Crafted in black leather with classic diamond quilting, gold-tone hardware and long leather-woven chain straps, it has all the familiar Chanel codes without feeling like one of the more obvious classic shapes.\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"370\" data-end=\"643\"\u003eThe silhouette is soft and roomy, with a large exterior slip pocket and a small round \u003cstrong data-start=\"456\" data-end=\"478\"\u003eCC medallion charm\u003c\/strong\u003e at the front.

The exterior leather still presents very well, with a lovely sheen, defined quilting and only light general signs of wear throughout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1272\" data-end=\"1628\"\u003ePlease note that the \u003cstrong data-start=\"1293\" data-end=\"1369\"\u003einternal padding on the inside of the quilting has deteriorated with age\u003c\/strong\u003e. This gives some of the quilted sections a slightly crisp feel and creates a noticeable crackling sound when the bag is handled or pressed. The effect is not visible but noticeable to the touch and common with vintage Chanel bags this age. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1630\" data-end=\"1799\"\u003eThere is also some natural softening, creasing and age-related wear throughout, as expected from a bag of this age. Please refer closely to the images for the full condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1801\" data-end=\"2081\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1801\" data-end=\"1812\"\u003eStyling\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1812\" data-end=\"1815\"\u003eI’d wear this one exactly how I think vintage Chanel looks best: not too precious. With faded denim and a white tee, an oversized blazer, or a big knit and flat shoes. The relaxed tote shape makes it much easier for everyday wear than a more structured classic flap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2083\" data-end=\"2372\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2083\" data-end=\"2106\"\u003eWhy it made the cut\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"2106\" data-end=\"2109\"\u003eI love Chanel from this period because the house codes are all there. The quilting, gold chain, black leather and CC, but the shapes feel much less predictable. This one has real age and character to it, and that’s exactly what makes proper vintage interesting.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"sourced by","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54903322313050,"sku":null,"price":1920.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/2591\/4458\/files\/IMG_5293.jpg?v=1790969933","url":"https:\/\/sourcedby.store\/products\/vintage-chanel-quilted-cc-charm-chain-tote-1986-1988-karl-lagerfeld-era","provider":"sourced by","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
