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 the Chanel CC Trapezoid Flap Bag? A: With measurements of 21.5 x 18 x 7 cm, this bag is well suited to daily essentials such as a phone, a small wallet or card holder, keys, lipstick, and a few compact personal items. It is best for light, organised packing rather than bulkier items.
Q: Can this bag be worn across the body? A: With a strap measurement of 55 cm, it is best considered a shoulder bag or long-shoulder style. Depending on your height and preferred fit, it may also work across the body, but we recommend checking the listed measurements against a bag you already wear comfortably.
Q: What are the main design details of this bag? A: This vintage piece features black leather, gold-tone hardware, a woven chain and leather shoulder strap, red leather lining with internal pockets, and a flap closure with the iconic CC turn-lock.
Q: What does the serial number indicate? A: The serial begins with 1, which places the bag in the 1989 to 1991 production period. That matches the vintage dating provided in the product information for this item.
Q: Is the authenticity card enough on its own to confirm authenticity? A: Collectors generally treat the authenticity card and serial sticker as helpful supporting details rather than the only proof. Authentication is typically based on the full item, including materials, construction, hardware, stamps, and era-specific details. This bag also comes from A Retro Tale, where pieces are carefully vetted for authenticity.
Q: What is included with this item? A: The product information for this item lists an authenticity card and serial sticker. If a box, dust bag, or any other item is not listed in the product information, it should not be assumed to be included.
Q: What is the condition of this bag? A: It is rated Very Good condition overall. The exterior shows scuffing on the edges, scratches on the leather, and some peeling on the top. The interior shows a light trace of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches.
Q: How should I care for this vintage leather Chanel bag? A: Avoid overfilling it, keep it away from prolonged sunlight, moisture, perfume, and harsh cleaning products, and wipe it gently with a soft cloth. When not in use, store it upright and lightly stuffed in a breathable pouch or dust bag to help maintain its shape. For deeper cleaning or restoration, a specialist in vintage luxury leather is the safest choice.
