ISBN: 9781035436453

The Chanel handbag is a global symbol of style, craftsmanship and status.

Since the release of the 2.55 in 1955, Chanel has produced a series of iconic designs - from classic staples to rare, limited editions. This beautiful photographic guide explores the full spectrum, from wearable art pieces like the beaded lucite Cage Flap and the discontinued Diana, to cult favourites like the So Black and the Graffiti backpack.

Learn about the Chanel bag's enduring influence on celebrity style and popular culture, and explore the craftsmanship that goes into each piece, from signature quilting and leathers to hardware, logos, and interior construction.

With expert guidance on authentication and navigating the resale market, this is a smart, practical resource for anyone looking to buy, collect, or invest in a true fashion icon.
