The Archive 

An icon from Chanel's golden era, this Vintage Chanel Medium Double Flap was crafted between 1991–1994, when Chanel hardware was still finished in luxurious 24K gold plating. Wrapped in buttery lambskin and finished in a sophisticated neutral beige, this is the classic silhouette that defined an era under Karl Lagerfeld. Complete with its original authenticity card and Entrupy verification, this is a timeless collector's piece that continues to set the standard for luxury handbags.

Condition Report

Very Good Vintage Condition (8.7/10)

The lambskin remains soft with beautiful structure and well-maintained quilting throughout. The iconic 24K gold-plated hardware retains a rich, vibrant finish with excellent shine. There is light wear consistent with a well-cared-for vintage piece, including gentle surface creasing, minor corner rubbing, and small areas of wear along the flap edges and piping, as shown in the photos. The interior is clean with light signs of normal use. Overall, this bag presents beautifully and remains an exceptional example of an early '90s Chanel Classic Flap.

Curators Perspective 

Few handbags have shaped luxury fashion like the Chanel Medium Double Flap, but the early '90s versions hold a special place among collectors. This era represents the final years of Chanel's 24K gold-plated hardware, a feature the House no longer produces. Combined with buttery lambskin, meticulous hand craftsmanship, and the iconic double flap construction, these bags embody the craftsmanship that made vintage Chanel legendary. The warm beige color is remarkably versatile—equally elegant with denim, tailoring, or evening wear—while remaining much harder to source than classic black. For collectors, this is more than a handbag; it's one of the defining investment pieces from Chanel's most celebrated production era.
