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 a Chanel Wallet On Chain (WOC)? A: With its compact footprint (approx. 19 × 13 × 5 cm on this piece) and built‑in card slots, it is ideal for a large smartphone, passport, keys, lipstick and a few slim essentials. To maintain the sleek shape and easy snap closure, keep items flat and avoid bulky cases or overfilling. Refer to the Measurements and photos on this page for exact capacity of this item.
Q: Will a large smartphone (e.g., iPhone Pro Max) fit in the WOC? A: Many owners report that a Pro/Pro Max‑sized phone fits when placed flat and without a thick case, though the fit can be snug and depends on what else you carry. If overfilled, the snap may be harder to close. For best results, remove bulky cases and keep contents minimal.
Q: How is the interior laid out? A: The classic WOC layout includes six card slots, a main compartment, interior slip sections and zipped pockets (including one under the flap). This specific bag also features card slots and a zipped pocket as seen in our product photography and description.
Q: Is the chain strap adjustable or removable? A: The WOC’s leather‑interwoven chain is not designed to be removable or formally adjustable. The drop on this piece is approximately 62 cm, which typically works well cross‑body. Many owners shorten the look by looping the chain inside the bag before closing the flap.
Q: How can I wear it? A: The WOC is versatile and can be styled cross‑body, on the shoulder, doubled for a shorter drop, or with the chain tucked in as a clutch or an oversized wallet.
Q: What are the benefits of Chanel’s caviar leather on this bag? A: Caviar (grained calfskin) is known for its textured finish and day‑to‑day durability, showing scratches and fingerprints less readily than lambskin while remaining structured and elegant.
Q: How should I care for this WOC? A: Keep it away from prolonged light and humidity, wipe gently with a soft cloth, and store upright in a breathable pouch with the chain wrapped to avoid marks. Avoid overstuffing and keep items flat so the snap and quilting keep their shape over time.
Q: What does the serial number 26215913 indicate? A: A Chanel serial number beginning with 26 (26xxxxxx) corresponds to production in 2019. This aligns with the sticker format used before Chanel introduced microchipped plates in later years.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed in the product information on this page. For this specific piece, that is a dust bag and a serial number tag. If you need confirmation of any detail, feel free to contact us.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously vetted by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, stitching, hardware, stamping and serial details. We stand behind the authenticity of all items and are happy to provide further information on request.
