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 Classic Medium Double Flap? A: With measurements of approximately 23 x 14 x 6 cm, it is best suited to daily essentials such as a phone, cardholder or slim wallet, keys, lipstick and a few small items. Because of the structured double-flap interior, the usable space is a little more compact than the outer dimensions suggest, so bulkier items may not fit comfortably.
Q: Can this bag be worn on the shoulder or crossbody? A: This bag has an interwoven chain and leather strap with an approximate 25 cm drop when doubled and 45 cm when worn single. It works well as a shorter shoulder bag or a longer shoulder carry. Depending on height and proportions, it may sit high if worn crossbody, so it is generally best suited to shoulder wear.
Q: What does double flap mean? A: A double flap design has both an exterior flap and an additional interior flap. Many collectors appreciate this construction because it helps the bag keep its structured shape and gives it the classic feel associated with this model.
Q: What product information is included with this item? A: According to the product information, this piece includes a serial number and an authenticity card. If an item such as a box or dust bag is not listed in the product information, it should not be assumed to be included.
Q: What is the condition of this bag? A: It is listed in good vintage condition. The exterior shows wear on the corners and marks on the leather, the interior has pen marks, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. Please review the photos carefully for the clearest impression of its overall condition.
Q: How should I care for a white vintage Chanel bag? A: White leather can show marks and colour transfer more easily, so it is best to avoid prolonged contact with dark denim, dark knits and damp surfaces. Do not overfill the bag, keep it away from direct sunlight and moisture, and store it upright in its pouch or dust bag with the chain protected. For light surface marks, use only a soft cloth and avoid harsh cleaners.
Q: Is this size practical for everyday use? A: Yes, the medium size is a versatile day-to-evening option. It is roomy enough for essentials while still looking refined for lunches, dinners, events and everyday city wear, but it is not designed for larger items such as a tablet, water bottle or laptop.
Q: Does an authenticity card guarantee authenticity on its own? A: An authenticity card is a positive detail, but it should not be treated as the only proof on its own. Pre-owned Chanel bags are best assessed through a combination of serial details, materials, stitching, hardware, overall craftsmanship and the seller’s authentication process.
