Vintage Black Lambskin Medium Classic Flap
The Chanel double flap bag will forever be one of the most iconic bags in the world. This bag showcases Chanel’s DNA and brings together history, luxury, and craftsmanship which is why it’s as popular today as it was when it first launched.
The Chanel Flap Bag was originally designed by Gabrielle ‘Coco’ Chanel back in 1955. It was born out of her annoyance with having to clutch onto her purse all night, so she added a strap to free up her hands. Up until then handbags were hand-held. It was re-designed in the 1980’s by Karl Lagerfeld to include the now-iconic CC turnlock. These bags are referred to by Chanel as part of the “Timeless Classic” collection and there’s something quite special about owning one.
This medium 10 inch classic double flap in black, buttery lambskin leather is a 2 series circa ‘’1991 – 1994' it includes the classic, woven chain shoulder strap that can be on the shoulder or crossbody.
