Q: What fits inside this Chanel East West Flap Bag? A: This is a compact shoulder bag with an elongated shape, so it is best for essentials rather than bulkier daily items. It will typically suit a phone, card holder or slim wallet, keys, lipstick and a few small extras. Please use the listed measurements of 24 x 13 x 4 cm as the best guide to capacity.
Q: Is the Chanel East West Flap a discontinued model? A: Yes, the East West Flap is widely regarded as a discontinued Chanel style, which is one reason it remains popular on the pre-owned market. Its long, elegant proportions make it distinct from the more common Classic Flap sizes.
Q: How does this East West Flap compare with a classic Medium Flap? A: The East West Flap is wider-looking and noticeably slimmer in height, so it gives a more elongated silhouette. Buyers often like it for its elegant shape and lighter feel, while a Medium Classic Flap is usually the better choice if you need more all-day carrying capacity.
Q: Can this bag be worn on the shoulder? A: Yes. The listed strap drop is 22/41 cm, so it is designed to be worn on the shoulder. Fit can vary depending on your frame and styling preference, so we recommend comparing the strap drop with a bag you already use comfortably.
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.

Q: Is the Chanel East West Flap considered an everyday bag or more of an occasion bag? A: Most buyers use this style as a day-to-evening or occasion bag. Its slim East West silhouette gives it a polished look, while the single-flap format still makes it practical for essentials.
Q: Is the Chanel East West Flap a discontinued model? A: Yes, the East West Flap is widely regarded as a discontinued Chanel style, which is one reason it remains popular on the pre-owned market. Its long, elegant proportions make it distinct from the more common Classic Flap sizes.

Q: What does the serial number era tell me about this bag? A: The serial number provided in the product information places this bag in the 2008 to 2009 period. For Chanel bags from this era, the serial sticker is an important authenticity detail, but it should always be considered together with materials, construction, hardware and overall craftsmanship.
Q: What condition is this bag in? A: This bag is rated in good condition. The exterior shows light traces of use, including scratches and light cracking in the leather. The interior has light signs of wear, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. We recommend reviewing all photos carefully for the best understanding of its current condition.
Q: How should I care for a white vintage Chanel leather bag? A: White leather benefits from gentle handling and careful storage. Avoid overfilling the bag, prolonged sunlight, humidity, dark-coloured fabrics that may cause colour transfer, and harsh cleaning products. When not in use, store it in a dust bag and keep it lightly stuffed to help maintain its shape. For anything beyond light surface care, specialist leather advice is recommended.
Q: What is included with this item? A: The included items are shown in the product information. If any particular inclusion is important to you, we recommend checking the product information carefully before purchase.
