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 crisp white example, from the house's 1995 collection, carries the maison's diamond quilting across a perfectly circular profile, finished with a bold contrasting black CC at the centre front.
Crafted in white 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 white leather.
According to the supplied product information, this vintage bag is in excellent condition: the bag retains its shape, with no plastic remaining on the hardware; the zipper closure and top handle hardware show some discolouration and minor tarnishing; the exterior patent leather has some yellowing due to age and has been professionally retouched; the top handle is a little loose; and the interior leather has light staining, scuff marks and overall signs of wear from use and age, while the date stamp sticker remains legible and intact. No accompanying accessories are confirmed in the supplied product information for this example.
