A chic choice for weekend brunch or a gallery opening, this vintage Céline Triomphe Chain Bag in mocha brown adds effortless polish. Its streamlined Small silhouette and gold-tone accents complement tailored neutrals or a slip dress, taking you seamlessly from afternoon coffee to dinner.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What can this Small Triomphe Chain Bag hold? A: With approximate interior space based on its measurements (about 17 × 10 × 7 cm), it fits a small smartphone, compact wallet or cardholder, keys, and a few small cosmetics. A long continental wallet or bulky sunglasses case is unlikely to fit comfortably.
Q: Can I wear it crossbody as well as on the shoulder? A: The chain has an approximate 55 cm drop as listed. That typically works as a shoulder strap and, for many, a short crossbody depending on height and layers. The chain is not adjustable.
Q: What is Triomphe canvas and how durable is it? A: Triomphe canvas is CELINE’s coated-canvas monogram paired with leather trims. It is light and hard-wearing with good resistance to surface scratches and light moisture, but it is not fully waterproof—wipe dry if it gets wet and avoid prolonged rain exposure.
Q: Is the vintage pattern the same as “Macadam”? A: Yes. On vintage pieces the repeating motif is often referred to as Macadam or Blazon Triomphe. CELINE today markets this heritage pattern as Triomphe canvas.
Q: How secure is this bag’s closure? A: This vintage model features a zip closure and a single main compartment with lining, keeping essentials secure. Using a small pouch for tiny items helps with organisation.
Q: Is the chain comfortable to wear? A: Chain straps naturally feel firmer on the shoulder than leather. For best comfort, avoid overloading the bag and position the chain over clothing rather than bare skin when possible.
Q: How should I care for the coated canvas and leather trim? A: Wipe the canvas with a soft, slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. For deeper cleans, use a gentle cleaner suitable for coated canvas. Condition only the leather trim sparingly with a neutral leather conditioner. Store the bag loosely stuffed in its dust bag, with the chain tucked inside to prevent imprints, away from heat, humidity, and potential colour transfer (for example, dark denim).
Q: Does this piece have a serial number? A: Many vintage Céline bags from this era do not feature a modern-style serial number or microchip. We authenticate through construction details, stamps, materials and hardware, and A Retro Tale guarantees the authenticity of every item we sell.
Q: What is included with this item? A: As listed under product information, this piece comes with a dust bag. If something is not listed there, it is not included.
Q: Is this a good everyday bag? A: Its compact size and durable coated canvas make it ideal for light daily essentials or evenings out. If you regularly carry larger items (such as a plus-sized phone, long wallet, or water bottle), consider a larger style.
