The reissue flap is one of the hardest for us to source pre-owned in mint condition. Boutique Patina deliberately sets out to find only the most well-preserved reissues with creased bottoms (as they come from the boutique) and no creasing on the front or back panels as they often do. The bags we procure for this line are often not yet broken in, like this one.
For 20 years, Boutique Patina has specialized in sourcing and curating the most pristine vintage and collectible accessories by searching closets around the world.
Produced in 2011, nearly 15 years old and in stunning condition.
The reissue ligne is known and coveted by Chanel lovers as the original Chanel classic model, before the interlocking CC's were released. The rectangular mademoiselle lock, quilted aged calfskin and aged bijoux chain are hallmarks of this original.
The classic 2.55 reissue flap is the first classic flap made by Coco Chanel. Hailed by enthusiasts, it's released season after season, first made in 1955.
The original aged calfskin reissue flaps have the thick, distressed and chewy calfskin leather, a leather truly superior to caviar calfskin but with more give to the panels.
