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 Jumbo Shiva Double Flap? A: With approximate measurements of 30 × 18 × 7 cm, it comfortably holds a long wallet, smartphone, keys, a slim sunglasses case, small cosmetics and an 8–9 inch tablet (such as an iPad mini). It will not accommodate A4 documents or a 13-inch laptop. Capacity varies with how you pack—please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact dimensions.
Q: Can I wear this Jumbo as a crossbody? A: The leather‑and‑chain strap is convertible (single or doubled) but not micro‑adjustable. Our Measurements show roughly 50 cm drop when worn single and around 20 cm when doubled. Many wear a Jumbo as a short crossbody depending on height and build; note that the Maxi generally has the longest strap of the Classic Flaps for crossbody wear. Always check the listed strap drop to gauge where it will sit on you.
Q: What does “double flap” mean and why does it matter? A: A double flap has an additional interior flap beneath the exterior flap. This design helps the bag keep its structure and adds security and organisation, though it slightly reduces interior space and adds a bit of weight compared with single‑flap versions.
Q: What is the Chanel “Shiva” line? A: Shiva is a seasonal line introduced around the Paris‑Bombay Métiers d’Art/Pre‑Fall 2012 collection. Pieces typically feature quilted glazed or crumpled leathers and antiqued hardware while retaining the classic CC turn‑lock and chain‑interwoven strap. This bag is a Jumbo double flap within that Shiva family.
Q: What year is this bag from based on the serial number 17033931? A: An 8‑digit Chanel serial beginning with 17 generally dates to approximately 2012–2013, aligning with the Paris‑Bombay period.
Q: How should I care for the metallic/glazed leather and aged gold‑tone hardware? A: Avoid overfilling to preserve shape, and keep light leathers/clothing separate from dark colours to minimise colour transfer. Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth; avoid chemicals and prolonged sun or moisture. Store in a breathable dust bag, loosely stuffed, with the chain tucked to prevent impressions on the leather.
Q: Is the strap adjustable? A: It is designed to be worn either single (longer) or doubled (shorter) but does not have incremental holes or buckles for fine adjustment. Please refer to the strap drop in the Measurements for how it will wear on you.
Q: What is included with this item? A: All inclusions are listed under product information. For this piece, the serial number tag is included. If an item such as a dust bag or authenticity card is not listed there, it is not included.
Q: Will it fit a small water bottle or umbrella? A: A slim mini umbrella or a small 250 ml bottle may fit, but to protect the structure and leather, avoid overfilling or forcing rigid items under the flap. Packing with smaller, soft‑sided pouches helps maximise space.
Q: How is authenticity guaranteed? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is thoroughly vetted by in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, stitching, stamps, hardware and serials. We stand behind the authenticity of all items and can share further details on request.
