My new to me 226! 16 series :) Does anyone know if it's possible to restore ruthenium? Mine is ok currently but just curious as Im sure it will lighten the more I use the bag.

I’m sure the people who offer gold re-plating of hardware could also offer ruthenium plating. (The issue is how well they could recreate the distressed appearance of Chanel’s ruthenium)

Am torn between 225 black reissue aged calf skin bags in black hardware and ruthenium hardware. I already have a dark clothing wardrobe, usually casual, bare minimum to no jewellery. Only contrast in wardrobe would be the jacket and shoes, don't have many special events to go to besides a wedding once in a while. Thoughts in terms of look and hardware wear&tear for keeping as a forever bag? Aside from Mulberry mini quilted cara bag, my other black bags are on the larger side so I don't really have a nice evening bag in black. I'm also 5ft tall, how many of you carry it crossbody and with chain drop, where abouts does the bag sit on your body?

I have 3 Reissues. Absolutely love them. Tough, beautiful.

New to me Reissue. I don't know a ton about Chanel bags. I have more LV and Gucci. I found myself gravitating to Reissues rather than classic flaps. Thoughts on this bag? I wear a lot of neutrals and figure I can wear it casually and also dress it up if necessary? It seems sort of "pearlized"? View attachment 6182293

Congrats!! I like this color! I’ve never seen it IRL but love it in the photo! Seems like a good neutral. What size is this?
