Delivery & Returns
Q: What typically fits inside the Chanel Paris-Byzance Take Away Flap Bag? A: With measurements of approximately 30 x 22 x 7 cm, it is best suited to daily essentials such as a phone, compact wallet, keys, sunglasses, and a few small cosmetics. It is not ideal for bulkier items or a laptop.
Q: How can this bag be carried? A: This style features cut-out top handles and a chain-link shoulder strap, so it can be carried by hand or worn on the shoulder. The listed strap measurement is 31/54 cm, which is useful to check against your preferred fit.
Q: Is this bag a vintage Chanel piece? A: Yes. This is a vintage Chanel bag, and the serial number provided in the product data indicates 2011 production.
Q: What makes the Paris-Byzance model special? A: Paris-Byzance belongs to one of Chanel’s more distinctive seasonal design lines from around 2011 rather than a permanent classic range, so it appeals to buyers looking for a more unusual vintage Chanel style.
Q: What condition is this item in? A: The bag is listed in good condition with light traces of use. The exterior and interior both show light wear, and the hardware is shiny with light scratches.
Q: What is included with this bag? A: The only item listed in the product information is the serial number. If an authenticity card, box, dust bag, or other extras are not shown in the product information, they should not be assumed to be included.
Q: How should I care for the quilted leather and hardware? A: Avoid overfilling the bag and keep it away from prolonged sunlight, moisture, and rough surfaces. Store it upright, lightly stuffed, and make sure the chain does not press into the leather while stored. For routine care, use a soft dry cloth and avoid harsh cleaning products.
Q: Is black quilted leather practical for regular use? A: Yes, black is versatile and easy to style, but quilted leather can show scratches and surface wear over time, especially on a vintage piece. It works well for careful everyday use as well as evening wear.
Q: How do you authenticate a vintage Chanel bag like this? A: Authentication should never rely on one detail alone. Serial numbers, materials, stitching, hardware, construction, and overall consistency should all align, and this item has already been reviewed as an authentic pre-owned Chanel piece by A Retro Tale.
