Chanel Vintage Classic Double Flap – “Medium Tall” | Black Lambskin, 24K Gold Hardware (Series 2, c. 1991–1994)

Vintage Chanel is truly something special—and this piece is a perfect example of why.

An iconic vintage Chanel Classic Double Flap crafted from supple black lambskin leather and finished with rich 24K gold-plated hardware. This bag features the coveted “Medium Tall” (also referred to as “Large Medium” or “Tall Medium”) silhouette—similar in width to a Medium Classic Flap, but with a taller, higher-profile shape that offers a more structured, square appearance.

Based on the included authenticity card, this piece dates to Chanel Series 2, circa 1991–1994, a highly regarded era known for superior materials, heavier gold hardware, and exceptional craftsmanship.
