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 Lambskin Vertical Quilted Jumbo Single Flap? A: With approximate measurements of 22 × 30 × 8.5 cm for this exact piece, it suits everyday essentials: a large smartphone (including most Pro/Max models), a compact wallet or cardholder, keys, lipstick, slim sunglasses in a soft sleeve, and a small cosmetics pouch. A compact e‑reader or iPad mini–sized tablet can fit; rigid cases or bulky pouches reduce usable space. The single‑flap construction offers more interior room than a double‑flap of similar size.
Q: Will it fit a full‑size iPad or A4 documents? A: A full‑size iPad may fit horizontally or on a diagonal in some single‑flap Jumbos, but it will be a snug fit and adds noticeable weight. A4 documents (21 × 29.7 cm) do not lie perfectly flat due to the 22 cm height and curved flap; we recommend A5 notebooks or folding documents instead.
Q: Is the strap adjustable, and can I wear it crossbody? A: The classic chain‑and‑leather strap is not adjustable, but it is convertible. Wear it doubled for a shoulder carry or as a single chain for a longer shoulder or crossbody wear. For this piece, the strap drop is approximately 34 cm when doubled and 64 cm when single; many find the single‑chain drop suitable for crossbody depending on height and layers.
Q: How secure is the closure and what is the interior layout? A: It features the iconic CC turn‑lock on a single flap for quick yet secure access. Inside you’ll find a red leather lining with organisational pockets, and there is one exterior back slip pocket for travel cards or receipts. Our listing photos show the exact configuration.
Q: Is the gold‑tone hardware 24K gold‑plated on this vintage piece? A: Many Chanel bags from the mid‑1990s were produced with 24K gold‑plated hardware. Given this bag’s era, its gold hardware is typically 24K plated. Light hairline scratches or slight colour changes are normal signs of age and use and are reflected in our condition notes.
Q: What year does serial number 3114664 indicate? A: Chanel “3‑series” serials (3XXXXXX) date approximately to 1994–1996. This aligns with the vintage vertical‑quilted Jumbo Single Flap configurations from the Karl Lagerfeld era.
Q: Is this vertical‑quilted single‑flap Jumbo still produced by Chanel? A: Vertical‑quilted, single‑flap Jumbos like this are vintage configurations and are not part of Chanel’s current Classic Flap production. The pre‑loved market is the best source for this style.
Q: How should I care for the lambskin leather and chain strap? A: Keep lambskin away from moisture and prolonged sunlight, and be mindful of friction and colour transfer from dark denim. Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth; avoid harsh cleaners or wipes. For storage, wrap the chain to prevent impressions, place a soft cloth between hardware and leather, and store the bag upright in a breathable dust bag, lightly stuffed to maintain its shape.
Q: How can I prevent chain imprints and maintain the bag’s structure? A: Do not let the chain rest directly on the leather during storage. Tuck the chain inside with a protective felt/soft cloth, avoid overfilling, and maintain the bag’s silhouette by lightly padding the interior with acid‑free tissue. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
Q: What accessories are included and how do you authenticate? A: This piece comes with its serial (hologram) number tag and authenticity card as listed under Accessories. Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes rigorous multi‑point authentication by our in‑house experts—checking materials, stitching, stamps, hardware and serials. Note that Chanel transitioned from serial stickers/cards to embedded microchips from 2021 onward; vintage bags like this correctly have a sticker and card rather than a microchip.
Q: What is the condition of this specific bag? A: Overall: Very Good. Exterior: Very Good with light signs of use and light scratches. Interior: Very Good with light signs of use. Hardware: Shiny with scratches and some discolouration. Please review the photos and measurements for the best representation of this piece.
