Very Good Condition
This Chanel Classic Mini Rectangular Single Flap Bag in black quilted leather with gold-tone hardware offers timeless sophistication. In very good condition, it features an interwoven chain and leather shoulder strap, black leather lining, internal zip and slip pockets, and a CC turn-lock closure. Ideal for dinners, events or polished everyday wear, it adds iconic Chanel style to any look.
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 Classic Mini Rectangular Single Flap Bag? A: With measurements of approximately 20 x 13 x 7 cm, this bag is best suited to essentials such as a mobile phone, card holder, keys, lipstick and other small daily items. A full-size wallet or bulkier pieces will usually feel too tight, so we recommend checking the measurements on this page against the items you carry most.
Q: Can this bag be worn crossbody? A: Yes. The interwoven chain and leather strap has an approximate drop of 60 cm, so it is designed to be worn hands-free. On many people it works well as a crossbody, while on others it may sit as a longer shoulder bag depending on height and styling preference.
Q: What does single flap mean on this Chanel Mini? A: Single flap means the bag has one main flap rather than the double-flap construction used on most larger Classic Flap sizes. This keeps the bag lighter, a little easier to access and very practical for carrying a compact set of essentials.
Q: How does the mini rectangular compare with the mini square? A: The mini rectangular has a longer, flatter silhouette, while the mini square is more compact and boxier. Many buyers prefer the rectangular version for its classic proportions and easier crossbody feel, and it is often considered the more practical mini shape for everyday use.
Q: Will a modern smartphone fit inside? A: In most cases, yes. The mini rectangular is one of the more practical Chanel mini sizes for fitting a mobile phone, but very large phones or bulky cases can reduce the remaining space. It is best paired with a slim card holder rather than a large purse.
Q: What product information is included with this item? A: This piece includes an authenticity card, dust bag and serial number. Everything included with the bag is shown in the product information on this page.
Q: When was this bag likely made? A: The serial number on this bag is 27592739. Chanel 27-series serial numbers are generally associated with 2019 production, which fits the era before Chanel moved to microchip identification.
Q: What is the condition of this specific bag? A: It is listed in Very Good Condition. The exterior shows small marks on the leather, the interior has light traces of use, and the hardware is shiny with light scratches.
Q: How should I care for this bag? A: Store it in its dust bag, lightly stuffed to help maintain its shape, and keep it away from prolonged sunlight, heat and moisture. Avoid overfilling, take care around rough surfaces, and wipe the leather and hardware gently with a soft dry cloth after use.
