Preloved CHANEL Vintage Matelasse Lambskin Full Flap Black Gold Tone Hardware 1XXXX5

This Chanel vintage Matelassé full flap in black lambskin with gold tone hardware presents in great condition, showing gentle signs of use consistent with careful ownership. The exterior lambskin remains supple and well preserved, with the quilting retaining good structure throughout. There are no visible marks or stains to the leather. The gold tone hardware shows only slight hairline scratches, visible on close inspection, which is typical for a vintage Chanel piece and does not detract from its overall appearance.

The interior presents very well, with gentle signs of use only. The lining is clean, with no visible marks or stains, and all compartments remain intact and functional. Corners, edges, stitching, and the chain strap are well maintained. Overall, this is a well cared for vintage example, offering strong presentation and classic Chanel character.

Gold-tone hardware consistent with period-correct 24k gold-plated hardware used by Chanel during this production era.

Why We Love

We love the Chanel vintage Matelassé full flap in black lambskin with gold tone hardware because it represents Chanel at its most authentic and enduring. This is a design rooted in function, proportion, and clarity, long before luxury handbags became trend driven statements. The full flap construction reflects an earlier era of Chanel craftsmanship, prized for its simplicity and durability.

Executed in black lambskin, the bag offers a softness and depth that defines the Matelassé aesthetic. Lambskin enhances the quilting, giving it a refined, tactile quality that feels unmistakably Chanel. In black, the design remains timeless, working across decades without losing relevance. The gold tone hardware adds warmth and contrast, reinforcing the classic codes of the house while maintaining restraint.

What sets the full flap apart is its straightforward construction. Without the additional inner flap, the bag feels lighter and more direct in use, while still offering structure and security. The chain strap, threaded with leather, was revolutionary when introduced and remains one of the most recognisable elements in handbag design. It allows for shoulder wear that feels natural and balanced.

The vintage aspect is especially appealing. Earlier Chanel pieces often display sharper quilting, richer hardware finishes, and a sense of intentionality that collectors continue to value. These details contribute to a bag that feels considered rather than produced for volume.

Ultimately, this bag succeeds because it prioritises design integrity over novelty. It is elegant without being precious, practical without sacrificing style. For those who appreciate classic Chanel in its purest form, a vintage Matelassé full flap like this offers lasting appeal, quiet confidence, and a genuine connection to the house’s heritage.
