Bottega Veneta Intrecciato Turn Lock Top Handle Bag
This vintage Bottega Veneta Intrecciato top handle bag in dark brown leather with gold-tone hardware is in very good condition. Featuring a braided handle, suede lining with an internal zip pocket, and a secure turn-lock flap, it's ideal for a theatre evening or elegant dinner, bringing understated Italian elegance 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 vintage Bottega Veneta Top Handle bag? A: With dimensions of approximately 27 × 17 × 6 cm, this bag is a sophisticated choice for daily essentials. It comfortably accommodates a large smartphone (such as a Pro/Max model), a standard continental wallet, keys, lipstick, and a slim sunglasses case. While the 27 cm width is generous, the slim 6 cm depth means it keeps its shape best when not overstuffed.
Q: How do I carry this bag? Is a shoulder strap included? A: This model features a single braided top handle with a drop of approximately 10 cm, designed specifically for hand or crook-of-arm carry. It generally does not fit on the shoulder and does not typically come with a crossbody strap. Please refer to the “Accessories” section of this listing; unless a strap is explicitly mentioned there, this piece is sold as a top-handle bag only.
Q: How secure is the turn-lock closure? A: The bag features a classic metal turn-lock (twist-lock) on the front flap. This mechanical closure provides excellent security for your belongings, keeping the flap firmly fastened during use, which is often more secure than magnetic alternatives found on other models.
Q: What is the interior layout? A: The interior is lined in soft brown suede, a hallmark of vintage Bottega Veneta luxury. It typically features a single main compartment with one internal zip pocket, perfect for securing smaller valuables like cards, cash, or a compact mirror.
Q: How should I care for the Intrecciato leather? A: Bottega Veneta’s signature woven nappa leather is incredibly soft but can be delicate. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, moisture, and sharp objects (like jewellery) that could snag the weave. Be mindful of colour transfer from dark fabrics. To clean, wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth. Store the bag stuffed with acid-free tissue in a dust bag to preserve the shape of the weave and handle.
Q: How do you authenticate this vintage piece? A: Authentic vintage Bottega Veneta bags are typically made in Italy. You will usually find a “Bottega Veneta Made in Italy” heat stamp inside. Depending on the production era, there may also be a small paper-like tag with a serial code sewn into the lining of the inner pocket. Our in-house experts verify these details, along with the hardware, stitching, and material quality, to ensure authenticity.
Q: What is the condition of this specific item? A: As a vintage piece, it may show signs of its history. This specific bag is described as being in “Very Good” condition with light traces of use and shiny hardware with light scratches. We recommend reviewing the detailed condition report and photos on this page to see the exact state of the leather corners, handle, and interior.
Q: Will my iPad or tablet fit? A: A standard iPad (approx. 25 cm high) is likely too large for the 17 cm height of this bag, and a snug fit width-wise. An iPad Mini might fit, but we generally recommend this bag for smaller essentials. Please compare your device’s dimensions with the Measurements provided (27 × 17 × 6 cm) to be sure.
