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: Is the Chanel Paris-Biarritz tote still in production? A: No. The Paris-Biarritz line debuted in the mid-2000s as part of Chanel’s travel-inspired collection and has since been discontinued, so pieces are available only pre-loved.
Q: What is this bag made of and is it water-resistant? A: This piece is crafted from black quilted coated canvas with leather trim and silver-tone hardware. Coated canvas is water-resistant for light showers, but not fully waterproof—wipe dry promptly and avoid heavy rain or soaking.
Q: Can I carry it on the shoulder? A: Yes. The dual leather top handles have an approximate 21 cm drop, which allows comfortable shoulder carry for most wearers.
Q: Does it come with a shoulder strap? A: No. The Paris-Biarritz tote is designed to be handheld or shoulder-carried by its top handles and does not include a detachable shoulder strap.
Q: What typically fits inside? A: With measurements around 40 × 30 × 14 cm, it comfortably fits everyday work essentials, A4 documents, and up to a 15-inch laptop (allowing for the thickness of a sleeve), plus a water bottle and small pouch.
Q: How is the bag organised? A: It features a secure top zip closure, one exterior zipped pocket, two side slip pockets, and a fabric-lined interior with one zipped pocket—ideal for items you need to keep separate and secure.
Q: Does this specific item include a detachable pouch or other extras? A: Some larger Paris-Biarritz totes were originally supplied with a detachable interior pouch. This particular item includes only the serial number tag as listed under Accessories.
Q: What does the serial number 11722117 indicate? A: It belongs to Chanel’s 11-series, which dates to approximately 2006–2008. Serial numbers of this era use eight digits to indicate the production series.
Q: Where was this bag made? A: The country of origin label indicates France.
Q: Any care tips for coated canvas and leather trim? A: Wipe the coated canvas with a soft, slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. Treat the leather trim sparingly with a neutral leather conditioner, avoiding oils and harsh cleaners. Store the bag stuffed in a breathable dust bag away from direct sunlight and humidity to help maintain its shape.
