Perfect for weddings, gallery openings or dinner dates, this vintage Chanel Wallet on Chain in brown grained leather with gold‑tone hardware lends refined ease. Wear the interwoven chain on your shoulder; a tonal lining with main compartment, internal and external zip pockets, and a snap‑button flap keep essentials secure from day to night.
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 mini Wallet on Chain? A: Based on this item’s compact measurements (approx. 15 × 9.5 × 1 cm), it comfortably carries cards, folded notes, coins in the zip pocket, a key fob, lipstick and other slim essentials. Compact smartphones up to around 14 cm in length may fit without a bulky case; larger phones and chunky items are unlikely to fit. Capacity always depends on how you pack—please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact dimensions.
Q: Can I wear it crossbody and how long is the strap? A: Yes—this piece has a single leather‑interwoven chain with an approximate drop of 52 cm, which typically sits around the high hip to waist on most frames. Strap drop can feel shorter or longer depending on height and build. You can also double the chain or tuck part of it inside to convert it to a shoulder bag or clutch without detaching the strap.
Q: Is the chain removable? A: The classic Wallet on Chain design is not intended to have a removable strap. Some seasonal variations have appeared over the years, but this vintage mini style is designed with a fixed chain. To shorten the carry, simply double the chain through the flap or tuck it inside to wear as a clutch.
Q: Will a passport fit? A: A standard passport is roughly 12.5 × 9 cm and can fit flat in the main compartment of this piece. However, capacity is slim; we recommend avoiding bulky covers and overfilling to preserve the shape and snap closure.
Q: Is the hardware real gold‑plated on this vintage piece? A: Many Chanel bags produced in the 1980s through about 2008 featured 24‑karat gold‑plated hardware; after that period Chanel moved to gold‑tone finishes. Given this bag’s 1994–1996 production era, the hardware may be gold‑plated, but we list it as gold‑tone and cannot guarantee plating on an individual piece. Please review the photos and contact us for close‑ups if needed.
Q: What does a serial number starting with 3****** indicate? A: A 3‑series serial number corresponds to approximately 1994–1996 production. This piece includes its serial number tag, which supports dating; note that a matching serial alone does not authenticate an item—overall construction and materials are assessed as well.
Q: When did Chanel introduce the Wallet on Chain and how does this item compare? A: The Wallet on Chain, as a named style, was introduced around 1997. This mini chain wallet from the mid‑1990s shares the same crossbody‑friendly concept on a smaller scale, emphasising essentials‑only capacity and a lightweight profile.
Q: How is the interior organised? A: This vintage mini features a main compartment with an internal zip pocket for coins or valuables and an external zip pocket for quick‑access items. It does not have dedicated card slots, so a separate card holder may be useful.
Q: How should I care for the brown grained (caviar) leather? A: Grained/caviar leather is prized for its durability and scratch resistance, but it still benefits from gentle care. Wipe with a soft, dry cloth; avoid harsh cleaners, oils and prolonged exposure to sunlight, heat or humidity. When storing, keep the bag loosely stuffed, wrap the chain to prevent imprints, and place it upright in a breathable pouch.
Q: What is included with this item and how do you authenticate it? A: Everything included is listed in the product information section; for this piece, the serial number tag is included unless otherwise stated. Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes multi‑point authentication by our in‑house experts, assessing materials, stitching, stamps, hardware and the serial tag to ensure authenticity.
