Delivery & Returns
Q: What size is this Chanel Envelope Flap Bag? A: This is a small vintage shoulder bag. The measurements are approximately 22 x 15 x 6 cm, with a strap drop of about 48 cm. That makes it a compact day-to-evening size that sits close to the small Chanel flap format.
Q: What typically fits inside? A: It is best suited to essentials such as a phone, card holder or small wallet, keys, lipstick, and other slim daily items. Because the bag is relatively slim, bulkier purses, larger sunglasses cases, and tablets are unlikely to fit comfortably.
Q: Can it be worn crossbody? A: The strap drop is approximately 48 cm. For most people, this style will wear best on the shoulder. On a smaller frame it may sit as a short crossbody, but the fit depends on height and proportions.
Q: How is the interior organised? A: The bag has tonal leather lining, one internal pocket, and an envelope flap closure. It is designed for a neat, compact carry rather than high-capacity storage.
Q: Is this bag vintage, and what does the serial number suggest? A: Yes, this piece is listed as vintage. It has serial number 0424010, and Chanel serial guides generally place 0-series numbers in the late 1980s. As with all vintage Chanel, the serial number is helpful for dating, but it is only one part of the overall authentication process.
Q: What product information are included with this item? A: This item includes a dust bag and serial number. If a box, authenticity card, or any other extra is not listed in the product information for this item, it is not included with the bag.
Q: What is the condition of this bag? A: The overall condition is very good. The exterior shows visible rubbing on the corners, the interior has light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. This is consistent with a well-kept vintage piece.
Q: How should I care for the leather? A: Avoid overfilling the bag, prolonged exposure to sunlight or moisture, and repeated rubbing against rough or dark fabrics. Gently wipe it with a soft cloth and store it upright in its dust bag when not in use. Because this is a vintage red leather bag, extra care with friction and colour transfer is advisable.
Q: How do you authenticate this Chanel bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is reviewed for authenticity using material, construction, hardware, stamps, and serial details. For vintage Chanel pieces, the serial number supports authentication, but it does not prove authenticity on its own.
