Chanel Single Flap “Deco Matelassé” Bag – Black Caviar Leather – Gold-Tone Hardware – Vintage Series 13 – Iconic Quilting & Timeless Elegance

Description
A magnificent example of Chanel’s heritage craftsmanship, this Chanel Single Flap “Deco Matelassé” bag is crafted from durable black Caviar leather and finished with classic diamond quilting. The bag features the iconic gold-tone CC turn-lock, a hallmark of Chanel’s Maison, and the elegant leather-interwoven chain strap, allowing for both shoulder and crossbody wear depending on preference.
This model comes from the sought-after Series 13 (circa 2009–2010) era and remains one of the most desired single-flap styles due to its lighter weight, larger capacity, and effortless everyday versatility. The structured silhouette, meticulously quilted panels, and luxurious interior exemplify the signature Chanel aesthetic—timeless, understated, and instantly recognizable.
This bag displays a rich pebbled texture, and beautifully preserved gold-tone hardware that gives this bag an elevated and refined presence.
