Very Good Condition
This vintage Chanel Classic Mini Full Flap Bag in pink quilted leather with gold-tone hardware brings a playful yet timeless touch to day-to-evening dressing. In very good condition, it features a single chain and leather interwoven shoulder strap, tonal leather lining with two internal pockets, and a CC turn-lock closure, ideal for brunches, parties, or special occasions.
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 typically fits inside the Chanel Classic Mini Full Flap Bag? A: With approximate dimensions of 19 x 12 x 7 cm, this mini bag is best suited to essentials such as a phone, card holder, keys, lipstick, and a few small personal items. It is ideal for light day or evening use rather than bulky daily carry.
Q: Can this bag be worn crossbody? A: Yes, in many cases. The strap drop is approximately 54 cm, so it usually sits comfortably on the shoulder and can also work crossbody, especially on petite to average frames. On taller wearers it may sit slightly higher.
Q: What does Full Flap mean on this model? A: Full Flap refers to the classic Chanel flap silhouette with a front flap and CC turn-lock closure. In the mini size, it offers the iconic Chanel look in a lighter, more compact format than larger Classic Flap bags.
Q: How is the interior organised? A: This bag has a tonal leather lining with two internal pockets, which are useful for separating slimmer essentials such as cards, receipts, or small personal items. As with most mini bags, it works best when packed lightly.
Q: What does the serial number tell me about the age of this bag? A: The 1-series serial number places this bag in the vintage Chanel era, approximately 1989 to 1991. This is consistent with early Chanel serial numbering used on bags from that period.
Q: What product information is included with this bag? A: This item includes the serial number. If an authenticity card, box, dust bag, or any other item is not listed under the product information on this page, it is not included with this piece.
Q: What condition is this bag in? A: It is listed in very good vintage condition, with light traces of use externally and internally. The hardware remains shiny with light surface scratches consistent with age and careful wear.
Q: How should I care for vintage Chanel leather and hardware? A: Store the bag upright, lightly stuffed, and away from direct sunlight, heat, and humidity. Use a soft cloth for gentle surface care, avoid overfilling, and be mindful of friction against delicate fabrics to help preserve the shape and finish.
Q: How do you authenticate this Chanel bag? A: A Retro Tale authenticates each item through detailed checks of materials, stitching, hardware, branding, serial details, and overall construction. The serial number supports dating, but authenticity is always assessed as part of a wider expert review.
