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 are the measurements and how does it wear?
A: This Chanel Wallet On Chain measures approximately 19 × 13 × 3 cm. The chain strap has an approximate drop of 62 cm for crossbody wear and about 23 cm when doubled for a shorter shoulder carry. You can also tuck the chain inside to carry it as a clutch.
Q: What typically fits inside a Chanel WOC?
A: The WOC is compact but well organised. It generally holds a smartphone up to around 16 cm in height, passport, keys, a lipstick and notes/coins. Because it has built-in card slots, you usually do not need a separate wallet, which frees up space. Always compare your own items to the measurements above for the best fit.
Q: Will an iPhone Pro/Pro Max fit?
A: Many owners report that larger phones can fit if cases are slim or removed, sometimes placed diagonally. Others find the largest models tight depending on the series and what else is inside. If you use a bulky case, it may be a squeeze—please check your phone against the internal space and consider a slim case.
Q: How is the interior laid out?
A: Classic WOCs typically feature around six card slots, a zipped pocket, a main compartment and additional slim slip pockets, plus a rear exterior pocket. Details can vary slightly by series and season.
Q: Is caviar leather durable and how should I care for it?
A: Chanel’s caviar leather is a grained calfskin known for being more scratch-resistant and structured than lambskin. Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth, avoid overfilling, keep away from prolonged direct sunlight and moisture, and store loosely stuffed in a breathable dust bag to help maintain shape.
Q: Can the chain be shortened if it sits too low on me?
A: Yes—many owners simply loop the chain inside the bag or use a small, gentle strap-shortening clip. If you use a clip, position it carefully and avoid overtightening to prevent marks on the leather.
Q: What is included with this specific item?
A: Everything included is listed in the product information on this page. For this piece, the product information notes a box, dust bag and serial number. If you would like us to confirm any detail, please contact us.
Q: Where was this piece made?
A: The product information indicates France.
Q: Is this item authentic?
A: Yes. Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes rigorous multi‑point authentication by our in‑house experts, including checks of materials, stitching, hardware and markings. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell.
Q: Any tips to maximise space without damaging the bag?
A: Use the built‑in card slots instead of a separate wallet, stick to slim essentials, and avoid overstuffing so the flap closes without strain. This helps preserve the shape and the snap‑button closure over time.
