Q: What typically fits inside this Chanel CC Raffia Tote Bag?
A: With approximate measurements of 40 x 32 x 10 cm, it is roomy enough for daily essentials such as a long wallet, mobile phone, keys, sunglasses, a pouch, and a water bottle, with space left for light extras like a cardigan or book. Please use the measurements on this page as the best guide to capacity.

Q: Will it fit A4 papers or a laptop?
A: A4 documents should fit comfortably. A slim 13-inch laptop may also fit, but we recommend comparing your device with the listed measurements, especially if you use a padded sleeve or carry bulkier items at the same time.

Q: Can this tote be carried on the shoulder?
A: Yes, many customers should find the dual leather handles comfortable for shoulder carry, especially over lighter clothing. The listed strap drop is approximately 18 cm, so if you plan to wear it over heavier layers, it is worth comparing that drop with a bag you already own.

Q: Is raffia a durable choice for everyday use?
A: Raffia is a lovely warm-weather material and works well for regular daytime use, but it is generally more delicate than full leather. This bag is best enjoyed with mindful use rather than very heavy loading, rough surfaces, or wet weather.

Q: How should I care for the raffia and leather trim?
A: Keep the bag away from prolonged moisture, direct sunlight, and overfilling. For light marks, gently dab the raffia with a soft, barely damp cloth rather than rubbing, and wipe the leather trim carefully with a soft dry cloth. Store it upright in a breathable dust bag or pouch, lightly stuffed to help maintain its shape.

Q: What does the serial number 5981074 indicate?
A: Chanel 5-series serial numbers are generally associated with the late 1990s, approximately 1997 to 1999. A serial number helps support the production period, but it should always be considered alongside materials, construction, hardware, and overall craftsmanship when assessing authenticity.

Q: What product information is included with this item?
A: According to the product information, this bag is delivered with the serial number. If an authenticity card, box, or dust bag is not listed in the product information, it should not be assumed to be included.

Q: What is the condition of this bag?
A: It is listed in very good vintage condition. The exterior shows light traces of use with some marks on the leather trim, the interior shows light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. As with most vintage pieces, small signs of age are part of its character.

Q: Is the interior practical?
A: Yes, the bag is lined in brown fabric and includes one internal zipped pocket, which is useful for keeping smaller valuables separate from the main compartment.

Q: How do you authenticate this Chanel bag?
A: A Retro Tale checks Chanel bags using expert review of materials, construction, hardware, stamps, and serial details. The serial number is one helpful part of that process, but it is never relied on in isolation.
