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 Classic Mini Rectangular? A: As a compact evening-to-day bag (approx. 20 × 12 × 6 cm), it comfortably holds a smartphone, small card holder, keys and one or two small cosmetics. A long continental wallet will not fit; consider a compact wallet instead.
Q: Can I wear it crossbody? A: Yes. This piece has an approximate strap drop of 53 cm, allowing most people to wear it crossbody or on the shoulder. Compare this measurement with a bag you already own to gauge where it will sit on you.
Q: Is this a single flap or double flap? A: The Mini Rectangular is a single flap design with the classic CC turn-lock, making it lighter and easier to access than the larger double flap classics.
Q: What does the serial number 27805649 indicate? A: Chanel 27-series serial numbers correspond to around the 2020 production period. Chanel moved from serial stickers/cards to microchip plates from about 2021–2022, so a 27-series bag like this typically features a serial number tag.
Q: What items are included with this bag? A: Everything included is listed in the product information on this page. For this piece, a serial number tag is included. If an item such as a dust bag, box or authenticity card is not listed, it is not included.
Q: What is the condition of this item? A: Very Good overall. The exterior leather shows creasing and scuffed corners; the interior shows light trace of use; the gold-tone hardware is shiny with light surface scratches. Please refer to the photos for a close-up view.
Q: What materials and interior layout does it have? A: Black quilted leather with gold-tone hardware. Inside is black leather lining with one zipped pocket and one slip pocket, secured by a flap top and CC turn-lock closure.
Q: Is the strap adjustable or removable? A: The interwoven chain-and-leather strap is fixed and not adjustable or detachable. You can temporarily shorten the drop by looping part of the chain under the flap, taking care not to overfill the bag.
Q: How should I care for the leather and hardware? A: Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth after use. Avoid overloading to minimise creasing, and keep away from oils, cosmetics, and prolonged sunlight or moisture. Store loosely stuffed in a breathable dust bag to maintain its shape.
Q: Where was this bag made? A: The country-of-origin label indicates France.
