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 typically fits inside this Chanel CC Raffia Tote Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 41 x 25 x 8 cm, it is well suited to daily essentials such as a wallet, phone, sunglasses, keys, a cosmetics pouch, and a notebook or A4 documents. A slim 13-inch laptop may fit depending on its sleeve and shape, but we recommend comparing your item to the listed measurements for the best guide.
Q: Can this bag be carried on the shoulder? A: The bag has dual rolled leather handles with an approximate handle drop of 13 cm. Many people will be able to carry it on the shoulder over light clothing, though it may feel snug. It is also comfortable carried by hand or in the crook of the arm.
Q: Is the interior lined and does it have any pockets? A: Yes. This tote is lined in brown textile and includes one internal zipped pocket, which is useful for smaller essentials you want to keep separate and easy to find.
Q: How should I care for a vintage raffia Chanel bag? A: Raffia should be handled gently. Avoid prolonged exposure to rain, moisture, direct sunlight, and heavy overfilling. For light surface marks, use a soft dry cloth or dab very gently with a slightly damp cloth on the raffia only, then allow it to air dry naturally. Take extra care around the leather trim and avoid harsh cleaning products.
Q: Is raffia durable enough for everyday use? A: Raffia offers a beautiful lightweight, summery look, but it is generally more delicate than an all-leather bag. It is best used with lighter essentials and careful handling rather than heavy daily loads. As this vintage example already shows some corner fraying, thoughtful use and storage are especially important.
Q: What does the serial number 5622543 indicate? A: This bag includes serial number 5622543. Chanel 7-digit serial numbers beginning with 5 are generally associated with production in the late 1990s, approximately 1997 to 1999. As with all vintage Chanel pieces, the serial number is an important dating detail, but it is only one part of the overall authentication picture.
Q: What product information is included with this item? A: The listed product information includes the serial number. If an authenticity card, box, dust bag, or any other item is not specifically listed in the product information, it should not be assumed to be included.
Q: What is the condition of this bag? A: This bag is described as being in very good vintage condition overall. The exterior has fraying on the corners, the interior shows stains, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. We recommend reviewing all photos and the condition notes carefully to get the best sense of its current character and wear.
Q: How is authenticity assessed for a vintage Chanel bag like this? A: Authenticity is assessed through a combination of details rather than one feature alone. For a vintage Chanel bag, this typically includes the serial number, construction, stitching, logo details, materials, lining, and hardware consistency. A Retro Tale vets its items carefully before listing.
