Chanel Caviar Chevron Quilted Medium Boy Flap Green GHW

The Chanel Boy Flap in green is the bag Karl Lagerfeld introduced in 2011, named after Boy Capel, Coco Chanel's great love, and built as a deliberate counterpoint to the Classic Flap: harder-edged, more architectural, less overtly feminine. This one is the medium size in caviar leather with a chevron quilt, the V-shaped alternative to Chanel's usual diamond quilting, which runs in clean lines across the flap and is produced in smaller numbers than the diamond version.

Caviar is Chanel's grained, pebbled calfskin, and it is the practical choice: firm rather than soft, resistant to scratches and rain, and stable enough to hold the Boy's squared, structured shape over years of use. The green is deep and rich against the gold-tone hardware, warmer than the same bag in black or beige.

The Boy's signatures are all here: the wide CC push-lock clasp on the flap, the chunky chain threaded with leather that can be worn long or doubled to sit shorter, and the boxy silhouette with its defined edges. Inside there is room for the everyday essentials with a slip pocket. At Konesseur, every Chanel is authenticated before listing, and the UAE's 5% VAT keeps a piece like this below European retail.
