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 are the measurements and strap drop for this Wallet on Chain? A: The bag measures approximately 19 × 12 × 4 cm with a strap drop of about 60 cm, making it ideal for crossbody or shoulder wear. Please note that hand measurements can vary slightly.
Q: What typically fits inside a Chanel WOC of this size? A: It comfortably carries a smartphone, keys, lipstick, and other small essentials. The interior is cleverly organised like a wallet, so you can use the card slots for your cards and leave space for a slim key pouch or compact. Avoid overfilling to ensure the flap closes neatly.
Q: Will an iPhone Pro Max fit? A: Most standard and larger smartphones fit horizontally. Pro Max models can fit snugly when not in a bulky case and when the bag isn’t overstuffed. For best results, compare your phone against the interior width (approx. 19 cm) and place it horizontally.
Q: How is the interior organised? A: The classic WOC layout includes six card slots, a main compartment, two slip pockets, a zipped pocket inside the flap, and an exterior back slip pocket—allowing you to travel light without a separate wallet.
Q: Is the chain strap adjustable or removable? A: The chain is fixed and not designed to be removed. You can shorten the drop by doubling the chain under the flap or tucking it in to carry the bag as a clutch. We don’t recommend tying knots or using makeshift clips that could mark the leather or stress the closure.
Q: What type of leather is this and how durable is it? A: This piece is crafted from grained caviar calfskin, prized for its pebbled texture and resistance to light scratches—an excellent choice for frequent wear.
Q: How should I care for caviar leather and the hardware? A: Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth and avoid harsh cleaners. Keep the bag away from prolonged sunlight and humidity, and store it upright in a breathable dust bag with the chain wrapped to prevent impressions on the leather. Do not overstuff, as this can strain the press-stud closure.
Q: What closure does this piece have? A: This particular WOC features a flap with a press-stud closure. Take care to align the stud and avoid overfilling so that it snaps closed easily.
Q: When was this bag produced based on the serial number 15823301? A: The 15-series serial indicates production circa 2012, which aligns with the vintage status of this piece.
Q: What accessories are included and where was it made? A: Included is the serial number tag, as listed. This bag is stamped Made in Spain. If an item like a dust bag or authenticity card isn’t listed under Accessories, it is not included.
Q: How do you authenticate this item? A: Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes a multi‑point inspection by our in‑house experts, including materials, stitching, stamps, date codes/serials, and hardware. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and are happy to provide additional photos or details on request.
