The open interior makes it easy to access larger items quickly, while the internal pocket is useful for smaller necessities.
Q: Can this bag be carried comfortably on the shoulder? A: Yes. It has dual interwoven chain and fabric shoulder straps with an approximate strap drop of 28 cm, which is generally comfortable for shoulder wear and everyday use.
Q: Is this a vintage Chanel bag? A: Yes, this is a vintage Chanel tote. Comparable examples of the CC Lips Tote are typically attributed to the mid-1990s Karl Lagerfeld era, and the 7-digit serial format is consistent with vintage Chanel production from that period.
Q: What makes the design of this tote distinctive? A: This bag stands out for its quilted canvas body with the playful CC lips print, white leather trim and gold-tone hardware. It combines Chanel’s classic quilted look with a more graphic, statement-making vintage design.
Q: Is an open-top tote practical for everyday use? A: Yes, especially if you like easy access and a roomy silhouette. Open-top Chanel totes are popular for day use, shopping and casual work carry, though they are less secure than zipped or flap styles. Many buyers prefer to keep valuables in the internal pocket or in a separate pouch inside the bag.
Q: What condition is this bag in? A: This item is listed in good condition overall. There is visible discolouration and marks on the exterior, light traces of use inside, and tarnishing with scratches to the hardware. These signs are typical for a vintage piece that has been previously loved and used.
Q: What product information is included with this bag? A: This bag comes with a serial number and an authenticity card. For vintage Chanel pieces, these details are useful supporting elements for dating and authentication alongside the bag’s materials, construction and hardware details.
Q: How should I care for this Chanel tote? A: To help preserve the canvas, white leather trim and hardware, wipe it gently with a soft cloth and avoid harsh cleaning products, heavy rubbing, prolonged sunlight and moisture. It is best stored upright, lightly stuffed, and away from dark fabrics that may transfer colour. Avoid overfilling it, as this can affect the shape over time.
