Q: What typically fits in the Medium Classic Single Flap?
A: With approximate measurements of 26 × 16 × 7.5 cm, it comfortably holds a large smartphone, a small or compact wallet, keys, lipstick, and other small daily essentials. A slim sunglasses sleeve can fit, but bulkier cases, water bottles, and tablets are generally too large. Capacity will vary based on how you pack.

Q: Can the strap be worn crossbody?
A: This piece has a single, non-adjustable shoulder strap with an approximate 43 cm drop. It is primarily designed to be worn on the shoulder. Some may wear it crossbody depending on height and build, but it will sit higher on most frames—please refer to the strap measurement to judge your fit.

Q: What is the difference between a single flap and a double flap?
A: A single flap has one main exterior flap covering the interior, making the bag lighter and a touch roomier. A double flap adds a second internal flap, which increases structure and weight. Single-flap Classic styles are from earlier production years and are no longer part of current collections, so they are considered vintage.

Q: How should I care for the caramel patent leather?
A: Patent leather is coated for a high-shine finish but can be prone to colour transfer and stickiness if exposed to heat or humidity. Avoid prolonged contact with dark or non-colourfast fabrics (for example, denim), keep it away from direct sunlight and high heat, and store it in a cool, dry place. Wipe gently with a soft, slightly damp, lint-free cloth and avoid oils, alcohol, or harsh solvents.

Q: Is the bag water-resistant?
A: Patent leather offers some resistance to light moisture, but it is not waterproof. If it gets wet, blot dry promptly with a soft cloth and allow it to air dry naturally, away from heat sources. Prolonged exposure to rain may mark the finish and should be avoided.

Q: Does the silver-toned hardware tarnish?
A: Chanel hardware is metal-plated and can show light surface scratches with wear. Avoid contact with perfumes, lotions, and hand sanitisers, and buff gently with a clean, dry cloth when needed. The hardware on this piece is described as shiny with light scratches.

Q: What does serial number 6341903 indicate?
A: This is a 7‑digit “6‑series” code that typically corresponds to production around 2000–2002. Serial codes help date a piece but should be considered alongside other authentication details such as stamps, stitching, and materials.

Q: Which accessories are included with this item?
A: This bag comes with a box, authenticity card, brand booklet, and serial number tag. Please note the serial sticker is peeling and the brand stamp has faded, as reflected in the Condition section.

Q: How do you authenticate this bag?
A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully examined by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, quilting, stitching, hardware, stamps, and serial codes. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and are happy to provide additional photos or details on request.

Q: How should I store the bag to maintain its shape and shine?
A: Store it loosely stuffed to support the silhouette, with the chain tucked inside to prevent impressions on the patent surface. Place it in a breathable dust bag in a cool, dry cupboard, away from direct light and humidity. Do not overfill during use, as this can distort the structure over time.
