In 1983, Karl Lagerfeld took charge of CHANEL's creative direction and embarked on a mission to pay homage to the legendary 2.55 bag created by its namesake founder. The result was his own inventive take known as the Double Flap. This offspring design boasted two remarkable additions that became just as iconic - a chain strap intricately woven with leather and a fastening adorned with interlocking CC initials. In this particular black diamond-quilted version, an extra flap bearing the same name serves the purpose of separating and safeguarding the main compartment. Interestingly, the larger exterior flap is said to conceal a zip pocket that was rumored to be used by Coco Chanel herself for concealing love letters. Each of these masterpieces is meticulously handcrafted at CHANEL's Ateliers de Verneuil-en-Halatte by highly skilled artisans, each having undergone a rigorous training process of at least four years. This intensive fifteen-hour, 180-step procedure ensures that every meticulous technique is mastered to perfection.
