Vintage Chanel Black Lambskin Matelassé Diamond quilted CC mark 2 way Shoulder Bag

The Tanpopo says

This chic vintage Chanel bag from early 90s is a 2 in 1, yes you reasily it right — you get two styles from one bag!
It's undoubtedly the original inspiration of the current Chanel 31 shopping tote, but with a softer and curvier form.

Absolutely in love with the design: rounded top handle for an easy grip, diamond quilted leather, small CC logo and hidden gold chain in 24k gold plated hardware—iconic and elegant, true to Chanel's signature sense of fashion! All of these in a timeless style that you can use and treasure for a long time.

Size of this bag is perfect lady-like, not too big nor small to fit your daily essentials. If you'd like to use the snap button to close the bag, then put a little less! The bag fully open will fit even more.

The bag is also very light weight! There are two pockets inside so perfect for one that loves a little organization. 
I also like the flat bottom so it can stand on its own.

Thanks to its minimalistic chic design, this cute bag can be used for any occasions and easily transform from day wear to night wear pairing depending on how you style (top handle is cute for night out!)

The overall condition is also really good considering its age, and it's has not been retouched! Don't miss out.

Please be mindful that every vintage piece has led a previous life, and may tell its story through minor imperfection. I try to include as much details as possible through descriptions below and photos here.

Please message if you have additional questions. 

I hope this goes to someone that will truly treasure and love such a unique piece!
