Chanel vintage Matelassé shoulder bag in lambskin – pre-owned
The Chanel vintage Matelassé shoulder bag in lambskin is a true collector’s item and a beautiful example of the timeless elegance for which the fashion house Chanel has been renowned for decades. This exceptional pre-owned designer bag is crafted from soft lambskin in a deep dark blue shade that appears almost black. Only at the stitching is the subtle dark blue visible, giving the bag a unique and refined appearance.
The bag dates from the period 1989–1991 and features stunning 24k gold-plated hardware. The golden shine remains fully intact, with only a few minor scratches consistent with the age of a vintage Chanel bag. The iconic CC turnlock closure exudes classic luxury, while the unique chain, approximately 107 cm in length, allows the bag to be worn elegantly over the shoulder or comfortably as a crossbody — a rare feature in vintage models, which often have shorter chains.
The soft lambskin feels luxurious and is in good vintage condition. As expected, there are some signs of wear, mainly visible on the corners, edges, and sides of the bag, but these do not detract from the charm and beauty of this authentic Chanel piece. The unique design is reminiscent of the classic Single Flap Bag but opens in a playful accordion style, with the chain subtly integrated into the leather. The refined hardware details, featuring the recognizable CC logo, highlight the exceptional quality and craftsmanship that have defined Chanel for generations.
This Chanel vintage Matelassé shoulder bag is not only a stylish accessory but also a valuable addition for any collector of authentic designer bags. It is a bag that exudes history while remaining effortlessly wearable for any occasion.
The bag comes with an Entrupy certificate of authenticity, the original serial number, a Purse Curse dust bag, and an exclusive Purse Curse bag holder, ensuring that you are receiving a 100% authentic Chanel item.
