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 Tassel Double Flap Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 22 x 19 x 4 cm, this is a compact vintage bag best suited to daily essentials. It should comfortably hold a mobile phone, cardholder or slim wallet, keys, lipstick and a few small items. Because the profile is quite slim, bulkier pieces such as a large purse, water bottle or hard sunglasses case may be a tight fit.
Q: Will this bag fit a modern smartphone? A: Yes, most modern smartphones should fit comfortably inside. The bag is better suited to carrying a phone and other small essentials rather than larger everyday items.
Q: Can this bag be worn crossbody? A: The listed strap measurement is 44 cm. For many people, that makes it best suited to shoulder wear, though it may sit short crossbody on smaller frames. If crossbody wear is important to you, it is a good idea to compare the strap measurement with a bag you already own.
Q: How is the bag organised inside? A: This bag features a double magnetic flap closure, black leather lining and one internal zip pocket. It has a neat vintage layout that helps keep smaller essentials organised without adding bulk.
Q: What does the serial number 1311519 suggest about the age of the bag? A: Chanel 7-digit serial numbers beginning with 1 are generally associated with the 1989 to 1991 production period. That means this piece is from an early vintage Chanel era.
Q: What product information is included with this bag? A: This piece includes the serial sticker and authenticity card. Everything included with the sale is listed in the product information on this page.
Q: How is authenticity typically assessed for a vintage Chanel bag? A: For vintage Chanel pieces, buyers usually look for a matching serial sticker and authenticity card alongside the overall craftsmanship, including the leather, quilting, lining, hardware and stamps. This bag includes both a serial sticker and authenticity card, which are important vintage details.
Q: What is the condition of this bag? A: The exterior and interior are both noted as Very Good with light traces of use. The hardware is described as shiny with light scratches, which is consistent with careful vintage wear.
Q: How should I care for vintage quilted leather and hardware? A: Store the bag upright, lightly stuffed and away from direct sunlight, artificial light, heat and moisture. Wipe it gently with a soft cloth, avoid overfilling it, and protect the chain when storing to help preserve the leather. If the bag gets wet, dry it carefully with an absorbent, non-pilling cloth.
