Q: What are the dimensions of this bag?
A: This bag measures approximately 27 cm wide, 15 cm high and 7 cm deep. Use these measurements rather than those of a standard Medium Classic Flap, as different Chanel flap designs can vary in size.

Q: What can fit inside this bag?

Q: What is the serial number of this bag?

Q: How should I care for and store this bag?

Store it upright in a suitable protective pouch, with tissue paper around the strap to help prevent impressions. Avoid overfilling it, and seek specialist advice for stains or repairs.
