Its compact medium silhouette and burgundy double-flap interior keep essentials tidy, elevating a little black dress or a tailored suit with effortless sophistication.
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 Classic Medium Double Flap? A: Daily essentials such as a smartphone, compact wallet or cardholder, keys, lipstick and small cosmetics fit comfortably. The double-flap construction slightly reduces usable space, so slimmer items pack best. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact dimensions and pack accordingly.
Q: Can I wear this size cross-body? A: The strap can be worn doubled on the shoulder or extended as a single strap. With an approximate drop of 23 cm (doubled) or 42 cm (single), cross-body wear sits relatively high on most frames; many prefer it as a shoulder bag. Personal fit varies by height and build.
Q: Will a large smartphone (e.g., iPhone Pro/Pro Max) fit? A: Yes, a large smartphone typically fits in the main compartment; it may be snug with a thick case. The rear half‑moon pocket is intended for slim items like tickets or receipts and is not recommended for bulky phones to avoid stretching the leather.
Q: What is the “double flap” and why does it matter? A: The design features an exterior flap plus an interior flap that closes over the main compartment. This adds structure and privacy and creates the signature interior layout with a zip pocket under the first flap, two open pockets and a central lipstick slot, plus the exterior half‑moon pocket.
Q: What does the serial number 19194820 indicate? A: Chanel serial numbers help date production. A 19‑series code corresponds to around 2014. Exact months or factories cannot be determined from the code alone.
Q: What leather is this and how does it wear? A: This model is in lambskin leather. Lambskin is soft and luxurious with a smooth hand; it can show surface marks more readily than grained leathers (often called caviar). Many collectors choose lambskin for its classic look and feel, while storing and handling it with care.
Q: How should I care for lambskin and the hardware? A: Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth and avoid harsh products. Keep away from prolonged sunlight, humidity and colour transfer. When storing, wrap the chain to prevent imprints, lightly stuff the bag to support its shape and place it upright in a breathable dust bag.
Q: Does an iPad mini fit? A: No. Given the bag’s height and internal clearances, an iPad mini is typically too tall to fit comfortably under the double flap.
Q: Is the Medium also called M/L or 25? A: Yes. The Classic Medium (often called Medium/Large or “25”) typically measures about 25.5 × 15.5 × 6.5–7 cm, which matches the measurements shown here.
Q: What is included and how do you authenticate? A: Everything included is listed under the product information section; for this item, a serial number tag is included. Every piece at A Retro Tale is rigorously authenticated by in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, construction, stamps and serials, and we stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell.
