This vintage Chanel CC Chain Tote Bag in black quilted leather with silver-tone hardware is in very good condition. Featuring dual chain and leather handles and a beige canvas-lined interior with internal pockets, it is an elegant choice for day-to-day wear, office hours or city outings.
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 CC Chain Tote Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 31 × 21 × 13 cm, it is well suited to daily essentials such as a long wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses, a small cosmetics pouch and a compact tablet. The beige canvas-lined interior also includes internal pockets for smaller items, and the structured shape is best preserved by avoiding overfilling.
Q: Will it fit a laptop or A4 paperwork? A: It is not the ideal choice for most laptops or bulky A4 folders. A slim tablet or small organiser is a better fit. If you plan to carry heavier items regularly, a larger shopper-style bag would usually be more practical.
Q: How can this bag be carried? A: This bag has dual chain-and-leather shoulder straps with an approximate 25 cm drop. It is designed for shoulder carry rather than crossbody wear, and the straps are not adjustable.
Q: Is caviar leather a good choice for everyday use? A: Yes. Chanel caviar leather is prized for its textured finish, structure and better resistance to everyday scuffs than smoother lambskin. It is a practical option for regular use, although this is still a vintage luxury piece and should be handled with care.
Q: What does the serial number 15728000 indicate? A: The serial number places this bag in Chanel’s sticker-era production and indicates an early-2010s piece, approximately 2011. As with all Chanel bags, the serial number helps with dating and authentication, but it does not identify the exact style on its own.
Q: What product information accompanies this bag? A: The listed product information for this piece includes the serial number. No authenticity card, box or dust bag is noted, so only the items specifically listed on this page should be assumed to be included.
Q: What is the condition of this bag? A: The overall condition is rated Very Good. There is scuffing on the corners, some creasing to the leather, minor interior marks, and the silver-tone hardware remains shiny with light scratches.
Q: Is it comfortable for day-to-day shoulder wear? A: Yes, the 25 cm strap drop is practical for shoulder wear. As with many chain-handle totes, it is most comfortable when carried with daily essentials rather than heavy loads, which also helps protect the structure of the bag.
Q: How should I care for and store it? A: Wipe it gently with a soft, dry cloth and avoid harsh cleaners, perfume, prolonged sunlight and humidity. If it gets wet, pat it dry rather than rubbing. Store it upright in a pouch, lightly stuffed with tissue, and wrap the chains so they do not mark the leather when not in use.
Q: How is this bag authenticated? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is checked by in-house experts using a multi-point review of materials, construction, hardware, stamps and serial details.
