The embodiment of timeless elegance and French sophistication - the Chanel Classic Double Flap Small in black lambskin with gold details is not just a handbag, but a piece of fashion history that has transcended generations.
The Chanel Classic Double Flap is probably one of the most sought-after bags in the world. With its elegant and timeless design, whose origins can be traced back to the 2.55 model from 1955, it embodies the vision of its creator Gabrielle "Coco" Chanel in every detail. The iconic CCLock, that today is inseparable from the Bag was only added later by the creative genius of Karl Lagerfeld - a reinterpretation that became a trademark.
Made from the finest black lamb leather, the Small Classic Double Flap impresses with its incomparable feel and quality. The characteristic diamond quilting, known as "Matelassé", was originally inspired by Coco Chanel's jockeys' riding vests and gives the Bag their distinctive structure. The gold metal accents create a perfect contrast to the deep black of the leather and underline the luxurious character of this timeless accessory.
The well thought-out construction is revealed in the functional details: A practical external compartment on the back offers quick access to small essentials. The secret zippered compartment, hidden under the front flap, was designed by Coco herself - according to legend, to discreetly store her love letters. The inner flap can be closed with a gentle push of a button and reliably protects the contents.
Inside has the Bag has several well thought-out pockets that ensure organization and clarity. The legendary chain with a braided leather strap allows it to be worn in different ways - over the shoulder or as a crossbody version - and underlines the versatility of this masterpiece of craftsmanship. The Chanel Classic Double Flap is not just a fashion statement, but an investment in a piece of fashion history that has retained its value for decades.
