Very Good Condition
This Chanel Mini Tweed Single Flap Bag in black and white tweed with gold-tone hardware is in very good condition. Finished with an interwoven chain and leather strap with pearl and bead embellishments, black fabric lining and a CC turn-lock closure, it is an elegant choice for lunches, dinners or special events.
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 this Chanel Mini Tweed Single Flap Bag? A: With measurements of approximately 20 x 14 x 7 cm, this mini size is best for essentials such as a phone, card holder, keys, lipstick and a few small daily items. It is deceptively roomy for a compact bag, but bulkier items or a long continental wallet may be a tight fit. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for the clearest guide to capacity.
Q: Can this bag be worn crossbody? A: The strap drop is approximately 56 cm, so it can work as a shoulder bag and may also sit as a shorter crossbody on many frames. The exact fit will depend on your height and preferred styling.
Q: What does single flap mean on this Chanel bag? A: A single flap design has one main flap rather than the double interior flap seen on some larger Classic Flap styles. Many buyers like it because it gives easier access and makes the interior feel a little more open and practical for everyday essentials.
Q: Is tweed a delicate material? A: Yes, tweed is beautiful but more delicate than grained leather. It is best to avoid rain, heavy friction, perfume, oils and colour transfer from dark denim or other fabrics. Store the bag upright, lightly stuffed, and protect the chain and embellished details when not in use.
Q: How should I care for this bag’s tweed exterior and embellished strap? A: Use a soft, dry cloth or a very gentle fabric brush to remove surface dust. Do not overfill the bag, and avoid harsh cleaning products. If the tweed gets wet, blot it carefully with a non-pilling absorbent cloth and let it dry naturally. For marks or deeper cleaning, professional care is the safest option.
Q: Is gold-tone hardware normal for a Chanel mini flap? A: Yes. Chanel mini flap bags appear with different hardware finishes depending on the season and style. This piece features gold-tone hardware, which pairs especially well with the black and white tweed and the pearl and bead embellishments on the strap.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This item includes a serial number tag. No authenticity card or box are listed in the product information. If you would like to confirm exactly what is included before purchase, the product information on this page is the best reference.
Q: How do you authenticate a pre-owned Chanel bag like this one? A: Authentication should never rely on one detail alone. Experts assess the serial element together with materials, construction, stitching, hardware, stamps and overall finish. At A Retro Tale, all items are reviewed for authenticity before being offered for sale.
Q: What is the condition of this bag? A: The overall condition is listed as Very Good. The exterior and interior both show light traces of use, while the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. This means the bag presents very well while still showing gentle signs of prior wear, which is normal for a vintage or second-hand Chanel piece.
Q: Is this a good day-to-evening bag? A: Yes. A Chanel mini flap is often chosen for its compact, polished shape and hands-free wear. This particular tweed version has a dressier feel thanks to the pearl and bead embellished strap, making it especially well suited to lunches, events, dinners and light daytime use.
