Q: What typically fits inside this Chanel Lambskin Classic Medium Double Flap Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 25 x 17 x 7 cm, it is best suited to daily essentials such as a phone, compact purse, keys, lipstick, sunglasses and a few small extras. As this is a double-flap style, the interior feels a little more structured than an open shoulder bag, so bulkier items may be a tight fit. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for the exact dimensions.
Q: Can this bag be worn crossbody? A: Usually, this size is worn on the shoulder rather than as a true crossbody. The listed strap drop is approximately 23 cm doubled and 43 cm single, which works well for shoulder wear but may sit too short for a comfortable crossbody fit on most adults. Fit will vary depending on your height and frame.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.

The listed strap drop is approximately 23 cm doubled and 43 cm single, which works well for shoulder wear but may sit too short for a comfortable crossbody fit on most adults. Fit will vary depending on your height and frame.
Q: What does double flap mean? A: A double-flap Chanel has the classic outer flap plus an additional inner flap inside the bag. This gives the bag its iconic layered structure and added shape, but it also means the usable interior space is slightly reduced compared with more open designs.
Q: Is lambskin leather delicate? A: Yes. Lambskin is prized for its soft, smooth finish and luxurious feel, but it is more prone to light scratches, rubbing and corner wear than more heavily grained leathers. This makes it a beautiful choice for careful everyday use or occasion wear, especially if handled with a little extra care.
Q: How should I care for and store this bag? A: Avoid overfilling it, prolonged sunlight, humidity and contact with water, cosmetics or rough fabrics. Gently wipe it with a soft dry cloth, keep the chains wrapped when stored, and store the bag upright with light tissue stuffing to help maintain its shape. For deeper cleaning or repairs, specialist leather care is recommended.
Q: What does the serial number tell me? A: The listed serial number is a 4-series code, which aligns with production in 1996-1997. On vintage Chanel bags, the serial sticker is one of the key details used alongside materials, hardware, stamps and overall construction when assessing age and authenticity.
Q: What is included with this item? A: The product information lists a serial number. If an authenticity card, box, dust bag or 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: It is listed in good condition. The exterior shows a loose thread and minor marks, the interior has light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. We recommend reviewing all photos carefully for the best understanding of this vintage item's current state.
Q: How is this bag authenticated? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully reviewed by in-house experts who assess details such as leather, stitching, hardware, logo features and serial details. The serial number is one useful indicator, but authenticity is always judged as part of the overall construction and finish.
