Delivery & Returns
Q: What typically fits inside the Chanel Accordion Single Flap Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 29 × 18 × 12 cm and three compartments plus one internal pocket, it comfortably fits daily essentials such as a smartphone, wallet, keys, sunglasses in a soft case, and a small cosmetics pouch. A small tablet or A5 notebook may fit, but bulky items will reduce how neatly the flap closes. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact dimensions.
Q: Can it be worn crossbody? A: The strap is listed at 25/45 cm, so it can be worn doubled for a shorter shoulder drop or longer for a lower shoulder carry. On some frames the longer setting may work as a short crossbody, but for most it is best considered a shoulder bag. Comparing the listed drop with a bag you already own is the best way to judge the fit.
Q: What does “accordion” mean on this bag? A: It refers to the structured, sectioned interior. This piece has three compartments, which helps keep essentials better organised and allows the bag to expand slightly while still holding its shape. To preserve the silhouette, avoid overfilling.
Q: Is this a single or double flap? A: This is a single-flap design, meaning there is one main exterior flap with a CC turn-lock closure. Single-flap bags are often appreciated for being a little lighter and easier to access than double-flap styles.
Q: What does the serial number indicate? A: The listed serial number is 18930016. On vintage Chanel bags, the serial number is an important reference point for identification and dating, but it should always be considered alongside the leather, hardware, construction and overall craftsmanship when assessing authenticity.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This bag is listed as coming with the serial number. If an authenticity card, box or dust bag is not mentioned in the product information, it should not be assumed to be included.
Q: How should I care for black lambskin leather? A: Lambskin is soft and delicate, so handle it gently. Avoid overfilling, prolonged exposure to sunlight, moisture and rough surfaces. If light marks appear, wipe very gently with a soft, dry cloth and store the bag upright with the chain tucked or wrapped to help protect the leather and maintain its shape.
Q: What condition is this bag in? A: Overall, it is listed in very good condition. The exterior shows scuffing on the corners and slight creasing to the leather, the interior has light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. As with most vintage pieces, minor signs of wear are part of its character.
