Introduced in 2019, the Chanel 19 was conceived by Karl Lagerfeld in collaboration with Creative Director Virginie Viard, from which it takes its name. An immediate success, it quickly established itself as one of the House’s most coveted and iconic designs. Combining timeless elegance with a contemporary spirit, the Chanel 19 perfectly embodies Chanel’s heritage while embracing a modern aesthetic. One of its defining features is its oversized, supple chain, crafted from a mix of gold-tone, silver-tone and ruthenium-finish metal, interwoven with leather. A gold-tone chain top handle adds versatility and elegance for hand carry. The signature interlocking CC turn-lock closure is reinterpreted in a larger, bolder and more contemporary form. Its chunky chain lends the bag a subtle rock-inspired attitude, while preserving the refined and sophisticated codes that have long defined the House. The iconic diamond quilting is also revisited in an oversized pattern, enhancing the bag’s distinctive character. Designed for everyday versatility, the Chanel 19 can be worn on the shoulder, crossbody or carried by hand thanks to its long chain strap and top handle. Like the legendary Timeless Classic Flap, it is available in several sizes. Presented here is the Small Chanel 19 in a sophisticated Navy shade.
