Delivery & Returns
Q: What size is this Chanel 2012 Denim Camellia Medium Flap Bag? A: This medium single flap bag measures approximately 25.5 x 16.5 x 6 cm, giving it the classic medium flap look with a relatively slim profile.
Q: What typically fits inside this bag? A: It will generally hold everyday essentials such as a phone, card holder or compact wallet, keys, lipstick and a few small personal items. Because the bag is only around 6 cm deep, it is best suited to streamlined essentials rather than bulky purses, tablets or larger pouches.
Q: Can this bag be worn crossbody? A: The strap drop is approximately 57 cm. For most adults it is best worn on the shoulder, although on some petite frames it may sit long enough for a crossbody-style look.
Q: Does it have any internal pockets or compartments? A: Yes. It has a navy fabric lining with one internal pocket, which is useful for keeping smaller essentials separate and easy to reach.
Q: Is a Chanel denim flap bag easy to style? A: Yes, many collectors consider Chanel denim bags easy to wear because denim works as a neutral and pairs well with both casual daytime outfits and more polished evening looks. The camellia pattern gives this piece extra character while still feeling versatile.
Q: Is denim a practical material for regular use? A: Denim gives the bag a softer, more relaxed feel than a formal leather flap, but it is generally more delicate than leather. Over time it can show rubbing, staining and fraying more easily, so it is usually better suited to careful regular use rather than very hard daily wear.
Q: What is the condition of this specific bag? A: It is listed in good condition overall. The exterior has visible wear and fraying on the denim edges, with slight staining to the base. The interior shows light traces of use, and the hardware is still shiny with light scratches.
Q: What is included with this item? A: The product information lists the serial number and a dust bag. If an authenticity card, box or any other original item is not mentioned in the product information, it should not be assumed to be included.
Q: How can I tell this bag is from 2012? A: Chanel bags from this period used serial stickers, and this bag has serial number 16088014. A 16-series serial is consistent with 2012 production, which aligns with how similar Denim Camellia flap bags from the same era are dated on the resale market.
Q: How should I care for a vintage Chanel denim bag? A: Store it upright in its dust bag, lightly filled with tissue to help maintain its shape, and avoid overfilling. Keep it away from prolonged sunlight, moisture and repeated rubbing against rough or strongly coloured materials, as Chanel notes that fabric bags can be delicate and may experience colour transfer or bleeding. For stains or deeper cleaning, specialist care is the safest option.
