This vintage Chanel Jumbo Single Flap Bag in black quilted patent leather offers an iconic look with black-toned hardware and a woven chain and leather shoulder strap. In very good condition, it is an elegant choice for day-to-evening wear, whether paired with tailoring in the city or styled for dinner and special occasions.
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 Jumbo Patent Single Flap Bag? A: With approximate dimensions of 30 x 20 x 10 cm, this is a roomy day-sized Chanel flap. It will typically fit a phone, long wallet, keys, sunglasses, and a small cosmetics pouch with ease. Because it is a single-flap design, the interior usually feels a little more open and practical than a comparable double-flap style.
Q: Can this bag be worn crossbody? A: The strap drop is approximately 45 cm, so for most people it is best worn on the shoulder rather than crossbody. On some petite frames it may sit longer on the body, but it is generally considered a shoulder bag first.
Q: What is the difference between a single flap and a double flap Chanel bag? A: A single flap has one main flap rather than an additional inner flap, which usually makes it lighter and a little easier to access. Many collectors also like that it offers slightly more usable interior space, while a double flap often feels more structured.
Q: Is patent leather delicate? A: Yes. Patent leather has a glossy finish, but it still needs careful handling. It can show scuffing, surface marks and colour transfer more easily than some other finishes, so it is best kept away from rough surfaces, dark fabrics, prolonged sunlight, heat and moisture.
Q: How should I care for this bag? A: Wipe it gently with a soft, dry cloth after use and avoid harsh cleaning products. Store it upright in its dust bag, lightly stuffed with tissue to help maintain its shape, and try to keep the chain and leather from pressing into the body of the bag during storage. As with most patent leather, a careful storage routine helps preserve the shine.
Q: What is the condition of this specific bag? A: This piece is listed in very good condition overall. Please note there is visible scuffing and marks on the patent leather, some scratches on the inner flap, and light surface scratches to the hardware, although the hardware remains shiny. We recommend reviewing all photos closely for the best sense of the current finish and wear.
Q: What product information is included with this bag? A: This item comes with the serial number and dust bag. If any other original items are not listed in the product information on this page, they should not be assumed to be included.
Q: What does the serial number tell me about the bag? A: The serial number 4197145 places this bag within Chanel's vintage serial sticker era and generally points to production in the mid-1990s. As with all vintage Chanel pieces, the serial number is one useful dating and authentication detail, but it is considered alongside materials, construction and hardware details.
Q: How do you authenticate a vintage Chanel bag like this? A: At A Retro Tale, vintage Chanel pieces are evaluated through a detailed authentication process that considers construction, leather, quilting, hardware, stamp details and serial information. This helps ensure the bag's authenticity as well as giving a clear picture of its vintage character and condition.
