DESCRIPTION Very rare and impossible to find Chanel "Chocolate Bar" Clutch in pastel mint green patent leather. For sale is a unique collector's piece — an archival runway clutch from the Chanel Autumn/Winter 2007 Ready-to-Wear collection, designed by Karl Lagerfeld. This piece is one of the most recognizable and sought-after designs in the vintage Chanel aesthetic. Runway history and provenance: Please note that this iconic rigid "Chocolate Bar" clutch was a key accessory in the Paris Autumn 2007 runway show and was presented by Karl Lagerfeld in multiple style variations in several key looks: * Look 3: Presented on the runway in this exact version in vibrant red patent leather (perfectly matches this listing). * Look 5: Presented on the runway (shown by Behati Prinsloo) in the identical model/style in black patent leather. * Look 22 and Look 57: The same rigid clutch style was widely integrated throughout the collection to complement Chanel's iconic tweed outerwear. Model Features: * Design: Iconic geometric "Chocolate Bar" quilting on a rigid structure. Features a vibrant and saturated pastel mint green color with a splendid mirror-like shine. * Material: High-end patent leather. * Hardware: Silver-tone palladium metal with the distinctive CC logo on the top snap closure. * Interior: Lined in thick and luxurious petrol blue satin. Features an internal metal plaque engraved with "Chanel. Made in Italy". Authenticity: * The original hologram sticker with serial number 11848532 is perfectly preserved inside. This corresponds to the 2006–2008 production period and aligns perfectly with the year of the runway collection. Details: * Designer: Chanel (by Karl Lagerfeld) * Collection: Autumn/Winter 2007 Ready-to-Wear (Défilé de Prêt-à-Porter Automne-Hiver 2007) * Measurements: 25 x 12 cm * Inclusions: authenticity certificates Condition — Beautiful vintage condition: The patent leather has perfectly maintained its shine. The corners and closure are in excellent condition. For maximum transparency, there are slight natural vintage nuances (please refer to the close-up macro photos): * Small dark dashes in some places and a slight debossed scratch. * Two light spots/shadows on the patent just below the top metal frame, visible only from a specific angle and in certain lighting conditions. * Very slight whitish tinges on the red satin lining due to the natural aging of the fabric. * Important: No DIY cleaning or restoration attempts have been made. The item is preserved in its 100% original and authentic state without any intervention. These features do not affect the splendid luxury appearance of this archival piece.
