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 Satin Diamond CC Flap Bag? A: With measurements of approximately 20 x 13.5 x 5 cm, this is a compact vintage flap bag that is best suited to essentials such as a phone, cardholder, keys, lipstick and a few small extras. It is ideal for day-to-evening use rather than for bulkier items such as a long wallet, tablet or water bottle.
Q: Is this bag best worn on the shoulder or crossbody? A: The strap drop is approximately 48 cm. For most people, that makes it most comfortable as a shoulder bag. Depending on height and torso length, it may sit as a shorter crossbody, but it is not designed as a roomy everyday crossbody style.
Q: What does “Full Flap” mean on this Chanel bag? A: “Full Flap” generally refers to a vintage single-flap construction with a full front flap and CC turn-lock closure. Many collectors like this style because it offers a lighter feel and easier access than later double-flap versions while still giving the classic Chanel look.
Q: What materials are used on this bag? A: This piece is crafted in black diamond-quilted satin with leather trim, finished with gold-tone hardware and a red leather lining. Satin gives the bag an elegant sheen and a dressier look, but it is generally more delicate than grained leather and benefits from careful handling.
Q: How should I care for vintage Chanel satin? A: Satin should be protected from rain, humidity, rough surfaces and colour transfer. If the bag gets damp, gently blot it with a soft, non-pilling cloth rather than rubbing. For storage, keep it upright, lightly filled to help maintain shape, and wrap the chain in tissue so the hardware does not press into the fabric or leather.
Q: What does the serial number 1308753 indicate? A: This bag has a 7-digit Chanel serial number, which places it in Chanel’s vintage serial-sticker era. A 1-series number is generally associated with production around 1989 to 1991. As with all Chanel bags, the serial number is an important dating and authenticity detail, but it should always be considered alongside materials, construction and hardware.
Q: How is this bag authenticated? A: Pre-owned Chanel bags are typically authenticated through a combination of checks, including the serial details, stitching and quilting, logo and stamp details, lining, hardware and overall period consistency. This item is sold as authenticated by A Retro Tale and has its serial number listed in the product information.
Q: What is included with this item? A: The included product information listed for this piece is the serial number. If an authenticity card, box, dust bag or other extras are not stated on the product page, they should be considered not included unless confirmed separately.
Q: What is the condition of this bag? A: This bag is listed in good vintage condition. The exterior shows scuffing and wear to the corners, edges and leather strap, the interior has light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. It presents as a well-kept vintage piece with expected signs of age and wear.
Q: Where was this bag made? A: The country-of-origin label for this piece states Italy.
