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 Accordion Flap Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 35 x 20 x 10 cm, this bag is well suited to everyday essentials such as a phone, long wallet, keys, sunglasses, a small cosmetics pouch, and other daily items. It may also fit a small tablet, depending on its case and how you pack, but please refer to the measurements on this page for the best guide.
Q: Can this bag fit a laptop or A4 documents? A: No, not comfortably. Although the bag is fairly wide, its 20 cm height makes it better suited to personal essentials rather than most laptops or full-size A4 paperwork.
Q: Can it be worn on the shoulder or crossbody? A: This piece is designed primarily for shoulder wear. The dual interwoven chain and leather straps have an approximate drop of 25 cm, which is usually too short for comfortable crossbody use on most people.
Q: How is the interior organised? A: The bag has a tonal fabric lining with one internal zip pocket, offering space for your essentials while helping keep smaller items secure and easy to find.
Q: What condition is this vintage bag in? A: The overall condition is listed as good. The exterior shows visible wear on the corners and creasing to the leather, the interior has light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. As a vintage item, gentle signs of wear are normal and part of its character.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This item includes a dust bag and serial number. Everything included is listed in the product information section, so if another item is not mentioned there, it is not included with the bag.
Q: How should I care for the quilted leather and hardware? A: To help preserve the bag, avoid overfilling it, keep it away from prolonged sunlight, heat, and moisture, and wipe it gently with a soft dry cloth. When stored, keep it upright in its dust bag and lightly stuff the interior with tissue to help maintain its shape.
Q: Is this a good everyday Chanel bag? A: Yes, this large Accordion Flap style offers a practical everyday size with a classic Chanel look. It is a strong option if you want a vintage shoulder bag that feels roomier than a compact evening style while still looking polished.
