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 the Louis Vuitton Tivoli PM? A: With approximate dimensions of 28 × 22 × 12 cm, it comfortably carries everyday essentials: a large smartphone, continental wallet, keys, slim sunglasses in a soft case, a small cosmetics pouch and an A5 diary/notebook. A compact tablet up to around 11 inches may fit horizontally; A4 documents generally won’t lie flat due to the curved zip opening. If you’d like a tailored fit check for specific items, just ask and we’ll test this exact piece.
Q: Can I wear it on the shoulder or crossbody? A: The Tivoli PM is primarily a handheld or crook‑of‑arm bag. This piece has dual rolled handles with an approximate 12 cm drop; some wearers may carry it snugly under the arm, but it’s not designed for crossbody wear and has no dedicated strap rings. For personalised carry advice for your height and build, we’re happy to help.
Q: Is the Tivoli PM still produced? A: The Tivoli line (PM and GM) is regarded as discontinued and is no longer sold new in Louis Vuitton boutiques. It is now found on the pre‑loved market.
Q: Does the Tivoli PM have protective feet and can it stand upright? A: Most Tivoli PM examples feature four gold‑tone protective feet, helping the bag stand and reducing wear when set down. Please refer to our listing photos to confirm the details for this specific piece.
Q: How secure is the closure and what is the interior layout? A: It features a top zip closure with a chain pull for everyday security. Inside, you’ll typically find brown textile lining with slip pockets for organisation. Our listing photos show the exact configuration of this bag.
Q: What materials is this bag made from? A: The Tivoli PM is crafted from Louis Vuitton’s Monogram coated canvas with natural Vachetta leather trim and gold‑tone hardware. Coated canvas is light yet durable, while Vachetta develops a honey patina over time. This particular piece is labelled Made in France.
Q: How should I care for the Vachetta leather and coated canvas? A: Keep Vachetta away from moisture, oils and dark denim to minimise water spots and colour transfer. If lightly splashed, blot (don’t rub) and allow to air‑dry. Use a high‑quality neutral leather conditioner very sparingly and test first on a discreet area. For the coated canvas, wipe gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth and avoid harsh cleaners. Store the bag upright, lightly stuffed, in a breathable dust bag to maintain its shape.
Q: Where are the brand markings and codes located, and how is this model dated? A: Authentic Louis Vuitton bags have an interior heat‑stamp (e.g., “LOUIS VUITTON Paris” and country of origin). As the Tivoli PM predates Louis Vuitton’s microchip transition, you can expect a traditional date code, usually on a small leather tab or discreetly along an interior seam/pocket. Placement can vary by year—contact us for close‑ups of this exact bag.
Q: Can I add a third‑party strap to wear it on the shoulder? A: The Tivoli PM was not designed with strap attachments. Using aftermarket hardware or clips on the handles can stress the leather and may affect future service options. If shoulder or crossbody wear is important, consider models designed for that purpose.
Q: What accessories are included with this listing and how do you authenticate? A: This item is delivered as the bag only—no accessories are included unless specifically stated under “Accessories.” Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes rigorous, multi‑point authentication by our in‑house experts, assessing materials, stitching, hardware, stamps, date code and overall construction. We stand behind the authenticity of every piece we sell.
