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 Caviar Wallet On Chain (WOC)? A: Despite its slim profile, it’s practical for essentials: a large smartphone, keys, lipstick, compact cardholder (or use the built‑in card slots), and a few small items like AirPods or a travel‑size hand sanitiser. Continental (long) wallets, small water bottles and tablets generally do not fit. Please refer to the Measurements (approx. 19 x 13 x 4 cm) on this page or ask us for a tailored fit check for this exact piece.
Q: Will my iPhone Pro/Max fit? A: Most Pro/Max phones fit horizontally. Very bulky or rugged cases can make the fit snug. For certainty, compare your device’s dimensions with the Measurements provided, or ask us to perform a quick fit check against this specific bag before purchase.
Q: Is the chain strap adjustable or removable? Can I wear it crossbody? A: The interwoven leather‑and‑chain strap is not adjustable and not designed to be removed. It can be worn on the shoulder or as a crossbody. This listing shows an approx. 63 cm strap drop—if you’d like advice on how it will sit on you, just ask and we’ll help.
Q: How secure is the closure and what is the interior layout? A: The WOC features a snap‑button flap that provides good day‑to‑day security. Inside, this piece has a burgundy fabric lining with multiple card slots and one zipped pocket, plus the main compartment. For valuables, we recommend using the zipped pocket and keeping the bag upright during commuting.
Q: What is Chanel Caviar leather and how durable is it compared with lambskin? A: Caviar is Chanel’s pebbled calfskin—known for its textured surface and excellent everyday durability. It’s generally more resistant to light scratches and pressure marks than lambskin, making it a popular choice for frequently used pieces like the WOC.
Q: How should I care for the Caviar leather and gold‑tone hardware? A: Keep the bag away from moisture, oils and prolonged sunlight, and be mindful of colour transfer from dark denim onto the black leather. Wipe with a soft, dry cloth; condition smooth leathers sparingly (always test on a discreet area first—Caviar rarely needs conditioning). Store stuffed, upright, in a breathable dust bag, and avoid overfilling to preserve the flap and snap alignment. Hardware can develop light hairline scratches with normal use—avoid abrasive surfaces.
Q: Will the chain leave marks on the leather? How should I store it? A: Chain imprints can occur if the strap presses against the leather during storage. To minimise marks, tuck the chain inside the bag with a soft cloth or felt barrier, avoid overstuffing, and store the bag upright and lightly padded to maintain its shape.
Q: Where are the brand markings and codes located, and how is dating handled? A: Authentic Chanel bags typically feature “CHANEL” and “Made in France” or “Made in Italy” inside; this piece is stamped Made in France. Older models include a hologram serial sticker and an authenticity card; from around 2021 Chanel transitioned to embedded microchips instead of cards. Placement and format vary by era—contact us for close‑up photos and help with dating this specific piece.
Q: Can Chanel repair or service the WOC? A: Chanel boutiques offer repair services subject to assessment and parts availability (e.g., snap, hardware, chain, some leather touch‑ups). Costs and lead times vary by region. Independent luxury leather specialists can also perform cleaning and restoration. We’re happy to advise on typical options and help you prepare for a boutique assessment.
Q: What accessories are included and how do you authenticate? A: Included items are listed under “Accessories.” For this piece, we note authenticity card, dust bag and serial number tag. Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes rigorous, multi‑point authentication by our in‑house experts, assessing materials, stitching, hardware, stamps, serial sticker/microchip and overall construction. We stand behind the authenticity of every piece we sell.
