Chanel Mini Gabrielle Twin Zipped Pochette Shoulder Messenger Clutch in Bicolore Cream and Black Calfskin

This is a 100% authentic Chanel Mini Gabrielle Twin Zipped Pochette Shoulder Messenger Clutch in Bicolore Cream and Black Calfskin with a mix of Pewter Ruthenium, Antiqued Gold, Shiny Silver and Polished Gold Hardware.

Named after ‘Coco’ Chanels real first name, the Gabrielle range is eclectically inspired, both by virtual reality goggles and vintage binocular cases. 

Combining a gloriously creasy and distressed, nude-cream toned, quilted, aged calfskin upper with a firm and glossy, black structured lower base, this beautiful little Chanel is the perfect balance of suppleness and rigidity.

Comprising of three sections, the outer two being zip top sectured, there are multi ways to wear….on your shoulder, cross-body or detach the strap to carry as a clutch. 

Wonderfully light, easy to use and so versatile, its a great alternative to a Wallet on Chain.

There are lots of additional photos in the Gallery below, so don't forget to review in full, to help with your buying decisions.

Condition -  Very Good

Details -

Carried only a handful of times, without close review this peice appears perfect.

Gentle fluffing to the zip fabric from use, all stitching is tight, inking, (edge sealant) in place and hardware is As New.

The interior is lined in clean bordeaux grossgrain with six card slots, (three in each of of the zipped compartments.)

The smooth, solid lower area is crafted from a very dense shell covered by a smooth, glossy 'vernice' calfskin which displays its own natural finish and character. As part of the construction, the hide displays tiny, curved, parallel lines that, on very close inspection, look like miniscule scratches. These are not scratches just normal gathering in the finish (like a ballerina's slipper) as the leather has been moulded around the firm panelling. There is a single, very light, diagonal fingernail scratch to the front, LH side and a small dot surface impression. To the rear, LH side there is a very light surface impression from resting on the chain strap in storage.

The cream calfskin is entirely without without any marks, scratches, scuffs or wear, however there is an extremely vague darkening, horizontally across the top seam of the bag, (on both sides). Possibly caused by colour transfer from clothing, it's so slight to be barely even there. The more you look at it, the less you can see anything....it's like trying to identify something that's not there, even when you know there is!! There are lots of photos below however it really is almost imperceptible.
