Black caviar quilting gives this Chanel chain tote a textured everyday format.

The Chanel Matelassé Caviar Chain Tote combines diamond-quilted black caviar leather with leather-threaded chain handles. Its 30.5 cm width gives the pattern space, while an open top leads to a black leather interior. It is in Very Good condition, graded 8/10, with carried wear, colour restoration and one missing hardware screw disclosed below. For a Cairo wardrobe in simple cotton or tailoring, assess that hardware detail alongside the tote's proportions before choosing it.

Tap to explore

The Vision ›

Wear the chain tote over a plain cotton shirt so the quilting and handles remain visible. Its shallow depth sits close to the body, while the black caviar leather works with cream, grey and unprinted navy clothes.

The Provenance ›

Gabrielle Chanel paired quilting with a chain strap on the 2.55 handbag in 1955. The combination became one of the house's lasting accessory references. This later tote opens those elements into a wider daily format, with black caviar leather across the body and leather-threaded chains forming the handles above its open top.

The Dialogue ›

What distinguishes this Chanel Matelassé Caviar Chain Tote?

The tote measures 30.5 by 23 by 6 cm with a 25 cm handle drop. One hardware screw is missing, and areas of colour restoration, carried wear and softened structure are disclosed; request the close-ups and a viewing to judge those details.

What condition and inclusions should I expect?

Very Good (SA Score 8 of 10). Carried wear and softened structure; areas of colour restoration; one hardware screw is missing and shown in the gallery. The reduced price reflects this repairable hardware detail. Sold Attire packaging and Lifetime Authenticity Guarantee.
