Delivery & Returns
Q: What typically fits inside this Chanel Grand Shopping Tote? A: With measurements of approximately 30 x 28 x 10 cm, this bag is well suited to daily essentials such as a long wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses, a cosmetics pouch and a small notebook or tablet. The three-compartment interior also helps keep items organised. Please use the Measurements on this page as the best guide to capacity.
Q: Can this bag be worn comfortably on the shoulder? A: Yes. This style has dual chain-link and leather shoulder straps with an approximate strap drop of 25 cm, so it is designed for shoulder carry. Fit can vary slightly depending on your frame and what you pack inside.
Q: Will it fit a laptop or work documents? A: It is better suited to light daily essentials, a tablet and smaller documents than to a larger laptop. Because this example measures 30 cm across and has a compartmented interior, most 13-inch laptops are likely to be a tight fit or impractical for regular use. For best results, compare your device measurements with the bag dimensions shown on this page.
Q: Is caviar leather a good choice for everyday use? A: Yes. Caviar leather is known for its textured finish and everyday durability, which makes it a popular choice for vintage Chanel totes. It is generally more forgiving of light scratches than smoother leathers, though it should still be stored carefully and kept away from moisture, oils and prolonged heat.
Q: How is the interior organised? A: This bag features a tonal fabric lining with three compartments, internal pockets and an exterior slip pocket. That layout makes it practical for separating essentials such as your phone, wallet and small personal items.
Q: What is the condition of this specific bag? A: The overall condition is Very Good. The exterior shows light traces of use with minor marks and some discolouration on the base. The interior is also Very Good with light traces of use, and the inside pocket is missing its zipper pull. The hardware remains shiny with light scratches and slight tarnishing.
Q: What does the serial number tell me about the bag? A: The serial number begins with 9 and is noted in the product information as dating this piece to 2004-2005. On vintage Chanel bags, the serial number is an important dating and authentication detail, but it does not identify the style on its own.
Q: What is included with this item? A: The product information lists the serial number. If an authenticity card, box, dust bag or any other item is not specifically listed in the product information, it should not be assumed to be included.
Q: How should I care for this vintage Chanel tote? A: Store it loosely stuffed to help maintain its shape, keep it in a breathable dust bag when not in use, and wipe it gently with a soft dry cloth. As this is a vintage leather bag, avoid overfilling it and keep it away from rain, direct sunlight, perfume and harsh cleaning products.
Q: How do you authenticate a vintage Chanel bag like this? A: A vintage Chanel bag should be checked across multiple details, including leather quality, quilting, stitching, hardware, branding and serial details. At A Retro Tale, every item is rigorously vetted by in-house experts before listing.
