**CLOSED** Authenticate This CHANEL

[Jadesboutique]

Hello I found this purse at an estate sale of a wealthy lady and it's confused me. I looked up guides to tell if it's real and some things check out and some don't. It feels very soft the chain strap is a pretty heavy weight. It seems vintage no serial but did they ever make the C's like this?

Hello looking for information on this bag purchased in an estate. It has a heavy chain strap and feels soft but I cannot find this type of c logo. It is vintage and seems in really good shape. It has tassel too.
