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 Classic Caviar Medium Double Flap Bag? A: With measurements of approximately 25.5 x 16 x 7 cm, this Medium size is ideal for daily essentials such as a phone, compact or medium wallet, keys, lipstick, sunglasses and a few slim extras. Because it is a structured double-flap design, bulkier items can make it feel tight more quickly than a softer single-compartment bag.
Q: Is this the classic double flap design? A: Yes. This is a Chanel Classic Medium Double Flap Bag, which means it has both the outer flap and an additional inner flap. Many collectors like this construction because it helps the bag keep its shape over time, although it also makes access slightly more structured than a single-flap style.
Q: Is caviar leather a good choice for regular use? A: Yes. Chanel’s caviar leather is a grained calfskin that is widely loved for its durability, structure and better resistance to everyday scratches than smoother leathers. It is one of the most practical finishes for a Classic Flap, especially if you want a vintage piece that can still be enjoyed regularly.
Q: Can this Medium size be worn crossbody? A: This size is primarily designed as a shoulder bag. Some more petite wearers do style a Medium Classic Flap crossbody, but it usually sits quite high on the body. For most people, it is best suited to shoulder wear rather than relaxed all-day crossbody use.
Q: How should I care for this bag? A: Store it upright in a dust bag or pouch, lightly stuffed to help maintain its shape, and wrap the chain so it does not press into the leather. Avoid overfilling, prolonged sunlight, humidity and colour transfer from dark clothing. If needed, wipe gently with a soft cloth and avoid harsh care products that could alter the finish.
Q: What does the serial number tell me about this bag? A: This bag has serial number 23396888 and includes an authenticity card. Chanel 23-series numbers are generally associated with 2017 production. As with all Chanel bags, the serial number is an important dating clue, but it should always be considered alongside the materials, hardware, stamping and overall craftsmanship.
Q: What is included with this bag? A: The product information for this item lists an authenticity card and serial number. If you would like confirmation of anything else included with the sale, it is always best to check the product information shown on the listing.
Q: What is the condition of this specific bag? A: The exterior and interior are listed as Very Good with light traces of use. The hardware is described as shiny with light scratches. Overall, it presents as a well-kept vintage Chanel piece with gentle signs of previous wear rather than heavy use.
Q: Where was this bag made? A: The country of origin listed for this piece is France, which is consistent with many Chanel Classic Flap bags from this era.
