Perfect for brunch dates, gallery visits or evening cocktails, this vintage Chanel CC Quilted bag in beige lambskin with gold-tone hardware lends understated elegance. The CC turn-lock secures essentials, with an interior zipped pocket and exterior slip pocket, plus a single flat shoulder strap for effortless day-to-night wear.
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 in this medium CC Quilted bag? A: With approximate measurements of 25 × 21 × 9 cm, it comfortably carries everyday essentials such as a smartphone, small wallet, keys, sunglasses, and a few cosmetics. A slim A5 diary or small tablet may fit snugly depending on case thickness. Capacity varies with how you pack—please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact dimensions.
Q: Can this be worn crossbody? A: This piece has a single flat shoulder strap with an approximate 21 cm drop, designed for shoulder carry. It is not intended to be worn crossbody for most heights.
Q: What does the 7‑digit serial number starting with 5 (e.g., 5257035) indicate? A: A 7‑digit Chanel serial beginning with 5 generally dates the bag to the late 1990s (around 1997–1999). Serial numbers help date a piece but do not authenticate it on their own; overall construction, materials, stamps and hardware must also be assessed.
Q: Does this item come with an authenticity card or dust bag? A: Everything included is listed under product information. For this piece, product information notes a serial number tag; no separate authenticity card, box, or dust bag is listed unless stated.
Q: Is the hardware real gold? A: The hardware on this bag is described as gold‑tone. Many vintage Chanel bags made before around 2008 featured 24‑karat gold‑plated hardware, but plating can vary by model and year. We do not guarantee plating on this specific item—please rely on the product photos and description.
Q: How should I care for beige lambskin leather day to day? A: Avoid overfilling to preserve the silhouette; keep the bag away from prolonged light and humidity; and minimise contact between light leather and dark fabrics to reduce colour transfer. For light surface marks on lambskin, gently rub with a soft, clean cloth in small circles—avoid harsh products that may alter the finish.
Q: What’s the best way to store the bag when not in use? A: Empty and loosely stuff with acid‑free tissue, wrap the strap in tissue to prevent impressions, and store the bag upright in a breathable dust bag. Keep it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and avoid airtight plastic containers.
Q: How should I handle rain or accidental spills? A: Lambskin is not water‑resistant. If the bag gets wet, blot immediately with an absorbent, non‑pilling cloth and allow it to air dry away from heat. Do not use soaps, oils, or conditioners on the leather.
Q: Are micro‑scratches on the CC turn‑lock normal, and how can I minimise them? A: Fine hairline scratches on metal hardware are normal with wear. Close the turn‑lock gently, avoid contact with hard or abrasive surfaces, and occasionally buff with a clean, dry, non‑abrasive cloth. For deeper scratches, consult a professional restorer.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this bag? A: Every piece is vetted by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks: serial sticker and stamp analysis, logo and font consistency, quilting and stitching quality, leather and lining materials, and hardware construction. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can provide additional details on request.
