Delivery & Returns
Q: Is the Chanel Medallion Bag a discontinued style? A: Yes. The Medallion is a discontinued Chanel design, which is one reason it remains popular on the vintage market.
Q: What typically fits inside this bag? A: With listed measurements of approximately 35 x 23 x 15 cm, it works well for daily essentials such as a long wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses case, make-up pouch and a small notebook or tablet. The zipped top keeps contents secure, but the shape is better for everyday items than bulky work gear.
Q: Can it be worn on the shoulder? A: Yes, the dual handles and 15 cm handle drop generally allow shoulder carry for many people. Fit can vary depending on your frame and whether you are wearing a thicker coat.
Q: Will it fit a laptop? A: It is not usually the best choice for most laptops. A slim tablet or very small laptop may fit, but the top zip opening is relatively narrow, so we recommend checking your device against the bag measurements before buying.
Q: What does the serial number 7790865 indicate? A: Chanel serial numbers help estimate the production period. A 7-series number such as 7790865 generally points to an early-2000s piece, around 2001 to 2003. Serial numbers support dating, but they are only one part of authentication.
Q: Is caviar leather a good choice for everyday use? A: Yes. Chanel's caviar leather is a grained calfskin known for better resistance to scratches and daily wear than smoother leathers, which is why many buyers like it for regular use.
Q: What condition is this item in? A: According to the product information, the exterior and interior are both in very good condition with light traces of use, and the hardware is shiny with light scratches.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This item includes the serial number noted in the product information. If an authenticity card, box or dust bag is not listed in the product information, it is best to assume it is not included.
Q: How should I care for this vintage Chanel bag? A: Wipe it gently with a soft dry microfiber cloth, avoid water, perfume, oils and prolonged direct sunlight, and store it upright with light stuffing in a breathable dust bag to help maintain its shape.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: A Retro Tale states that its items are authenticated by in-house experts through a two-step process, and an optional third-party digital certificate is also available on selected items.
