Ideal for city errands, office days and weekend getaways, this blue canvas Chanel Deauville Shopping Tote with dark blue leather trim and silver-tone accents delivers effortless, polished carryall style. In very good condition, it blends form and function for travel and everyday wear.
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 Deauville Shopping Tote (Large)? A: With approximate dimensions of 40 × 36 × 16 cm, it comfortably holds a 13-inch laptop, A4/US Letter documents, a notebook or diary, a water bottle, a long wallet, sunglasses and daily essentials. Many slim 14–15-inch laptops also fit; please compare your device’s measurements to the bag’s interior and consider a slim sleeve for protection.
Q: Can I wear it crossbody? A: No. This model is designed for hand and shoulder carry. It has dual leather top handles (approx. 11 cm drop) and dual chain-and-leather shoulder straps (approx. 39 cm drop), which are ideal for the shoulder but typically too short for crossbody wear.
Q: How secure is the closure? A: The bag features a magnetic snap closure. For valuables, use the internal zip pocket or add a zipped bag organiser/pouch if you prefer a fully enclosed compartment.
Q: Is the canvas durable and will it sag over time? A: The Deauville’s canvas is robust yet intentionally relaxed and soft-sided, so it can slouch when heavily loaded. A lightweight base shaper or organiser helps maintain structure and keeps contents tidy. Avoid overfilling to preserve the silhouette.
Q: Is it suitable for rain, the beach or holiday use? A: The canvas is not waterproof. Light splashes are generally fine if wiped off promptly, but avoid heavy rain and prolonged moisture. Keep away from sunscreen and oils, and allow damp items to dry before placing them inside. With lighter colours, minimise contact with dark denim or garments to reduce the risk of colour transfer.
Q: How heavy is the bag? A: Exact weight varies by material and season. Canvas versions are relatively light for their size, but the Deauville can feel heavy once packed. Planning your load and using pouches can improve comfort.
Q: Is the Deauville still being produced? A: The Deauville is a seasonal Chanel style that returns frequently in different fabrics, colours and sizes. Availability varies by season and boutique, so options change over time.
Q: What does the serial number 25572285 indicate? A: This is a 25-series code, dating the bag to approximately 2018–2019. Chanel used serial-number stickers and authenticity cards up to 2021, after which microchipped metal plates replaced them. A matching card and serial sticker are helpful indicators, but expert authentication also examines materials, stitching, stamps and hardware.
Q: What accessories are included with this item? A: As listed, this piece comes with a box, dust bag, brand booklet, authenticity card and serial number tag. If an accessory is not listed, it is not included—feel free to contact us for confirmation.
Q: How should I care for and store it? A: Wipe canvas gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth; treat leather trims only with suitable leather care when needed. Avoid harsh chemicals, direct heat and prolonged sunlight. When not in use, empty the bag, stuff it lightly to support the shape, and store it in its dust bag in a cool, dry place.
