Delivery & Returns
Q: What typically fits inside the Chanel Small Rock & Chain Accordion Flap Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 21 x 18 x 10 cm, this bag is best for daily essentials such as a phone, a compact purse or card holder, keys, sunglasses, lipstick and other small items. It is a compact style, so larger items like a tablet or bulky long wallet may be a tight fit.
Q: Can this bag be worn on the shoulder or crossbody? A: The listed strap drop is approximately 20/40 cm, which usually means a shorter doubled carry and a longer single-chain carry. For most people, it is best suited to shoulder wear rather than a true crossbody fit, although this can vary depending on height and frame.
Q: What does the accordion design mean? A: The accordion construction refers to the gusseted sides, which expand slightly to give the bag a bit more flexibility and help keep smaller essentials organised. It also gives the silhouette a soft, pleated look, which is part of this model’s appeal.
Q: Is patent leather a practical choice for everyday use? A: Patent leather is loved for its glossy finish and can be quite durable, but it does need mindful care. It may show fingerprints, light surface scratches and colour transfer more easily than some matte leathers, especially if rubbed against dark denim or printed materials.
Q: How should I care for and store this bag? A: Wipe it gently with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth and avoid ordinary leather creams, which are not usually recommended for patent finishes. Store it loosely stuffed in a dust bag, away from direct sunlight, heat, humidity and prolonged contact with dark fabrics or plastics to help preserve the shine and shape.
Q: What does the serial number 12556304 suggest? A: Chanel 12-series serial numbers are generally associated with production around 2008 to 2009. Serial numbers are useful for dating vintage Chanel pieces, but they should always be considered alongside the bag’s materials, construction and hardware details when assessing authenticity.
Q: What is included with this item? A: The product information lists a serial number. If an authenticity card, box, dust bag or any other extras are not listed in the product information, they should not be assumed to be included.
Q: What is the condition of this bag? A: This bag is listed in very good condition. The exterior shows minor wear on the corners, the interior has light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches, which is consistent with careful vintage wear.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully reviewed for authenticity using detailed checks of materials, construction, hardware, stamps and serial details. This helps ensure that each vintage Chanel piece has been professionally vetted before it is offered for sale.
