The Wallet on Chain distils Chanel's most recognisable flap bag into a compact, cross-body format, and this example from the 16C (2015-2016) collection is finished with a striking translucent blue lucite CC turn-lock set against a light gold-tone frame - a graphic, collectible variation on the house's usual metal hardware.
Crafted in quilted lambskin leather, the bag closes through the lucite-and-gold CC clasp at the front flap and opens to a card-slotted interior with a rear zipped pocket. A chain-and-leather strap allows it to be worn cross-body or on the shoulder. It measures 18.5cm in width, 12.7cm in height and 3.8cm in depth (7.3in x 5in x 1.5in), with a strap drop of 61cm (24in).
According to the supplied product information, this bag is never worn, with protective plastic still present on the CC hardware. It is accompanied by its Chanel box, Chanel dustbag, felt, COA card, retail UPC and carebook, offered here as a first-owner piece for a customer seeking this distinctive lucite hardware detail.
