Wallet on Chain

Name: Chanel Wallet on Chain Mini
Brand: Chanel

Catalogued July 2026

The Chanel Wallet on Chain, universally shortened to WOC, is a slim rectangular flap that combines a wallet and an evening bag on a long gilt-and-leather chain strap. It carries the house's signature diamond or chevron quilting and a front CC or Mademoiselle turn-lock closure, opening to card slots and compartments inside. Worn crossbody or held as a clutch, it is one of the most accessible ways into the Chanel flap family. The exact introduction date is not cleanly documented, with sources placing it between the late 1990s and early 2000s.
