Q: How should I care for metallic Chanel leather?
A: Store it in a cool, dry place away from strong sunlight and humidity, avoid overfilling, and wipe it gently with a soft cloth. Metallic finishes are delicate and may show wear at edges or corners over time, so it is best handled with extra care.

A: It can certainly be used day to day for small essentials, but because it is a vintage metallic leather piece, many collectors prefer to use it for lighter daily carry or evening occasions to help preserve the finish.

Q: Is this an authentic Chanel piece?
A: This item includes a Chanel serial number tag, and as with all pieces sold by A Retro Tale, it has been reviewed for authenticity before listing. With vintage Chanel, authenticity is assessed through the overall construction, materials, hardware, logo details and serial information rather than by one feature alone.
