Calfskin, along with lambskin, is a key material used in Chanel’s bags. Glazed, aged, smooth or quilted, calfskin dresses all the house classics and comes in every colour and with every finish. This brings us to the latest seasonal edition of the Mini Flap Bag in a new grained shiny calfskin finish.

There’s no quilting, embroidery or print, thus allowing the unique qualities of the textured yet smooth leather to shine through. Catching light in all the right angles, the grained shiny calfskin lends extra elegant sophistication to the otherwise already timeless style.
Measuring just 17.5 cm by 13 cm, the iconic double C metal clasp secures the single flap. It opens to reveal a main compartment for just the essentials, along with a flat pocket for cards and such. This Mini Flap Bag also comes with a single gold-tone metal chain interlaced with tonal leather, complete with two matching CC charms.
Priced at SGD8430, Chanel’s Mini Flap Bag in grained shiny calfskin is available in two colours. You’ll find it in classic Black, as well as Light Blue for that hint of colour.
