This item is pre-owned and vintage, and a fabulous collectible piece. This style with single chain strap and curved front panel, also known as the "Diana bag," was recently resurrected by Chanel due to its popularity, but not again in this quality and craftsmanship. This style is especially rare and hard to find in Lambskin leather.
The long single woven shoulder chain can be worn long cross body (as it is a single chain) or doubled up as a short clutch, and the versatility makes it convenient for either work or play. One main compartment with side zipper pocket. Instead of a double flap and double strap, there is one long strap, allowing for the chain to connect directly with the main base of the bag instead of the top flap, allowing for better durability and structure. One of our favorites!
In black lambskin leather and 24k gold plated hardware.
In the small size, which is harder to find, the classic Diana flap is 9 inches wide, right in between the sizes of rectangular mini and medium classic in the classic flap world.
This item is in great condition with few signs of normal use. Corners are clean with no rubbing or scuffing. Hardware is clean and shiny. It is a deep, yellow 24k gold plated hardware which is impossible now to find in stores as it is no longer produced. Interior is clean. The beautiful leather is petal-soft, never refurbished, and representative of a time period when Chanel's quality was at its height. Please view all 12 to 16 photos of the actual bag, for details, and ask any questions.
