Q: How should I care for a vintage raffia Chanel bag?
A: Raffia and fabric-trimmed bags are best handled gently. Avoid overfilling, prolonged sunlight, humidity, repeated rubbing and contact with dark or abrasive materials. If the bag gets damp, blot it gently rather than rubbing, and store it upright in its pouch with light tissue inside to help maintain its shape.

Q: Is a white raffia Chanel bag practical for everyday use?
A: It can work for careful day-to-day use, especially in dry weather, but raffia is generally more delicate than leather and lighter colours can show wear more easily. Many buyers prefer styles like this for spring and summer dressing, holidays and occasion use.
