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 typically fits inside this Chanel Caviar Chocolate Bar Shoulder Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 27 × 26 × 11 cm, it comfortably holds a long wallet, smartphone, keys, sunglasses, a small cosmetics pouch, and a compact umbrella. Most 11-inch tablets may fit without a bulky case, but A4 documents will not lie flat. Please compare with the Measurements on this page to be sure.
Q: Can it be worn crossbody? A: No. This model is designed as a shoulder bag with dual straps and an approximate 21 cm drop, so it sits neatly under the arm rather than across the body.
Q: Is the Chanel Chocolate Bar line still in production? A: No. The Chocolate Bar range is discontinued and now sourced on the pre-loved market. Pieces were produced primarily in the early-to-mid 2000s, which adds to their collectability.
Q: What is Chanel Caviar leather and how does it wear over time? A: Caviar is a pebbled calfskin known for its textured grain and excellent resistance to surface scratches. It tends to be more hard-wearing and structured than smoother leathers, making it well suited to frequent use while still ageing beautifully with proper care.
Q: How should I care for this Caviar leather bag? A: Wipe down with a soft, dry cloth after use. For deeper cleans, use a gentle leather cleaner suitable for coated calfskin and avoid saturating the leather. Keep away from oils, dyes, and prolonged sunlight or heat. If the bag gets wet, blot and allow to air-dry naturally. Store it loosely stuffed in a breathable dust bag to maintain shape and help prevent colour transfer.
Q: What are the closures and pockets on this bag? A: It features a secure zip-top closure, a main compartment with an internal zipped pocket, and practical exterior pockets for quick-access essentials.
Q: What items are included with this piece? A: Everything included is listed under the product information. For this item, that is the dust bag and the serial number tag. If an item such as an authenticity card or box is not listed there, it is not included.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every piece at A Retro Tale is examined by specialists using multi-point checks of materials, stitching, stamps, hardware and serial details. The serial number on this bag begins with 10, which corresponds to the mid-2000s 8-digit series, aligning with the model and period. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and are happy to provide further details upon request.
Q: Is the bag rainproof? A: Caviar leather is more resilient than many smooth leathers but it is not waterproof. Avoid heavy rain; if exposed to moisture, blot gently and let it air-dry. Consider using a protective spray suitable for finished calfskin and be mindful of colour transfer from dark clothing.
