Hi everyone, I recently purchase a 21P silver metallic mini flap from the Chanel boutique. I feel so lucky that my SA offers the bag to me and by seeing it in real life, it is extremely beautiful, just like liquid diamond. I initially wanted a black/navy/grey rectangle mini flap, but the boutique only has some bright colors, for example, yellow, mint green, and purple. I feel like silver is a neutral color to me and I often wear silver/ white gold accessories, therefore, once the bag is shown to me, I decided to take it back home. Everything went well until I saw comments about metallic lambskin and their experience with the leather. The reviews on the metallic lambskin are extreme. Some people mentioned that metallic lambskin is more durable than regular lambskin while others experienced that the metallic layer is peeling off after a couple times of wear. This is my first Chanel mini bag and I am wondering if I should exchange it for something else or should I keep it. Can anyone please share with me your opinions on the Chanel metallic lambskin especially in 21P, also any tips and tricks in taking good care of the metallic leather bag.
Any advice is appreciated, thank you so much!
. I brought her in today, and you're right: complimentary (which, honestly, it should be: not to sound like a brat). FYI, and to anyone else out there who didn't know: I found out all bags released this year now have a 5 year warranty, which is news to me. I thought it was just 2 years. I wonder if it has anything to do with the overall decline in quality vs previous years.
! Meanwhile, I’m learning a lot here and really enjoy seeing all the beautiful bags and on the lookout for the next ones too.
