Q: What typically fits inside this Chanel Classic Medium Double Flap Bag?
A: With measurements of approximately 28 x 19 x 8 cm, it is best suited to day-to-evening essentials such as a phone, slim wallet or card holder, keys, lipstick, sunglasses in a soft case and a few small personal items. Because this is a structured double-flap style, it is ideal for essentials rather than bulky items.

Q: Can this bag be worn on the shoulder or crossbody?
A: This bag has a leather-and-chain interwoven strap listed as adjustable, so it can be styled for a shorter or longer shoulder carry depending on your preference. For many people, a medium double flap works best on the shoulder; crossbody fit can vary depending on height and where you like the bag to sit, so comparing the listed strap drop with a favourite bag you already own is the best guide.

Q: What does double flap mean?
A: A double flap design has both the main outer flap and an additional inner flap. Many collectors love this construction because it helps the bag keep its shape, adds a little extra security and gives the style its iconic structured Chanel look.

Q: What condition is this bag in?
A: This piece is listed in good condition. The exterior shows scuffing on the corners, the interior has light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. As a vintage bag, gentle signs of wear are to be expected and form part of its character.

Q: What is included with this bag?
A: No additional items are included with this piece. If a box, dust bag, authenticity card or other extras are not listed in the product information, they are not included with the sale.

Q: Is it unusual that no serial number was found?
A: Not necessarily. On vintage Chanel bags, interior serial stickers can wear away, become damaged or detach over time. A missing serial number does not automatically mean a bag is not authentic, as authentication should also consider the materials, stitching, hardware, construction and overall craftsmanship.

Q: How should I care for this vintage quilted leather bag?
A: Avoid overfilling it, and keep it away from prolonged sunlight, moisture, perfume and harsh chemicals. If it gets wet, pat it dry gently with a soft absorbent cloth rather than rubbing. When not in use, store it upright in a pouch and avoid pressure on the corners or chain so it keeps its shape as well as possible.

Q: Is the Medium Double Flap a practical everyday size?
A: Yes, this size is often considered one of the most versatile Chanel flap formats because it balances elegance with useful storage. It works especially well for lunches, dinners, events and daily essentials, though it is not intended for larger items such as tablets, water bottles or bulky purses.

Q: What are the key design details of this specific bag?
A: This piece features burgundy quilted leather, gold-tone hardware, a leather-and-chain shoulder strap, black leather lining with internal pockets and the iconic CC turn-lock closure. The country-of-origin label states France, and the bag is listed as a vintage Chanel piece.
