather goods may not have a visible code—that alone is not a definitive red flag.
Q: How do you authenticate this pouch? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is inspected by specialists using multi‑point checks of materials, stitching, heat stamps, logo and font, hardware engravings, glazing, and construction. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and are happy to share additional photos or details upon request.
Q: Does this pouch come with a strap or other inclusions? A: This style is designed as a zip pouch/organiser and is typically carried by hand or inside a larger bag. All inclusions for this exact item are listed under the product information section; if something is not listed there, it is not included.
Q: Will my phone fit? A: Most standard smartphones fit comfortably inside given the 16 cm width and 13 cm height. Very large phones in bulky cases may be snug; checking your device’s dimensions against the Measurements is the best way to be sure.
Q: Can I use it as a toiletry or make‑up pouch when travelling? A: Yes, its compact size makes it ideal as an in‑bag organiser for travel‑size toiletries or cosmetics. As the interior is leather and the pouch is not waterproof, keep liquids in separate leak‑proof containers to prevent spills and stains.
