Chanel 2.55 Handbag

Unique Manufacture
As with other Chanel models of authentic quality handbags, the shoulder strap consists of a braided chain, interwoven with a leather strap slotted through it for additional security. The rear of this Chanel 2.55 handbag features an open pocket: the whole Chanel handbag is closed by a single flap dropping over the main compartment and clipping shut. Additional extras include the ubiquitous Chanel dust bag for storage, an authenticity card, together with the handbag’s serial number as well as a hologram sticker whose number matches directly to the number features on the authenticity card. This Chanel 2.55 handbag retails at around $2,295 although a genuine authentic Chanel 2.55 handbag can be picked up for a starting price of around $1,200.

What is the Secret to its Name?
Every Chanel 2.55 quilted XL jumbo/maxi caviar black handbag with gold hardware, or A28600 as this model is known is finished to perfection, with the attachment of the gilt chain being the final step in its manufacture. To complete each Chanel 2.55 handbag takes three full lambskins. This Rolls Royce of all handbags, the figurehead of the Chanel handbag emporium, remains Chanel’s well-accorded classic since its 1955 debut – and therein lays the secret of its name: the Chanel 2.55 handbag was first launched in February, 1955. Since February is the second month of the year of 1955, what else could this treasured Chanel 2.55 handbag be called other than 2.55?
