Chanel Lambskin Shoulder Bag
Chanel lambskin leather is known for its soft touch feel and gentle luxurious look. Most of the bags introduced in the Timeless Classic Flap Series have been made with this material due to its unmistakably classical look. Although not the perfect choice for long-term, everyday use because of the inherent delicacy of the material, it has become one of the most popular and distinguished leather handbag lines on the market.
Chanel
The House of Chanel started in 1909 when Gabrielle Bonheur Chanel known as COCO opened her first store in Paris (31 rue Cambon Ave). In the early stages, Chanel focused solely on “haute couture” (high fashion) and ready-to-wear clothing pieces and hats (Chanel Suit), later adding jewelry, accessories and perfumes (No.5 de Chanel) to their collections.
In February 1955 – a historical date – Coco Chanel introduced a double flap handbag with a mademoiselle closure and a metal chain that would later become one of the most easily recognizable handbags in the world, with its name based on the date of introduction – “The 2.55”. Karl Lagerfeld joined the company in 1983 as chief designer and brought a touch of today
to this very classical brand. In 2003,Coco Mademoiselle was the new line celebrating younger generations and capturing new
audience with a softer approach. Over the last 100 years, Chanel became one of the most iconic brands of our time.
Today, Chanel is associated with luxury, distinguished taste and high social status.
