I am seeking a small chanel bag, with large diamond quilting and CC's
embossed on front.  It has a gold chain and tassle.  It comes in
leather or fabric.  I would be fine with either.  Can anyone find one
for me?  I've tried but don't have as much time or contacts as I would
wish to search......Thank you, Mary Shawn

Thank you....the first image is getting close but the leather is
grainy.....and I just wish I had a better image.....Let me look for
some others.  Diana, Princess of Wales, wore one often.  I think I can
get serial number.....Again, thank you.  Is there a manufacturer who
replicates Chanels?????  That occured to me, as well.
