Q: What typically fits inside the Chanel Classic Small Double Flap? A: The Small Classic Flap (approx. 23 cm wide) is a compact evening or light daily bag. It comfortably holds essentials such as a standard smartphone, a cardholder or small compact wallet, keys, lipstick and a slim compact mirror. While larger ‘Max’ or ‘Pro’ phones fit length-wise, the structured double-flap design limits the interior depth, so bulky items may not fit. Please refer to the Measurements (23 × 14 × 6.5 cm) for a tailored fit check.
Q: Can I wear the chain strap crossbody? A: The Classic Small Flap is designed primarily as a shoulder bag. The woven chain strap can be worn doubled (approx. 24 cm drop) for an elegant short shoulder look, or single (approx. 44 cm drop) for a longer shoulder carry. While some petite wearers might manage a very high crossbody fit, the strap is significantly shorter than on Chanel ‘Mini’ or dedicated crossbody styles.
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.

While larger ‘Max’ or ‘Pro’ phones fit length-wise, the structured double-flap design limits the interior depth, so bulky items may not fit. Please refer to the Measurements (23 × 14 × 6.5 cm) for a tailored fit check.
Q: Can I wear the chain strap crossbody? A: The Classic Small Flap is designed primarily as a shoulder bag. The woven chain strap can be worn doubled (approx. 24 cm drop) for an elegant short shoulder look, or single (approx. 44 cm drop) for a longer shoulder carry. While some petite wearers might manage a very high crossbody fit, the strap is significantly shorter than on Chanel ‘Mini’ or dedicated crossbody styles.
Q: What is the ‘Double Flap’ and how does it affect the bag? A: The Double Flap design features an exterior flap with the CC turn-lock and a second interior compartment flap that snaps shut. This construction provides excellent structure and security for your belongings. However, the extra layer of leather does slightly reduce the internal capacity compared to single-flap vintage models. This piece features the iconic ‘love letter’ zip pocket on the underside of the outer flap.
Q: What material is this bag made from and how do I care for it? A: This bag is crafted from black quilted lambskin leather, known for its incredibly soft, buttery texture and luxurious sheen. Lambskin is more delicate than Caviar leather and can show pressure marks or scratches. To care for it, avoid moisture and oils, and buff gently with a soft, dry chamois or microfibre cloth to maintain its lustre. When storing, ensure the chain does not rest heavily against the leather to prevent imprints.
Q: How do I date this specific vintage piece? A: Chanel bags can be dated by their internal serial code. This bag features a Series 13 serial number (13293378), which corresponds to a production period of approximately 2009–2010. The ‘Made in France’ stamp further confirms its origin.
Q: What is the condition of the hardware? A: This piece features gold-tone hardware, including the classic CC turn-lock and woven chain strap. As noted in the condition report, the hardware is shiny but shows light scratches consistent with a pre-loved vintage item. Authentic gold-tone hardware from this era is renowned for its warm, rich colour.
Q: What accessories are included with this bag? A: Original accessories are listed under the “Accessories” section on this page. For this specific item, the serial number tag is present inside the bag. Please check the listing details to see if a dust bag or authenticity card is included, as pre-loved items vary.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously vetted by our in-house experts using multi-point checks of materials, stitching, hardware, stamps, serial numbers and overall construction. We verify that all details, such as the 2009-2010 Series 13 code and checking standards, match Chanel’s production specifications for that era.
