The Mini Classic Rectangular Flap is one of Chanel's most enduring silhouettes, prized for its compact proportions and the diamond-quilted, interlocking-CC construction that has defined the house since the 1955 original. This example is finished in a tonal "so black" treatment, with black-toned hardware replacing the usual silver or gold for a deliberately understated, monochrome finish.
The bag is crafted from crumpled calfskin with a soft, textured hand, diamond-quilted throughout and fitted with a rear slip pocket. The front flap closes with the tonal CC turnlock, and the interior opens to a single leather-lined compartment. It measures 20.3cm in width, 12.7cm in depth and 6.4cm in height (8" x 5" x 2.5"), with a strap drop of 55.9cm (22") worn doubled at the shoulder or extended cross-body.
Offered in pre-owned, mint condition according to the supplied product information: the exterior shows some minor rubbing to the bottom corners but is otherwise clean, with partial plastic remaining on the hardware and a few hairline scratches to the exposed front CC clasp; the interior leather is clean with minimal signs of wear. The bag is accompanied by its Chanel dustbag and COA card, and presents as a versatile, low-key addition to a considered collection.
