Delivery & Returns
Q: What typically fits inside the Chanel Trapezoid Flap Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 24 × 17 × 8 cm, it’s ideal for daily essentials: a large smartphone, compact wallet or cardholder, keys, lipstick, slim sunglasses in a soft case and a small cosmetics pouch. An A5 diary/notebook can fit horizontally; compact tablets such as an iPad mini may fit on their side without a bulky case. A4 documents and 11-inch tablets generally do not fit comfortably. For a precise fit check, feel free to ask and we’ll test items for this exact piece.
Q: Is the strap adjustable, and can I wear it crossbody? A: The strap is a single chain‑and‑leather shoulder strap and is not adjustable. The listed strap drop for this bag is approximately 50 cm, which works well for shoulder carry and a high crossbody on some wearers (fit depends on height and layers). If you wish to shorten the drop, you can loop the chain once inside the bag—avoid tight knots to protect the leather.
Q: How secure is the closure and what pockets does it have? A: The bag features a turn‑lock flap for everyday security and an exterior slip pocket for quick‑access items like travel cards or receipts. The main compartment is lined in red leather; interior pocket configuration can vary by production era, so please refer to our listing photos for the exact layout of this piece.
Q: What materials and hardware does this piece have, and where is it made? A: This vintage model is crafted in black quilted leather with gold‑tone hardware and a red leather lining. The brand stamp indicates Made in France. Note that some earlier vintage Chanel bags were 24K gold‑plated, but the finish on this specific piece is described simply as gold‑tone in our listing.
Q: How should I care for the leather and hardware? A: Keep the bag away from moisture, oils and direct heat, and be mindful of colour transfer from dark denim. Wipe the leather with a soft, dry cloth and use a high‑quality neutral conditioner sparingly (test first on a discreet area). Store it upright, lightly stuffed, in a breathable dust bag with the chain tucked inside and padded with soft felt to prevent imprints and minimise hardware rubbing.
Q: What is the condition of this specific item? A: Overall, Good condition. The exterior leather shows rubbing on the corners and some general discolouration. The interior shows light traces of use. The gold‑tone hardware has scratches, some discolouration and has lost its original shine. Please review our detailed photos and condition notes for a close look.
Q: Is this style still in production? A: The Trapezoid Flap is considered a vintage/discontinued style. Availability today is primarily through trusted pre‑loved retailers like A Retro Tale rather than Chanel boutiques.
Q: Where are the brand markings and codes, and how is authenticity handled? A: Authentic Chanel bags feature interior brand stamps (e.g., “CHANEL” and country of origin). Vintage pieces typically include a hologram serial sticker and, depending on the era, may have originally come with an authenticity card. This listing includes the internal serial number tag as noted. Every item we sell is rigorously authenticated by our in‑house experts via multi‑point checks of materials, stitching, hardware, stamps and serial sticker format.
Q: What accessories are included with this bag? A: As listed under “Accessories,” this piece comes with a dust bag and the serial number tag. If an item such as a box or authenticity card is not listed there, it is not included—feel free to contact us for confirmation.
Q: Can Chanel or a specialist service this vintage bag? A: Chanel boutiques may offer repairs subject to assessment and parts availability; lead times and costs vary by region and by the bag’s age. Expert independent leather specialists can provide cleaning, colour touch‑ups and hardware care. We’re happy to advise on reputable options and how best to prepare for a repair assessment.
