Perfect for weddings, cocktail parties and chic city evenings, this black Chanel Wallet On Chain keeps essentials close without compromising elegance. Crafted in quilted Caviar leather with gold-tone accents and a crossbody chain, it moves effortlessly from day to night. In very good condition, it's ideal when you need just the essentials such as phone, cards and lipstick, while keeping your look polished and timeless.
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 the Chanel Wallet On Chain (WOC)? A: Despite its slim profile (please see the Measurements on this page for exact dimensions), it comfortably holds a smartphone, notes, coins, six cards (no card holder needed), a key fob and a lip balm. Packing flatter items helps the flap close smoothly and keeps the silhouette neat. Capacity varies slightly by what you carry and whether your phone has a bulky case.
Q: Is the strap suitable for crossbody wear and what is the drop? A: Yes, the leather‑interwoven chain is designed for crossbody or on‑shoulder wear. The drop is approximately 61 cm on this piece. Chain length can vary a little by season, and the strap is not adjustable. Many owners shorten the drop by looping the chain inside the bag when desired.
Q: How is the interior organised on the Classic WOC? A: The Classic WOC layout includes six card slots, one main compartment, a zipped pocket on the flap, an interior zipped pocket, a flat slip pocket, and an exterior back slip pocket. It’s essentially a wallet interior with smart compartments, attached to a long chain for hands‑free wear.
Q: Will a large phone (e.g., iPhone Pro Max/Plus‑size) fit? A: In most cases, yes. Large phones typically fit in the main compartment, though you may need to angle the device and avoid an overly thick case. If the flap feels tight or the press‑stud strains, remove bulk and reposition to prevent imprinting or stress on the closure.
Q: Is Chanel caviar leather durable and how should I care for it? A: Caviar (pebbled calfskin) is known for being more resistant to surface scratches and day‑to‑day wear than smooth lambskin. Care is simple: do not overfill, avoid prolonged contact with dark fabrics on light leathers, keep away from heat and moisture, and store stuffed in a breathable dust bag. Wipe occasionally with a soft, dry cloth; use specialist leather care sparingly and test first.
Q: What year is this bag from based on the serial number 24328696? A: A 24‑series serial (24XXXXXX) indicates production in approximately late 2017 to early 2018. From 2021 onward, Chanel phased out serial stickers and authenticity cards in favour of a metal microchip plate; this piece predates that change. Please refer to the product information on this page to see exactly what is included with this item.
Q: Can I wear it as a clutch or shorten the chain without alterations? A: Yes. Tuck the chain fully inside to carry it as a clutch, or loop the chain under the flap to reduce the drop for shoulder wear. These are common styling methods that do not permanently alter the bag.
Q: Where are Chanel WOCs made? A: Chanel produces WOCs in France, Italy and Spain, depending on season and batch. This specific piece is stamped Made in France, as shown in the product information. Country of manufacture does not affect authenticity or quality.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under the product information section for this listing. For this piece, a serial number tag is included. If an item such as a box, dust bag or authenticity card is not listed there, it is not included.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this Chanel WOC? A: Every piece is vetted by our in‑house experts using a multi‑point process that reviews materials, stitching, construction, stamping/fonts, hardware, and serial number analysis. We never rely on a serial alone; overall craftsmanship and consistency with known Chanel specifications are evaluated before listing.
