Very Good Condition
This vintage Chanel Mini Rectangular Flap Bag in orange quilted patent leather offers a bold yet timeless statement.

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 Mini Rectangular Patent Flap Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 20 x 13 x 6 cm, this mini bag is best for essentials. It will typically fit a phone, keys, lipstick, a slim card holder, and a few small daily items. The internal pocket is useful for flatter pieces such as cards or receipts.
Q: What are the main design details of this bag? A: This piece features orange quilted patent leather, tonal hardware, an interwoven chain and leather shoulder strap, tonal leather lining, one internal pocket, and a turn-lock closure. It is also marked as a vintage Chanel bag made in France.
Q: Can this bag be worn on the shoulder or crossbody? A: The strap drop is approximately 44 cm. For most wearers, that makes it well suited to shoulder wear. It may also sit as a shorter crossbody on some frames, depending on height and preferred fit.
Q: What does the serial number 6513960 indicate? A: Chanel 7-digit serial numbers are generally associated with earlier vintage production, and a 6-series number like 6513960 is typically dated to around 2000-2002. It indicates the production period rather than an exact manufacturing date.
Q: What is included with this item? A: The product information lists the serial number as included. No authenticity card, box, dust bag, or other extras are listed, so these should not be assumed to be included unless confirmed separately.
Q: What condition is this bag in? A: The overall condition is listed as very good. The exterior shows minor wear on the corners and small marks, the interior has light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches.
Q: How should I care for vintage patent leather? A: Patent leather has a glossy finish but should still be handled with care. Avoid overfilling the bag, prolonged sunlight, moisture, and contact with dark fabrics such as denim, as colour transfer can occur. Store it lightly stuffed, upright if possible, and wipe gently with a soft dry cloth rather than using harsh cleaning products.
Q: Is patent leather a practical choice for regular use? A: Yes, patent leather can be a great choice if you enjoy a polished, structured look, but it does require thoughtful handling. It can show marks, corner wear, and colour transfer more readily than some matte finishes, so it is best used with a little extra care.
