It can be carried by hand or worn on the shoulder. Crossbody wear may also be possible depending on your height and preferred fit, but it will sit higher on some wearers.
Q: What are the benefits of Epi leather? A: Epi leather is one of Louis Vuitton’s most practical leathers. It is textured, structured and dyed through, which helps it hold its shape well and makes it generally more resistant to everyday scratches and light moisture than many smooth leathers.
Q: What product information is included with this bag? A: This bag comes with a detachable shoulder strap, padlock and keys. Any additional items not listed in the product information should be considered not included.
Q: Does the bag have any interior organisation? A: Yes. The bag is lined in tonal suede and features one internal pocket, which is useful for slimmer essentials you want to keep separate from the main compartment. It also has a two-way zip closure for secure access.
Q: What does the code AR1906 mean? A: AR1906 is Louis Vuitton’s production date code rather than a unique serial number. AR indicates production in France, and the four-digit format used in this era points to October 1996 manufacture.
Q: What condition is this vintage bag in? A: The overall condition is rated Very Good. The exterior shows a minor scuff on the leather trim along with some marks and scratches, the interior has light traces of use, and the hardware shows scratches and tarnishing consistent with age and gentle wear.
Q: How should I care for vintage Epi leather? A: Wipe it gently with a soft, light-coloured cloth and avoid harsh cleaners, soap or solvents. Try not to overfill the bag, and keep it away from direct sunlight, strong heat, humidity, perfume, hand cream and other products that may affect the leather. When not in use, store it in a breathable protective pouch to help maintain its shape.
Q: How do I know this bag is authentic? A: Pre-owned luxury pieces sold by A Retro Tale are professionally vetted before listing. Authentication typically considers materials, construction, hardware, stamps and date-code details to ensure the piece is genuine.
