Chanel Vintage Reissue Large Camera Case Shoulder Bag in Aged Metallic Black Calfskin

 This is a 100% authentic Chanel Large Reissue Camera Case Shoulder Bag in Aged Metallic Black Calfskin with Dark Silver (almost Black) Hardware.

 A vintage piece from 2008, purchased from Fashionphile 09.09.21 but not subsequently used, (security tag removed by me for photos,) this generously sized, zip top bauletto is crafted from a distressed, quilted calfskin in a fabulous, dark pewter, silvery-black calfskin.

Creasy, characterful with a beautiful crackled metallic finish and adorned by a bijoux jewellery chain with the slightest iridescence, its a Chanel you'll never need to baby.

Comprising of a handy, front slip section, classic rear pocket, dual sliding chain and fully lined in the softest, black calfskin, its an incredibly practical piece with plenty of room for everything you need for day or evening. A great, office to drinks bag ....it's casual and roomy enough for everyday but smart and special enough for after-dark.

Best suited to hand or shoulder carry with the chain doubled, as will 'tip' forward if the chain is worn long, (single.) See photo provide below.

Condition - Well Used

Details

A naturally supple design, the form is softened and as has been stored without stuffing the profile has narrowed towards the top, (see photos shown when empty.) The quilt does not feel deflated but the hide has a slightly dry feel, with is entirely normal with Chanel's aged calfskin finish.

No marks, scratches or scuffs, just the smoothing to the grain at the corner curves where the distressed finish blends effortlessly with the remainder of the piece. Shown in close up detail in the photo gallery, there is no detriment, no peeling, cracking, flaking or issue.

Stitching all tight and hardware shiny with some surface scratching to the end of the faux turnlock and the O rings, (barely visible to the naked eye.)

The interior is clean, displaying general signs of use, creasiness and fingernail scuffs. The main compartment is lined is super soft, glossy calfskin with two slip pockets and key clip. There is also a sizable, full depth, textile lined zip pocket, (perfect for large continental purses, etc.)

The serial numbered sticker has yellowed with age and is peeling slightly. (The Black Plastic Serial numbered Chanel Card is not present.)

Please note there is an aged aroma to the piece. Not a stored/musty or unpleasant smell, just rich leather combined with age that brings echoes of a life previously lived.
