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 fits inside the Chanel Classic Caviar Medium Double Flap Bag? A: The medium size is ideal for daily essentials such as a phone, slim wallet or card holder, keys, lipstick and sunglasses. With measurements of 25 x 15.5 x 6.5 cm, it is roomy for the essentials, but the double flap construction means it carries a little less than a single-flap bag of similar width.
Q: Can this bag be worn on the shoulder or crossbody? A: Yes, it can be worn with the chain doubled for a shorter shoulder carry or single for a longer drop. On this item, the strap drop is approximately 24 cm doubled and 42 cm single. For most people, the medium double flap works best as a shoulder bag rather than a true crossbody style.
Q: What does Double Flap mean? A: Double Flap refers to the classic Chanel construction with an outer flap and a second inner flap. Buyers often like this design because it adds structure, creates extra organisation and helps keep the bag’s iconic shape, although it also slightly reduces interior space.
Q: Why is Caviar leather so popular? A: Caviar leather is Chanel’s grained calfskin, known for its structured feel and better resistance to scratches and daily wear than smoother leathers. It is a popular choice for pre-loved bags because it tends to be practical, durable and good at maintaining its shape over time.
Q: Is the Medium Classic Flap a good everyday size? A: For many buyers, yes. The medium is widely considered one of the most versatile Chanel flap sizes because it balances elegance with practicality and transitions easily from daytime to evening. It suits those who carry essentials rather than bulky items.
Q: What product information is included with this item? A: This bag includes its serial number under the product information. The serial number listed for this piece is 21595169. If an item such as a box, dust bag or authenticity card is not listed on the product page, it should not be assumed to be included.
Q: What is the condition of this specific bag? A: This pre-loved piece is listed in Very Good condition. The exterior and interior both show light traces of use, while the silver-tone hardware remains shiny with light scratches. This suggests a well-kept bag with gentle signs of previous wear rather than heavy use.
Q: How should I care for a pre-loved Chanel Caviar bag? A: Avoid overfilling the bag, keep it away from prolonged sunlight, humidity and friction, and store it upright with the chain protected when not in use. A soft dry cloth is best for light surface cleaning. Careful storage will help preserve the shape and finish over time.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: At A Retro Tale, items are reviewed by in-house experts using checks such as materials, stitching, hardware, stamps and serial details. This bag’s serial number is also listed in the product information for added reference.
