Condition
This vintage Chanel tote bag, dating from the 5-series (1997-1999), is presented in very good pre-owned condition with a grade of 95%. The rich dark brown grained calfskin leather exterior shows signs of age and use, including some minor surface scuffs, light scratches, and subtle areas of discoloration consistent with its vintage nature. The structure of the bag remains largely intact, though there is some softening of the leather. The handles exhibit slight darkening and wear along the edges, common for a well-loved item. The gold-tone hardware, particularly the top zipper, functions smoothly and retains its luster with minor signs of use. The interior is clean and well-maintained.
Exterior
Crafted from luxurious dark brown grained calfskin leather, known for its durability and textured finish, often referred to as Caviar leather. The front features a subtly embossed interlocking CC logo, a signature of Chanel's timeless design. The overall shape is a classic rectangular tote with sturdy, flat leather handles suitable for shoulder or hand carry. Visible signs of wear include minor scuffs and slight fading in areas, particularly on the base corners and along the edges.
Hardware
Features a top zipper closure with gold-tone hardware, providing secure access to the main compartment. The zipper pull is a matching leather tab. The hardware shows some light surface scratches but remains bright and fully functional.
Interior
The interior is lined with a tonal fabric, possibly grosgrain or similar, in a dark brown hue. It is clean and spacious, typical of a tote design. A stitched leather tag inside displays the authenticity sticker with the serial number 5177263.
