Lambskin Quilted Mini Rectangular Flap Black

The Chanel Lambskin Quilted Mini Rectangular Flap in black with gold hardware is one of the most coveted “Emblematic” pieces in the Chanel catalog. While often grouped with the Classic Flap line, it is technically categorized as a “Mini Classic Handbag” and differs from larger models by its single-flap construction.

Core Design & Material

• Material: Crafted from premium black lambskin leather, featuring a smooth, buttery texture and signature diamond-quilted stitching.

• Signature Hardware: Features polished gold-tone metal, including the iconic CC turn-lock closure. Modern versions are typically microchipped rather than using traditional authenticity cards.

• Single Flap Construction: Unlike the Small, Medium, or Large sizes, the Mini Rectangular features a single flap, which provides a lighter weight and easier access to the interior.

• Grommet Detail: This model features two grommets at the top instead of four, meaning the chain cannot be doubled up for a short shoulder carry; it is primarily designed for crossbody or long shoulder wear.

Specifications & Utility

• Dimensions: Approximately 20 cm W x 12 cm H x 6 cm D (approx. 7.9″ x 4.7″ x 2.4″).

• Interior Configuration: Lined in tonal black leather, the interior includes:

  • One main compartment.

  • One internal zippered pocket and one flat slip pocket.

• Exterior Features: Includes the signature rear “smile” pocket for quick access to slim items like cards or receipts.

• Capacity: Fits daily essentials such as a smartphone (most standard models), a cardholder, keys, and a lipstick.
