Heidi Chanel 19 Replica Flap Card Case, AP1790 Slim

Eleven centimetres of Chanel 19 — style AP1790 takes the line's quilted flap down to card-case scale at 11 x 8.5 x 3 cm. The flap closure is the difference from an open card sleeve: cards stay put when the case is upside down in a bag.

• 11cm wide and 8.5cm tall, sized to the hand rather than to a pocket lining.
• The flap closes over the top, so nothing slides out when it is loose in a larger bag.
• 3cm of depth keeps cards standing rather than pressed flat against each other.
• Arrives with its box and dust bag.

Some people carry it alone on an evening out; others keep it as the fixed point inside a tote so cards never migrate to the bottom. Either way it is the smallest piece in the Chanel 19 line and the easiest entry to it. Heidi stocks the 19 from this case up to the full shoulder bag, so the quilting can be matched across sizes if that appeals.
