Q: What typically fits inside this Chanel Classic Caviar Medium Double Flap Bag?
A: With measurements of approximately 26 × 16 × 7 cm, this medium size is ideal for daily essentials such as a phone, a compact wallet, keys, cards, lipstick and sunglasses in a slim case. The double-flap construction gives great organisation, though it slightly reduces usable space compared with a single-compartment bag.

Q: Can this bag be worn on the shoulder or crossbody?
A: Yes, it can be worn on the shoulder, and the chain-and-leather strap can be styled short or long. Based on the listed strap drop of 24/43 cm, it is best suited to shoulder wear; on some more petite frames it may work crossbody, but for most people it is not considered a true long crossbody length.

Q: What does “double flap” mean?
A: A double-flap Chanel has both the iconic front flap and an additional interior flap. This design adds structure, security and the classic layered interior look that many collectors love, though it does make the bag slightly less roomy than it first appears.

Q: Is caviar leather durable?
A: Yes. Chanel’s caviar leather is known for its textured finish and is generally more resistant to scratches and daily wear than smoother leathers such as lambskin. It is still a luxury leather, so it should be handled with care and kept away from prolonged moisture, direct heat and colour transfer.

Q: How should I care for this bag?
A: Wipe it gently with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth, avoid harsh cleaners, and do not overfill it so the structure stays crisp. When not in use, store it in a cool, dry place and lightly stuff the interior to help maintain its shape.
