Q: What are the dimensions and what can it hold? A: The approximate measurements are 15 x 10.5 x 2 cm (W x H x D). It is ideal for cards, folded notes, coins, receipts and small essentials such as a key or lipstick. To preserve its shape and hardware, avoid overfilling.
Q: Will UK banknotes fit flat and can it hold a smartphone? A: Most UK polymer notes up to £50 (≈146 mm) fit flat in a 15 cm wallet; some larger foreign denominations may need a slight fold. Due to its compact size, most smartphones will not fit—please check your device’s dimensions against the measurements provided.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.

Delivery & Returns
Q: What is the Chanel 2.55 Flap Wallet? A: It’s a compact Chanel wallet inspired by the iconic 2.55, crafted in black quilted aged calfskin with silver‑tone hardware and finished with the rectangular Mademoiselle turn‑lock. This piece features a black lining, multiple card slots and one zipped compartment. As vintage production details can vary, please review our photos and description for the exact configuration of this item.
Q: What are the dimensions and what can it hold? A: The approximate measurements are 15 x 10.5 x 2 cm (W x H x D). It is ideal for cards, folded notes, coins, receipts and small essentials such as a key or lipstick. To preserve its shape and hardware, avoid overfilling.
Q: Will UK banknotes fit flat and can it hold a smartphone? A: Most UK polymer notes up to £50 (≈146 mm) fit flat in a 15 cm wallet; some larger foreign denominations may need a slight fold. Due to its compact size, most smartphones will not fit—please check your device’s dimensions against the measurements provided.
Q: What is the difference between the Mademoiselle lock and the Classic CC lock? A: The 2.55 uses the rectangular Mademoiselle turn‑lock, a nod to Coco Chanel’s original 1955 design. The Classic Flap typically features the interlocking CC turn‑lock introduced later. This wallet carries the 2.55’s signature Mademoiselle lock aesthetic.
Q: What is the leather and how should I care for it? A: Aged calfskin is supple with a lightly distressed, vintage character. Keep it away from water, oils and prolonged sunlight. Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth; use a high‑quality neutral leather conditioner very sparingly, and avoid solvents or alcohol‑based cleaners. Store stuffed lightly in a dust bag, away from heat and humidity.
Q: Is it vintage and how is authenticity verified? A: Yes—this is a vintage/pre‑owned item. Chanel pieces from earlier years typically have a hologram serial sticker inside (and historically an authenticity card), while newer items can feature a microchip with no card. This listing includes a serial number tag; presence or absence of codes alone is not definitive. A Retro Tale authenticates every item through rigorous multi‑point checks of materials, construction, stamps and hardware.
Q: What does the serial number indicate and where might I find it? A: The serial number 11614713 suggests mid‑2000s production for Chanel small leather goods. On wallets, the hologram sticker is usually placed discreetly inside a pocket. Sticker placement and format can vary by model and year.
Q: How is the interior organised and does the layout vary? A: This wallet includes multiple card slots and one zipped compartment, with a flap closure. Exact slot count and pocket arrangement can vary slightly by season and year—please inspect our photos for the precise interior of this piece.
Q: Is it unisex and how can I style it? A: Yes—its minimalist black quilted design is unisex. Use it as a refined everyday wallet, a compact evening accessory inside a clutch or mini bag, or as an organiser in a larger tote. The Mademoiselle lock adds a classic, understated Chanel touch.
Q: Can I add a chain to wear it crossbody like a wallet on chain (WOC)? A: This wallet does not come with strap attachments or D‑rings. Third‑party conversions may risk damage and can affect resale value. We recommend using it as designed or consulting a professional before any modifications.
Q: What is included and where is it made? A: Inclusions vary for vintage/pre‑owned items. Please refer to the Accessories section and photos for exactly what’s included; this listing shows a serial number tag. The country of origin label indicates France for this piece.
