A different approach to the classic double flap bag, this vintage Chanel black quilted patent leather shoulder bag has two front flaps that crisscross and overlap each other, giving more visual texture to the bag. A gold chain interwoven with patent leather and a leather tassel with ‘CC’ pendant are the only adornments that this bag needs. The two interior compartments have a snap closures and is accompanied by the original box, dustbag, sticker and authenticity card. The bag is in excellent condition, with only a few minor scuffs to the piping and the patent leather.

Chanel

Couturier Gabrielle Bonheur “Coco” Chanel established her eponymous atelier around 1910 and conceived an innovative fashion aesthetic that ascended the then passé silhouettes of corsets by liberating the female body with sporty leisure outfits made of jersey. Marked by understated elegance and well–designed simplicity, Chanel created a legacy of iconic pieces like her signature fragrance, quilted bag, tweed suit, and little black dress which are still admired today.
