Condition

This Chanel Chain Around Tote is in good pre-owned condition, exhibiting characteristics consistent with its aged calfskin material and regular use. The black oiled wax leather exterior maintains its diamond quilting, though with significant softening and natural creasing throughout, which is typical for this type of leather. Visible wear is present on the corners and edges, as well as on the top handles, showing some loss of structure and minor surface scuffs. The gold-tone hardware, including the iconic interlocking CC logo and chain straps, shows signs of use such as light scratching and some fading of the plating, particularly on the CC turn-lock mechanism. The interior, lined with a striped textile, appears clean with minor signs of use, without major stains or damage visible. The overall structure is soft, contributing to a relaxed silhouette.

Exterior

Crafted from black aged calfskin, known for its unique wrinkled texture and durability. The bag features Chanel's signature diamond quilting across its body. Double rolled leather top handles allow for hand carry, while interwoven leather and gold-tone chain straps offer shoulder versatility. The base is fitted with protective metal feet.

Hardware

Polished gold-tone hardware adorns the bag, including the prominent interlocking CC turn-lock closure on the front, the rings securing the top handles, and the robust chain-link shoulder straps. There are signs of wear such as minor surface scratches and some subtle fading of the gold plating, consistent with regular use.

Interior

The spacious interior is lined with a dark, finely striped textile fabric. It features a main compartment, a zip-fastening pocket for securing valuables, and additional slip pockets for organization. A 'CHANEL MADE IN ITALY' leather tag is present inside. The lining appears generally clean with minimal signs of use.

Notable Features

The distinctive aged calfskin leather gives the bag a unique, softened appearance, while the intricate 'chain around' detailing provides an elegant finish. Its generous size makes it a practical choice for daily essentials or travel, often referred to as an 'airport bag' due to its capacity.
