Q: What colour and material is this Chanel tote?
A: This bag is black and is described as a Quilted Caviar Tote Bag. Chanel caviar leather is a pebbled calfskin known for its textured finish and greater resistance to everyday scuffs than smooth lambskin, although it still requires careful handling.

Q: What are the measurements of this bag?
A: The bag measures 30 cm wide, 24 cm high and 11 cm deep. The listed handle measurement is 30 cm; this is not specified as a handle drop.

Q: What can I fit inside this tote?
A: Based on its dimensions, it should accommodate everyday essentials such as a phone, purse, keys and a small cosmetics pouch. Usable capacity depends on the interior layout and the size of your belongings, so avoid overfilling it.

Q: Will this bag fit a laptop?
A: Laptop fit has not been confirmed for this particular bag. Compare your device and its protective sleeve with the bag's 30 × 24 × 11 cm external measurements, allowing for a smaller usable interior and opening. Please ask for confirmation before buying it specifically as a laptop bag.

Q: Can this tote be worn over the shoulder or crossbody?
A: It is categorised as a shoulder bag, but comfort and clearance will depend on your build and clothing. The listed 30 cm handle measurement is not a confirmed drop, and no separate shoulder strap is listed, so crossbody wear cannot be confirmed.

Q: What condition is this pre-owned bag in?
A: This bag is in Very Good Condition. The exterior has minor rubbing on the corners, the interior shows light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. It is not described as new or unworn.

Q: What is included with this bag?
A: The product information lists a serial number tag. A box, dust bag and authenticity card are not listed as included; please ask for confirmation if any of these are important to you.

Q: Is the serial number readable, and can the bag be dated?
A: The serial number is recorded as illegible. A production year therefore cannot be established from the supplied serial number information. The bag's country of origin is listed as France.

Q: Can I use this caviar leather bag in the rain?
A: Do not treat it as waterproof. Chanel recommends avoiding prolonged exposure to moisture. If the bag gets wet, gently dry it with an absorbent, lint-free cloth.

Q: How should I clean and store this Chanel tote?
A: Gently remove surface dust with a soft, dry cloth and avoid cleaning products that could damage the finish. Store the bag upright in a protective pouch, lightly filled with tissue paper to support its shape, and protect the leather from pressure from the handles or hardware. Keep it away from prolonged sunlight and moisture.
