A Chanel flap bag in black quilted patent leather, the flap edged with a gold-tone chain that loops into a heart around the CC lock.
The Piece
Chanel was founded by Gabrielle Chanel, who opened her first Paris boutique, a milliner's, in 1910.
The flap is quilted in a diamond pattern in glossy black patent, and a fine gold-tone chain runs along its lower edge before curling into a heart that frames the CC clasp. A shoulder chain laced with black leather carries the bag at a fixed length, and the back is quilted to match.
Inside are a zipped pocket and an open pocket, and a gold plaque carries the Chanel mark and the masked serial. The lining reads Chanel, made in Italy.
