☆ You Wanted It Then. You Can Have It Now. (Welcome to Prisme Vintage) ☆

If you ever saved a photo of a bag on a low-resolution Tumblr page, stared at it in a magazine, or saw it on someone’s arm and thought “one day”… you’re in the right place.

Prisme Vintage is a curated vintage handbag shop built around a simple idea: iconic pieces deserve a second life. So I decided to build a time capsule — or at least the closest thing to it. I’m drawn to bags from the late 90s and 2000s: the era of glossy campaigns, flip phones, and that specific kind of “after school on the family computer” feeling.

This is my first drop, and I’m so happy you’re here ♡

♡ The silhouette is instantly recognizable

♡ The material or print is specific to an era

♡ It has “main character” energy without trying too hard

♡ It’s wearable now, not just collectible

I’m keeping the shop small and intentional. Each piece is curated carefully, photographed honestly, and described as clearly as possible. For extra reassurance, select pieces may also be eligible for an Entrupy Certificate of Authenticity (when available), so you can shop with confidence.

If you’ve ever shopped vintage online, you know the stress: Is it really that clean? Are the corners worn? What does “minor flaws” even mean?

Here’s how I handle it:

✧ Every listing includes detailed photos (corners, hardware, interior, labels when relevant)

✧ Measurements are always included

✧ Flaws are written clearly — not hidden in vague language

✧ Condition is described in a consistent way so you can compare items easily

Vintage pieces will almost always show some signs of life — and that’s part of the charm. The goal is to help you understand exactly what you’re getting.

Drop 001 is a love letter to that early-2000s feeling: a little glossy, a little playful, a little iconic.

Think:

♡ Small shoulder bags

♡ Recognizable monograms

♡ Standout hardware

♡ Prints that instantly time-travel you

Some pieces are hard to find in good condition, and some are the quieter gems that look even better in real life than in photos.

I’m based in Geneva, and I ship with care: protective packaging, clear communication, and tracking whenever available.

If you ever have a question before ordering — measurements, wear, styling, anything — just reach out. I want this to feel personal and safe, because it is.

If you want to follow along, check back for the next drop (and if you see a bag you love, don’t wait too long — most pieces are one-of-one).

Thanks for being here at the beginning ♡
