An easy companion for travel and daily life, this vintage Chanel cosmetic pouch slips neatly into a tote or carry-on, keeping make-up and small essentials beautifully organised. Ideal for weekend getaways, office days, or a desk-to-dinner refresh.
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 cosmetic pouch? A: With dimensions of approximately 17 × 11 × 5 cm and a zip‑around opening, it holds daily essentials such as lipstick, mascara, compact powder, blotting papers, a small hand cream, a travel‑size perfume, a short make‑up brush (around 16 cm), a slim cardholder and keys. Capacity varies slightly depending on how you pack—please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact sizing.
Q: What leather is this, and how should I care for it? A: It is crafted in quilted lambskin leather with a contrasting white CC logo and silver‑tone hardware. Care by wiping with a soft cloth only, avoid chemical cleaners or conditioners that may alter the finish, keep away from prolonged light and humidity, and for light surface marks gently buff in small circular motions. If it becomes wet, blot carefully with an absorbent, non‑pilling cloth and allow to dry naturally.
Q: Is lambskin water‑resistant? A: No. Lambskin is not water‑resistant and should be protected from rain and moisture. If exposure occurs, blot gently and let it air‑dry away from direct heat sources.
Q: Is colour transfer a risk with the white CC logo? A: Yes. Light leathers can pick up dye from darker textiles (for example, raw denim). Avoid prolonged friction against dark fabrics and store the pouch away from printed or dyed materials to minimise transfer.
Q: What does the serial number 9441434 indicate? A: This is a 9‑series, 7‑digit code that typically dates Chanel items to around 2004–2005. Chanel moved from 7‑digit to 8‑digit serials starting with the 10‑series in 2005. The serial helps date a piece but is not proof of authenticity on its own.
Q: Is the Cambon Ligne considered vintage now? A: The Cambon Ligne was introduced around 2004. As a result, early‑to‑mid 2000s examples are generally regarded as vintage on today’s resale market, with desirability depending on condition and colourway.
Q: Can I use it as a small clutch? A: Yes. Many clients carry it handheld for evenings. It has a zip‑around closure and no strap attachments, so it’s best for light essentials rather than heavier items.
Q: How should I store the pouch to keep its shape? A: Empty it after use, lightly stuff with acid‑free tissue, wrap hardware to prevent imprints, and store upright in a breathable dust bag away from direct sunlight and heat. Avoid stacking heavier items on top.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under product information on this page. For this piece, a serial number tag is noted. If an authenticity card, box or dust bag is not listed there, it is not included—feel free to contact us for confirmation.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this Chanel piece? A: Every item is vetted by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, stitching, stamps, serial code and hardware, and is cross‑referenced with known authentic examples. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell.
