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 Lambskin Flap Chain Bag? A: With approximate dimensions of 21 x 20 x 9 cm, it is best suited to daily essentials such as a phone, compact wallet or card holder, keys, sunglasses, and a few small cosmetics. It will not fit bulkier items such as a tablet or laptop. Capacity can vary slightly depending on how you pack, so the Measurements on this page are the best guide.
Q: Can this bag be worn crossbody? A: The strap drop is approximately 51 cm. For most people, that makes it most comfortable as a shoulder bag. Depending on your height and preferred fit, it may sit lower on the shoulder or work as a shorter crossbody on some frames, but it is not typically considered a long crossbody style.
Q: How is the interior arranged? A: This bag features a burgundy leather lining with two compartments, which helps keep everyday essentials more organised. It closes with a classic CC turn-lock flap for secure storage.
Q: Is Chanel lambskin leather delicate? A: Yes. Lambskin is loved for its soft, smooth feel and elegant finish, but it is generally more prone to visible scratches, corner wear and pressure marks than grained leathers. Many collectors still prefer it for its refined look, especially in classic black with gold-tone hardware, but it does benefit from gentler handling.
Q: How should I care for the lambskin leather? A: Store the bag upright, lightly stuffed, and away from direct sunlight, moisture and rough fabrics. Avoid overfilling it, and use a soft dry cloth for gentle surface care. If light marks appear, very gentle circular buffing can help, but for deeper cleaning or colour restoration, specialist leather care is the safest option.
Q: What does the serial number 4413121 indicate? A: This bag carries a 7-digit Chanel serial number. In Chanel’s earlier serial system, a 4-series number generally dates a bag to around 1996 to 1997. The serial number is an important dating clue, although authentication should always consider the leather, stitching, hardware and overall construction as well.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This piece includes the serial number sticker noted in the product information. If an authenticity card, box, dust bag or any other item is not listed in the product information, it should be assumed not to be included.
Q: What is the condition of this bag? A: The exterior is in very good vintage condition with visible scuffing on the corners. The interior is in good condition with light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. As with most vintage lambskin bags, gentle signs of age are normal and part of the bag’s character.
Q: How do you authenticate a vintage Chanel bag? A: At A Retro Tale, each Chanel bag is reviewed for key authenticity markers such as leather quality, quilting alignment, hardware details, interior markings, serial sticker format and overall craftsmanship. We stand behind the authenticity of the items we sell, and you are welcome to contact us if you would like more product information before purchasing.
