Show more product information
Q: What typically fits inside the Chanel 19 Medium?
A: With approximate measurements of 30 × 21 × 8 cm, it comfortably holds a smartphone, long wallet, keys, a small cosmetics pouch, sunglasses case and other daily essentials. It can also take a slim tablet in the main compartment. To preserve the shape, avoid overfilling and use the internal zip pocket for smaller items.
Q: Can I wear it crossbody and on the shoulder?
A: Yes. The bag features a long leather‑interlaced chain for shoulder or crossbody wear and a shorter chain top handle for hand or crook‑of‑arm carry. On this piece, the strap drop is about 45 cm and the handle drop about 7 cm, which suits most heights for an easy crossbody or shoulder fit.
Q: Is the strap adjustable?
A: The long strap is fixed length and not adjustable. Many owners shorten the drop for shoulder carry by doubling the chain under the flap or by wearing it on the shorter top handle.
Q: How does this Medium compare to other Chanel 19 sizes?
A: Size naming varies by retailer. The Chanel 19 family sits roughly as: Small around 26 × 16 × 9 cm; this Medium (also called Medium/Large in some guides) around 30 × 20 × 10 cm; and Maxi around 36 × 25 × 11 cm. Always rely on the measurements on this page for this specific piece.
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.

A: The long strap is fixed length and not adjustable. Many owners shorten the drop for shoulder carry by doubling the chain under the flap or by wearing it on the shorter top handle.
Q: Is the chain heavy or uncomfortable?
A: The Chanel 19’s mixed‑metal chain has a pleasantly substantial feel. Most find it comfortable for day‑to‑day wear, especially crossbody, though it will feel weightier than slimmer chains due to the chunky links and metal top handle.
Q: How does this Medium compare to other Chanel 19 sizes?
A: Size naming varies by retailer. The Chanel 19 family sits roughly as: Small around 26 × 16 × 9 cm; this Medium (also called Medium/Large in some guides) around 30 × 20 × 10 cm; and Maxi around 36 × 25 × 11 cm. Always rely on the measurements on this page for this specific piece.
Q: What is the hardware finish and how should I care for it?
A: The Chanel 19 is known for mixed metals—gold‑tone, silver‑tone and ruthenium—on the strap and CC turn‑lock. This versatile combination pairs well with different jewellery tones. Wipe hardware with a soft, dry cloth after wear and avoid contact with perfumes, lotions and abrasive surfaces.
Q: How do I care for the lambskin leather?
A: Chanel recommends gentle care for lambskin. Keep the bag away from prolonged light and humidity, wipe marks with a soft cloth using light circular motions, and never use harsh cleaners. Store it upright in a breathable dust bag with the chain wrapped to prevent imprints, and avoid overfilling to maintain its softly structured silhouette.
Q: Is the Chanel 19 still part of Chanel’s current collection?
A: Yes, the Chanel 19 remains an emblematic style produced in seasonal colours and materials, frequently offered in black lambskin with mixed‑metal hardware.
Q: What items are included with this piece?
A: Everything included is listed under the product information section. For this item, the serial number tag is included. If a dust bag, care booklet or authenticity card is not listed there, it is not included—please contact us if you would like clarification.
Q: How is authenticity verified?
A: Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes multi‑point authentication by our in‑house experts, including checks of materials, stitching, stamping, hardware and serial identifiers. We stand behind the authenticity of all items and are happy to provide additional details on request.
