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: How big is the Chanel Caviar Mini 25 and how does it wear? A: The bag measures approximately 22 × 14 × 10 cm with an approximate strap drop of 32 cm as listed on this page. It is a compact bucket silhouette designed primarily for shoulder carry; the strap is not adjustable.
Q: What typically fits inside this Mini 25? A: Daily essentials such as a standard-size smartphone, cardholder or small wallet, keys, lip balm or lipstick, and compact sunglasses in a soft pouch. Larger phones (Plus/Max) may fit depending on orientation and case thickness; please compare with the Measurements provided.
Q: How secure is the drawstring closure? A: The main compartment cinches closed to keep contents in place. For items you reach for often, use the external front flap pocket with CC turn-lock. When travelling or in crowded areas, tighten the drawstring fully and keep valuables in a small zipped pouch inside.
Q: What is Chanel caviar leather and how durable is it? A: Caviar is a pebbled calfskin known for its textured grain and robust, scratch-resistant surface compared with smooth lambskin. It is still a premium leather and benefits from mindful care to preserve its finish.
Q: Any special care tips for a white caviar bag? A: Avoid prolonged contact with dark denim and dyed fabrics to minimise colour transfer. After use, gently wipe with a soft, dry, colourfast cloth, then store the bag loosely stuffed in a breathable dust bag away from direct sunlight and heat.
Q: Is this leather water-resistant? A: Caviar tolerates light, incidental contact better than smoother leathers, but it is not waterproof. If the bag gets wet, blot gently with a soft cloth and allow it to air dry naturally, away from heat sources.
Q: Does this piece have a serial sticker or a microchip? A: Chanel began transitioning from serial stickers and separate authenticity cards to an embedded microchip system in 2021. What is included with this item is listed in the product information section of this page.
Q: Where was this bag made? A: This item is marked made in Italy. Chanel produces handbags in both France and Italy depending on model and season.
Q: What comes with the bag? A: Everything included with this item is listed under the product information section on this page. If you need clarification, our team will be happy to help.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this item? A: Every piece is carefully inspected by our in-house experts using multi-point checks of materials, stitching, hardware, stamping, interior labels, and overall construction. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can share further details on request.
