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 in the Chanel Deauville MM? A: This piece measures approximately 34 × 30 × 13 cm, so it comfortably holds a 13-inch laptop, A4 documents, a water bottle, wallet, phone, and a small cosmetics pouch. A slim 14-inch device may fit depending on its exact dimensions; most 15-inch laptops are too wide for this size. Using a lightweight organiser helps keep items upright and the tote’s shape tidy.
Q: Does the Deauville have a secure closure? A: Yes. The Deauville line typically features a magnetic snap closure for quick access, along with interior pockets for smaller items. This specific bag closes with a magnetic snap.
Q: Are there metal feet on the base? A: Most canvas and raffia Deauville totes do not have metal feet. We recommend placing it on clean, dry surfaces and using a base insert if you want extra structure and protection.
Q: How comfortable are the shoulder chains? A: The Deauville’s chain-and-leather straps are designed for shoulder carry and many versions include leather shoulder rests for comfort. With an approximate 30 cm drop on this piece, it sits well over the shoulder, even with light outerwear. As with any large tote, comfort depends on how much you carry.
Q: Is the bag structured or soft? A: The Deauville is a soft-sided tote with a slightly boxy base. It will slouch a little when empty. A bag organiser or base shaper helps maintain structure and distributes weight more evenly.
Q: Will it work as a work or travel tote? A: Absolutely. The capacity suits daily essentials plus work items like a 13-inch laptop or tablet. For travel, it functions as an elegant carry‑on personal item for most airlines; always check your carrier’s current cabin rules.
Q: How should I care for the raffia exterior? A: Keep raffia away from water and high humidity, as moisture can distort fibres. Brush off dust gently with a soft, dry brush; for light marks, dab with a barely damp cloth and let it air dry away from direct heat or sun. Avoid harsh chemicals, coloured liquids, or abrasive surfaces that can snag the weave. Store stuffed, in a breathable dust bag, with straps tucked to prevent impressions on the raffia.
Q: Any general Chanel care tips I should follow? A: Do not overfill the bag to preserve its lines, and minimise contact between light and dark colours to prevent colour transfer. Store it in a cool, dry place, loosely stuffed so it holds its shape.
Q: What production year does serial number 26834106 indicate? A: Chanel serial numbers beginning with 26 typically correspond to the 2019 production period. Note that from 2021 onwards, many Chanel bags moved to microchipped identifiers rather than hologram stickers.
Q: What accessories are included with this item? A: This listing includes the serial number tag as stated. If a dust bag, box, or authenticity card is not listed under Accessories, it is not included. Every item at A Retro Tale is authenticated through a rigorous, multi‑point inspection by our experts.
