Q: What size is this Chanel East West Flap Bag? A: This bag measures approximately 25 cm wide, 13 cm high and 4.5 cm deep, with a strap drop of around 30 cm. The East West silhouette is known for its long, slim shape, making it a compact yet elegant shoulder bag.
Q: What typically fits inside this bag? A: The East West Flap is best for daily essentials rather than bulky items. It will generally suit a phone, cardholder or small wallet, keys, lipstick, and a few small personal items. Because of its slim profile, it is not ideal for larger purses, water bottles, or tablets.
Q: Can this bag be worn on the shoulder? A: Yes. With a strap drop of approximately 30 cm, this bag is designed to sit comfortably on the shoulder. Its flat, elongated shape also makes it a popular option for day-to-evening use.

Q: Is this the single flap version? A: Yes. According to the product information, this is the Classic East West Single Flap Bag. Many collectors like this version for its lighter feel and easier access compared with bulkier double-flap styles.
Q: Can this bag be worn on the shoulder? A: Yes. With a strap drop of approximately 30 cm, this bag is designed to sit comfortably on the shoulder. Its flat, elongated shape also makes it a popular option for day-to-evening use.
Q: Is the Chanel East West Flap Bag discontinued? A: Yes, the East West Flap is widely regarded as a discontinued Chanel style. Its discontinued status is one of the reasons it remains popular on the vintage and second-hand market, especially among buyers looking for a less common Chanel flap shape.
Q: What condition is this bag in? A: This piece is listed in very good condition with light traces of use. The exterior and interior are both noted as very good, and the hardware is described as shiny with light scratches. As with all vintage items, gentle signs of age are normal and part of the bag’s character.
Q: What is included with this bag? A: According to the product information, this bag comes with a dust bag and serial number tag. If an item is not listed in the product information, it should not be assumed to be included.
Q: Where was this bag made? A: The product information states that this bag was made in Italy. Chanel vintage bags were produced in different locations depending on the period and model, so country of origin can vary from piece to piece.
Q: How should I care for a vintage Chanel flap bag like this? A: To help preserve it, store the bag in its dust bag, keep it away from prolonged sunlight, moisture, and heat, and avoid overfilling it so the silhouette stays neat. A soft, dry cloth can be used for light surface cleaning, and any deeper care is best handled by a specialist in luxury leather goods.
Q: Is this a good choice for everyday use or better for occasions? A: The East West Flap is often chosen as a versatile piece that works especially well for lunches, dinners, events, and polished daywear. It can be used during the day, but its slimmer capacity means it usually suits buyers who prefer carrying just the essentials.
