The Round Vanity Bag is one of Chanel's most distinctive vintage silhouettes, its drum-shaped case reworking a traditional travel vanity into a compact top-handle bag. This example also dates to the house's 1995 collection, sharing the same diamond-quilted, perfectly circular profile finished with a bold contrasting CC at the centre front.
Crafted in beige patent leather with a black patent CC appliqué, the bag is fitted with antique gold-tone hardware, including a twin-pull zip closure and a chain-and-leather woven top handle. It measures 22.1cm in width and height, with a depth of 7.9cm (8.7in x 8.7in x 3.1in), and a top handle drop of 7.9cm (3.1in). The interior is lined in tan leather.
According to the supplied product information, this vintage bag is in excellent condition: the bag retains its structure, though the exterior leather shows minor signs of wear resulting in marks, the zipper is slightly discoloured, and the interior leather shows signs of wear with press marks and minor scratching. It is accompanied by a Chanel box, Chanel dustbag, carebook and COA card, making this the more fully documented of the two examples offered.
