Ideal for travel organisation, evenings out, or keeping daily essentials neatly stored inside a larger tote.
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 Quilted Vinyl Vanity Pouch? A: With approximate dimensions of 23 x 13 x 8 cm, this pouch is best suited to compact daily essentials such as a phone, cardholder, keys, lipstick, tissues and other slim items. It is not designed for bulkier belongings, so we recommend checking the Measurements on this page if you plan to carry a larger wallet or similar items.
Q: Is this a practical everyday piece or more of an occasion pouch? A: Chanel vanity styles are loved for their structured, compact shape, but they are usually chosen for essentials rather than heavy everyday carry. This vintage pouch works especially well for light day-to-evening use, travel organisation, or as a chic cosmetic-style pouch inside a larger bag.
Q: Does this pouch have a shoulder strap or handle? A: No strap or handle is listed in the product information for this item. This means it is best considered a hand-held vanity pouch rather than a shoulder or crossbody style.
Q: What is included with this pouch? A: This piece comes with a serial number tag and an authenticity card. Everything included with the item is listed in the product information, so if something is not mentioned there, it should not be assumed to be included.
Q: What does the serial number 3899170 indicate? A: Chanel 7-digit serial numbers beginning with 3 are generally associated with production in the mid-1990s, approximately 1994 to 1996. This is useful for dating the piece, although a serial number should always be considered alongside the materials, hardware, stamps and overall construction when assessing authenticity.
Q: Is the authenticity card enough to confirm a vintage Chanel piece? A: Not on its own. Buyers often ask about this, and the usual expert advice is that the serial sticker or tag and authenticity card are helpful supporting details, but they should always be checked together with the stitching, quilting, hardware, brand stamp, lining and overall craftsmanship.
Q: How should I care for vintage quilted vinyl? A: Wipe it gently with a soft dry or slightly damp cloth and avoid harsh cleaners, alcohol-based products and abrasive rubbing. Keep it away from prolonged heat, strong sunlight and rough surfaces, as vintage vinyl can mark, lose lustre or become tacky over time. Store it in a cool, dry place and avoid overfilling it so the shape stays neat.
Q: Is vinyl a durable material for a vintage pouch? A: Vinyl is generally easy to wipe clean and can handle light surface moisture better than some delicate finishes, but it still needs careful handling. With age, vinyl can scuff, mark, discolour or become sticky if exposed to heat, oils or unsuitable storage conditions, so gentle use and good storage matter.
Q: What condition should I expect from this specific piece? A: This pouch is listed in very good vintage condition overall. Please note the detailed signs of wear: scuffed corners and marks around the pouch, wear on the brand stamp and serial sticker inside, plus scratches and discolouration to the hardware. These are typical age-related signs for a vintage Chanel piece, so we recommend reviewing all photos closely.
