Chanel Rare Runway Vintage Surf Flap Bag

This Rare Vintage Runway flap bag, from the 2002 Chanel Surf Line, is crafted from a durable textile material, showcasing an eye-catching blue and white wave-like print, reminiscent of classic Japanese art, with bold red accents. It maintains the timeless flap bag silhouette, secured by a silver-tone classic CC turn-lock closure. This vintage runway handbag is a highly sought-after piece of the 7 series (2002-2003). The bag features a versatile chain-link strap, interwoven with blue material, that can be worn on the shoulder or crossbody. The interior is lined in a light fabric and includes practical slip compartments for organization. This pre-owned bag is in very good preowned condition; it does have some signs of wear at some corners and edges, and a rub mark on the inside bottom of the bag (see photos). Comparison prices vary widely, based on condition, to as high as $27,800. Approximate Dimensions: W: 10" X H: 5 1/2" X D: 2 1/2" ********** Did you know? The artwork on this Chanel "Surf" Flap Bag is an unmistakable homage to "The Great Wave of Kanagawa";by Katsushika Hokusai. This is one of the most famous and recognizable works of Japanese art, created around 1829-1833 as part of Hokusai's series Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji. Karl Lagerfeld, the former creative director of Chanel, was known for incorporating unexpected and diverse cultural references into his collections.k
