Q: What typically fits inside this Chanel Velour Camellia Velvet Bag?
A: With approximate dimensions of 40 x 22 x 15 cm, it is roomy enough for daily essentials such as a long wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses case, small cosmetics pouch and a compact tablet or notebook. Please use the measurements on this page as the best guide to capacity.

Q: Can this bag be worn on the shoulder?
A: This version features dual top handles with an approximate 6 cm handle drop and no shoulder strap listed, so it is best carried by hand or in the crook of the arm rather than on the shoulder.

Q: Does the bag have any interior organisation?
A: Yes. It has a black fabric lining with one internal zip pocket, which is useful for smaller essentials you want to keep secure and easy to find.

Q: What does the serial number tell me?
A: The 10xxxxxx serial range is consistent with Chanel bags produced around 2005-2006. As with all vintage Chanel pieces, the serial number helps support the production period, but authentication should also consider the materials, stitching, hardware and overall construction.

Q: Is an authenticity card or original packaging included?
A: This item is listed with the serial number only. If an authenticity card, box, dust bag or any other original item is not mentioned in the product information, it should be considered not included.

Q: What condition is this bag in?
A: The overall condition is listed as Very Good Condition. The exterior shows minor discolouration, the interior has light traces of use and a light vintage smell, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches.

Q: How delicate is velour or velvet compared with other Chanel materials?
A: Velvet and velour have a soft, luxurious finish but they are generally more delicate than grained leather or coated canvas. They can show pressure marks, rubbing and colour changes more easily, so they are best suited to careful use and thoughtful storage.

Q: How should I care for a vintage velvet bag like this?
A: Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and humidity, avoid overfilling, and keep it lightly stuffed to help maintain its shape. For surface dust, use a very soft dry cloth or soft brush with a gentle touch. Avoid harsh cleaners, soaking the fabric or rubbing the pile.

Q: Is the light vintage smell normal?
A: A light vintage smell can be normal in older bags that have been stored for long periods. It often improves with time, gentle airing and proper storage, but buyers who are especially sensitive to scent should keep it in mind.

Q: Why is the camellia motif special for Chanel?
A: The camellia is one of Chanel’s most recognisable house symbols, which makes Camellia pieces especially appealing to buyers who enjoy signature Chanel design details and vintage house motifs.
