The quilted lambskin still holds its shape.

Crafted in France during the 1980s, before Chanel's mass-market expansion under Karl Lagerfeld's later tenure. The matelassé quilting follows the house's signature diamond pattern, each stitch precise and deliberate. Gold-plated chain woven through black leather, a construction method rarely seen in contemporary production.

› The Vision

Produced during the 1980s when Chanel's atelier still operated at smaller scale. The gold-plated chain construction and lambskin quilting reflect pre-mass-production discipline. Serial 1162861 confirms authentication. The leather has developed natural patina over four decades.

› The Provenance

Authenticated vintage piece from Chanel's French atelier. Sourced in 8/10 condition with expected vintage wear. Includes original Chanel dustbag. 1980s Chanel in wearable condition is increasingly rare as collectors archive pieces rather than circulate them.

› The Dialogue

Worn with heritage trench coats for timeless layering, or paired with vintage Burberry pieces for collectors building archival depth. Explore more luxury bags for your collection.
