Frequently asked questions

Is the Bottega Veneta Sardine bag still being made?
It's unclear — it was a signature design of former creative director Matthieu Blazy, and its status hasn't been confirmed since Louise Trotter took over the brand's design direction.

Bottega Veneta (est. 1966) — The signature intrecciato weave and a string of viral 'it bag' moments have pushed Bottega Veneta's resale performance to rival established investment-grade houses.

This is an estimated market value, not a formal appraisal. The actual value of any individual bag depends on its condition, provenance, and what a specific buyer is willing to pay. Values shown are modeled from aggregated resale market data and update periodically.
