This vintage Chanel CC Small Vanity Top Handle Bag in black quilted leather with gold-tone hardware is a polished choice for lunches, city outings or evening plans. In good condition with light traces of use, it features a top handle, chain-link shoulder strap and zip-around closure for refined day-to-night wear.
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 the Chanel CC Small Vanity Top Handle Bag? A: This small structured bag is best for compact essentials such as a phone, card holder, keys, lipstick and earbuds. With measurements of approximately 18 × 10 × 8 cm, it is ideal for light daily use or day-to-evening wear rather than bulkier items or a long wallet.
Q: Will it fit a smartphone? A: A standard smartphone should generally fit, but the structured shape means very large phones or bulky cases may be snug. If this is important to you, we recommend comparing your phone to the listed measurements before purchasing.
Q: Can it be worn on the shoulder or crossbody? A: It features both a top handle and a chain-link shoulder strap. With the strap measurement listed as 55 cm, it will usually sit comfortably on the shoulder and may work as a shorter crossbody depending on your height and preferred fit.
Q: Is a vanity bag practical for everyday use? A: For light packers, yes. Chanel vanity styles are popular because they are structured, secure and surprisingly roomy for essentials. The main trade-off is that a zip-around design is a little less quick to access than an open-top or flap bag.
Q: How is the interior organised? A: This bag has black leather lining, one internal pocket and a zip-around closure. That layout helps keep smaller items neatly separated and secure while maintaining the compact vanity silhouette.
Q: Is this a vintage piece? A: Yes, this bag is listed as vintage. Minor age-related wear is normal in vintage Chanel pieces and is part of their character, so the condition notes should always be read alongside the photos and measurements.
Q: What is the condition of this item? A: Overall it is in good condition with light signs of use. The exterior shows light traces of wear, the interior has scuffs and scratches, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This piece comes with the box and serial number, as listed in the product information. If another item is not listed there, it should not be assumed to be included.
Q: How should I care for this vintage quilted leather bag? A: Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep it lightly stuffed when not in use, avoid overfilling, and wipe it gently with a soft dry cloth after carrying. Extra care around the corners, handle and zip will help preserve its structure and finish.
