Q: What typically fits inside the Chanel CC Camera Bag?
A: With approximate measurements of 23 × 16 × 6 cm, it comfortably holds a large smartphone, a compact wallet or card holder, keys, lipstick, and a slim sunglasses sleeve. A passport fits easily. It will not fit most tablets. For best guidance, compare your daily essentials with the listed measurements.

Q: Is the strap adjustable and can I wear it crossbody?
A: The interwoven leather-and-chain strap has an approximate 45 cm drop. It is not adjustable or detachable. Most find it works as a shoulder bag or a higher‑sitting crossbody depending on height. If you prefer a shorter carry, you can gently tie a small interior knot in the chain to reduce the drop, ensuring the chain does not press against the leather.

Q: Which year is this bag from?
A: The serial number 3179161 places it in Chanel’s 3‑series, produced approximately between 1994 and 1996.

Q: Does the hardware contain real gold?
A: Many Chanel bags produced before late 2008 featured 24k gold‑plated hardware. As a mid‑1990s piece, this bag comes from that era. However, we cannot guarantee the precise plating composition of an individual vintage item; this piece is described as gold‑tone in the product information.

Q: What comes with this bag?
A: Everything included is listed under product information. For this piece, an authenticity card is included. If a dust bag or box is not listed there, it is not included—feel free to contact us if you would like us to confirm.

Q: Where can I find the serial sticker, and should it match the authenticity card?
A: The serial sticker is typically found inside the lining near a bottom corner. The number on the sticker should match the number on the authenticity card. Note that stickers can age or detach over time; every item at A Retro Tale is carefully authenticated via multi‑point checks before it is listed.

Q: How should I care for the lambskin leather and tassel?
A: Keep the bag away from prolonged light and humidity. For light surface marks on lambskin, gently buff with a soft, non‑pilling cloth in small circular motions. Avoid harsh cleaners or oils. Store it upright, lightly stuffed, in a breathable dust bag, and wrap the chain to prevent imprints. Keep the tassel straight and avoid pulling or snagging the fringe; use tissue to keep it aligned during storage.

Q: Can Chanel replace the tassel or carry out repairs on a vintage camera bag?
A: Repair options for vintage pieces can be limited and vary by boutique, parts availability and assessment. Chanel’s current five‑year warranty applies to handbags purchased new from Chanel from April 2021 onwards with proof of purchase, so vintage items fall outside this warranty. Where brand repairs are not available, reputable independent restoration specialists can help. Contact us for recommendations.

Q: What are the pocket and closure details?
A: The bag has a zip‑top main compartment with black leather lining and one internal pocket. There is also a front flap pocket with a CC turn‑lock, and a leather tassel attached to the zip pull for easier grip.
