Q: What are the signature features of the Cambon Tote? A: Hallmarks include diamond-quilted calfskin leather, an oversized offset CC logo (often in a contrasting colour), dual rolled leather handles with knotted bases, a logo-jacquard fabric lining (commonly fuchsia), an external slip pocket and a top zip closure. Many pieces feature silver-tone hardware. This specific bag also has protective base studs and interior zip and slip pockets.
Q: What typically fits inside this bag? A: With approximate measurements of 34 × 24 × 14 cm, it comfortably holds A4 documents, a tablet, a long wallet, phone, sunglasses case and a small pouch or water bottle. A slim 13-inch laptop may fit, but we do not recommend carrying a laptop regularly as it can add weight and may alter the bag’s shape; use a padded sleeve if needed.
Q: Is it comfortable on the shoulder and what is the handle drop? A: The handle drop on this piece is approximately 22 cm, allowing both shoulder and hand carry for most users. The rolled, knotted handles are designed to sit comfortably under the arm.
Q: Is the Cambon Tote heavy compared with other Chanel totes? A: Owners often find the Cambon tote relatively lightweight and capacious for its size. Carrying a laptop or heavy items can increase weight and may affect the bag’s structure, so pack thoughtfully for daily use.
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.

Delivery & Returns
Q: Is the Chanel Cambon Tote still available new in boutiques? A: No. The Cambon Ligne, including this tote, was discontinued around 2012 and is now only found on the pre-owned market.

A: Hallmarks include diamond-quilted calfskin leather, an oversized offset CC logo (often in a contrasting colour), dual rolled leather handles with knotted bases, a logo-jacquard fabric lining (commonly fuchsia), an external slip pocket and a top zip closure.

Q: How can I tell when this bag was made from its serial number? A: This bag’s serial number is 13612940. Chanel’s eight-digit serials beginning with 13 typically correspond to the 2009–2010 production period. Note that a serial code alone does not confirm authenticity; it should be assessed alongside materials, stampings and construction details.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes multi-point checks by our in‑house experts, reviewing leather and quilting, stitching, hardware and engravings, heat stamps, and the serial sticker. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can share further product information on request.
Q: What product information is included with this item? A: The listing shows the serial number is included. If an item such as an authenticity card, dust bag or box is not listed under product information, it is not included.
Q: How should I care for the quilted calfskin leather? A: Avoid overfilling to preserve the silhouette, and limit prolonged contact between light and dark colours to reduce colour transfer. Keep away from direct sunlight and moisture. After use, wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth; if the leather gets wet, dab dry with an absorbent, non‑pilling cloth. For conditioning or deeper cleaning, consult a professional leather specialist.
Q: How do I clean the fabric lining? A: For minor marks, lightly spot clean with a soft, slightly damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap, taking care not to saturate the fabric. Do not use leather cleaners on the textile lining. For stubborn stains, seek a professional bag spa.
Q: Is the Cambon Tote heavy compared with other Chanel totes? A: Owners often find the Cambon tote relatively lightweight and capacious for its size. Carrying a laptop or heavy items can increase weight and may affect the bag’s structure, so pack thoughtfully for daily use.
