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 in the Garden Party 30?
A: With measurements around 30 × 19.5 × 13 cm, it comfortably holds daily essentials such as a phone, compact wallet, sunglasses in a case, keys, small cosmetics pouch, a small water bottle, and an A5 notebook or iPad mini. It does not accommodate A4 documents or most laptops. Capacity will vary by how you pack.
Q: Is the Garden Party 30 designed to be worn on the shoulder?
A: The 30 is primarily a handheld or crook‑of‑arm tote. With an approx. 11 cm handle drop, most people find shoulder carry snug or not practical, especially over thicker clothing. There is no built‑in shoulder strap.
Q: How does this bag close, and can it expand?
A: It secures with a central snap; the side press‑studs can be opened to expand the gussets for extra space and fastened again for a neater silhouette. As it is an open‑top design with a snap, we recommend using pouches for small or valuable items.
Q: Does the Garden Party 30 have metal feet on the base?
A: Most Garden Party totes, including many 30 cm versions, are made without protective metal feet. The base is reinforced leather; consider using a bag organiser to help the bag keep its shape and to protect the interior.
Q: Is the interior lined and are there pockets?
A: Designs vary by season and material. This particular piece is unlined with one main compartment, as noted in the product information. Some later or all‑leather versions may feature a fabric lining and an interior pocket.
Q: What materials is this bag made from and how do they wear?
A: This example is crafted in Toile H canvas with leather trim and palladium‑plated hardware. Toile H is a sturdy, textured canvas that is lighter than full leather; the leather trim adds structure and develops a gentle patina with wear.
Q: How should I care for Toile H canvas and leather trim?
A: Gently brush or wipe the canvas with a soft, slightly damp cloth; allow to air dry away from heat. For leather, wipe with a dry, lint‑free cloth and avoid oils, solvents, and prolonged sunlight or moisture. Store lightly filled in a breathable dust bag, and use pouches to prevent interior marks. For significant stains or restoration, we recommend professional care.
Q: What does the Hermès blind stamp Square K mean?
A: In Hermès’ date‑stamp system, a letter within a square generally indicates production between 1997 and 2014; the letter K in a square typically corresponds to 2007. If you would like us to reconfirm the exact stamp and year for this specific piece, our team will be happy to assist.
Q: What is included with this item?
A: Everything included is listed under product information on this page. For this piece, the product information indicates no additional items are included.
