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 size is this Chanel Business Affinity and why do the measurements seem roomy for a small? A: Chanel Business Affinity sizing has varied between seasons, and collectors often note that one season’s small can measure closer to another season’s medium. For this item, the best guide is the listed measurements: approximately 27 x 20 x 10 cm, with a 7 cm handle drop and a 60 cm strap drop.
Q: What fits inside this bag? A: With its structured silhouette and 27 x 20 x 10 cm size, it should comfortably hold daily essentials such as a smartphone, a compact or medium wallet, keys, sunglasses, lipstick, and a small charger or notebook. It is not designed for a laptop or A4 documents, so please use the Measurements on this page as your final size guide.
Q: Can this bag be worn on the shoulder or crossbody? A: Yes. This design offers a top handle for hand carry and a leather-threaded chain strap for shoulder wear. With an approximate 60 cm strap drop, many people will also find it wearable crossbody, although the fit will depend on your height and where you prefer the bag to sit.
Q: Is caviar leather a practical choice for everyday use? A: Yes. Chanel caviar leather is known for its grained texture, structured feel, and better resistance to scratches and day-to-day wear than smoother leathers. That makes it a popular choice if you want a bag that feels polished but relatively easy to live with.
Q: Is this bag organised inside? A: Yes. This item has a red leather lining with internal pockets, which helps keep smaller essentials neatly separated. The structured Business Affinity design is especially loved for feeling more organised than many compact flap bags.
Q: What product information is included with this item? A: This bag comes with an authenticity card and serial number, as listed in the product information. If another item such as a box or dust bag is not listed there, it should not be assumed to be included.
Q: What does the serial number 29160247 indicate? A: Chanel serials in the 29 series are generally associated with bags produced around 2019, which is consistent with this style era. As with all Chanel pieces, the serial number is only one part of authentication and should be considered alongside materials, construction, hardware, and overall craftsmanship.
Q: What condition is this bag in? A: It is listed in very good second-hand condition. The exterior shows minor wear on the corners, the interior has light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches.
Q: How should I care for this red caviar leather bag? A: Gently wipe it with a soft, dry microfiber cloth after use and store it stuffed and upright in a breathable dust bag when not in use. Try to avoid water, perfume, oils, rough surfaces, and prolonged direct sunlight or heat, and take extra care with darker clothing to reduce the risk of colour transfer.
