Bag Chanel Baguette black quilted leather

Model History:
At the turn of the 2000s, Chanel explored simpler, more contemporary lines, while retaining the high standards of craftsmanship that define the house. Baguette bags became emblematic pieces, worn naturally under the arm in a spirit that was both chic and casual. Produced in more limited quantities than the iconic 2.55 or Timeless, these sleek designs are now sought-after for their understated elegance. The lambskin leather and matte jewelry used in this version reflect a taste for sobriety and luxurious finishes without ostentation.

Exterior details :

The black lambskin leather, supple and delicately shiny, has a smooth surface, characteristic of Chanel bags in full-grain leather. The baguette shape, elongated and structured, elegantly hugs the silhouette, yet remains compact and light. The rectangular flap is adorned with the house’s emblematic turnstile clasp, the intertwined double C in matte gold metal, an instantly recognizable visual signature. The shoulder strap, composed of a gilded metal chain interlaced with black leather, allows classic shoulder carrying, with a fluid, balanced fall. The contrast between the satin shine of the metal and the softness of the leather creates a subtle play of texture, reinforcing the elegance of the model. The ensemble faithfully reflects the Chanel style of the early 2000s, with its timelessness and discreet refinement.

Interior Details:
The interior is lined in smooth black leather, with a spacious main compartment for a bag of this size. A flat inside pocket holds cards or small personal items. The serial number, starting with 6, is affixed to a sewn-in label, confirming manufacture between 2000 and 2002. The lining is tight, the seams clean, and the interior surface free of stains or scratches.

Product Condition:
This bag is in excellent condition for a vintage piece. The leather retains all its suppleness and shine, with no scratches or marks. The corners show no wear, and the shoulder strap is tight, with no deformation. The matt gold jewelry is uniform, with no oxidation. The interior is clean, with no discoloration, and the closure works perfectly. The entire bag has retained its original structure.

Care instructions:
As lambskin is delicate, we recommend handling it with care, avoiding contact with liquids, perfumes or rough textiles. For cleaning, use a soft, dry cloth. If necessary, contact a leather professional specialized in luxury leather goods. When not in use, the bag should be stored away from direct light, in a fabric cover and lined with tissue paper to maintain its shape.
