Delivery & Returns
Q: What typically fits inside the Chanel Patent East West Chocolate Bar Flap Bag? A: With its slim East West proportions and measurements of 27 × 14 × 4 cm, it is best for essentials such as a smartphone, a card holder or slim wallet, keys, lipstick and a few small daily items. Bulkier pieces will be a tight fit.
Q: Can this bag be worn on the shoulder or crossbody? A: It is designed primarily as a shoulder bag. The chain and leather strap has a 31 cm drop, which usually sits neatly on the shoulder, but it is not a typical crossbody length for most people.
Q: Does the interior have pockets? A: Yes. The bag is lined in pink leather and has two internal slip pockets for organising smaller essentials.
Q: What does East West mean, and when is this style best used? A: East West refers to the long, horizontal silhouette. It is a sleek day-to-evening shape that works especially well when you only need the essentials for lunches, events, dinners or evenings out.
Q: What does Chocolate Bar mean on this Chanel bag? A: Chocolate Bar refers to the distinctive square quilting pattern, which gives the bag a graphic, structured look often associated with Chanel pieces from the early 2000s.
Q: How should patent leather be cared for? A: Patent leather should be handled gently. Wipe it with a soft cloth, avoid overfilling, and keep it away from prolonged sunlight, moisture and dark fabrics that may cause colour transfer. For storage, keep it upright in its dust bag so the shape stays neat.
Q: What does the serial number tell me? A: The serial number begins with 6 and the product information dates the bag to 2000 - 2002. On vintage Chanel pieces, the serial number is useful for dating and authentication, but it should always be considered alongside the bag’s overall construction and details.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: This bag has been checked and verified by A Retro Tale’s experts, who have over 10 years of experience in vintage and luxury bags. A well-established third-party authentication tool is also used as part of the verification process.
Q: What is included with this bag? A: According to the product information, it comes with a dust bag and serial number. If another item is not listed in the product information, it should not be assumed to be included.
Q: What is the condition of this bag? A: It is listed in good condition overall. The patent leather shows visible marks, the interior has light traces of use, and the hardware is shiny with light scratches.
