Yes, I tried to do various searches through the libraries, etc using key words and came up empty. Asking for help is mostly a last resort for me
thanks.
No, no pockets. I did a blind search on the web and did find it at Malleries. They called it a 'Fold Over' Flap Hobo.
So now I'm curious. Can you post the Malleries link so the BVette clan can chime in?
Sure, I really liked how it looked but wanted to see if I could find more info here at tpf.

I remember that bag! It was from the season a year or so ago where there were 3 or 4 different pinks. Let me look into it further. I do not recall anyone here doing a reveal.

I don't know how to read the lines of numbers on the label, but based on the label and other markings, this is an authentic vintage Bottega Veneta.
Hi. I have owned this bag for about 8 years. I bought it used on ebay. I do not doubt it's authenticity. I have actually had the BV store in SF send it back to BV to see if if could be cleaned, and it can not. SO I have two questions. Does anyone know anything about this bag? Style, year, etc? I should have asked when I had it sent back, but I never thought I would have to part with it. Second, has anyone ever had any success with dying a BV bag a darker color? This bag is just too dirty to use any longer.
This bag is quite large. The drop from the handles is almost 18", and it is about 16" across if you don't flatten it out. Flattened out with the bag empty it is about 21" across. The width of the bottom is almost 6".
Thanks so much in advance for any help. Take care.

So I found out the name of the bag is Campana. I think it is the large one. Here is a picture from a website. I can't get my pictures to load. So now I know the name. Here is my question. Has anyone had success dying a purse? Or should I just try to sell it on ebay to someone who will just use it the way it is? And if so what would it be worth in dirty condition?

It is not recommended to dye a woven bag with a suede lining like BV bags - you're creating a recipe for disaster. If you want to keep the bag and get it cleaned, Bottega Veneta offers a spa service for cleaning their bags - I'd check with the NYC flagship store to get a second opinion; it makes no sense to me that it can't be cleaned, but then I haven't seen the bag so don't know how bad it is. If you want to get rid of the bag, sell it on e-Bay as it is. Check past sales of Bottega Veneta Campana bags on e-Bay to get a relative value. Good luck to you.
