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 fits inside the Chanel Caviar Quilted Wallet On Chain (WOC)? A: Typically, it holds a smartphone, compact wallet or cardholder, keys, lipstick, folded notes, and a few small essentials. A slim passport and boarding pass usually fit, but full‑length (continental) wallets and tablets do not. Capacity can vary slightly by edition—please refer to the Measurements on this page or contact us for tailored fit advice for this exact piece.
Q: Will it fit an iPhone Pro/Max? A: Most WOCs accommodate larger smartphones, though very bulky cases can make the fit snug. For certainty, compare your phone’s dimensions with the Measurements listed or ask us to check the fit against this specific bag.
Q: Is the chain strap adjustable? Can I wear it crossbody? A: The chain is not adjustable. It’s designed for crossbody wear and can be doubled inside the flap for a shorter shoulder carry. We’ll list the strap drop under Measurements—if it’s missing, just ask and we’ll measure it for you.
Q: How secure is the closure and what compartments does it have? A: Classic WOCs typically feature a flap with a snap button closure. Inside, most versions include a main compartment, a zipped coin pocket, six card slots, slip pockets, a zip pocket on the inside of the flap (often called the “love letter” pocket), and a back exterior slip pocket. Layout can vary by season—please review our photos and description for the exact configuration of this item.
Q: What is caviar leather and what materials/hardware are common? A: Caviar is Chanel’s pebbled calfskin—known for its textured, more scratch‑resistant finish compared with smooth lambskin. WOCs come in various leathers and hardware tones (gold‑tone or silver‑tone); earlier vintage pieces may feature 24K gold‑plated hardware. Chanel bags are typically made in France or Italy; this listing states the exact country of origin for this item.
Q: How should I care for caviar leather? A: Keep the bag away from moisture, oils and prolonged sunlight, and be mindful of colour transfer from dark denim. Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth. Use a high‑quality, neutral leather conditioner very sparingly on smooth areas only (test first on a discreet spot). Store the bag lightly stuffed, upright, in a breathable dust bag, and place the chain inside with a soft cloth to prevent imprints or rubbing.
Q: Is the chain removable? Can I use it as a clutch? A: The chain is fixed and not designed to be removed. You can tuck the chain inside to carry it as a clutch; avoid overfilling and place a soft cloth between the chain and leather to minimise pressure marks.
Q: Where are the brand markings and codes located? A: Authentic Chanel bags feature “CHANEL” and “Made in France/Italy” heat‑stamped inside. Pre‑2021 pieces include a hologram serial sticker (often inside an interior pocket or along a seam) and may have an authenticity card; from around 2021 Chanel transitioned to an embedded microchip instead of a visible sticker/card. Placement and format vary by era—contact us for close‑up photos and dating help for this item.
Q: Is the Chanel WOC still produced? Are there different versions? A: Yes—the WOC is an ongoing Chanel style, offered in core and seasonal variations (e.g., Classic, Boy, Reissue, 19) with differing quilting, hardware and interiors. Availability and details change over time; the pre‑loved market is the best way to find specific editions.
Q: What accessories are included and how do you authenticate? A: Any included items (e.g., dust bag, box, authenticity card for older pieces) are listed under “Accessories.” If an accessory isn’t mentioned there, it isn’t included—feel free to contact us for confirmation. 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 all items we sell.
