Different Types of Chanel Hardware

BlogUncategorized

The different types of Chanel hardware on bags plays the same role as buttons on clothing, or costume jewelry on a woman. It adorns a handbag, seduces you to walk into Chanel boutiques again and again, enriching your style and look, adding varieties to your collection and confusing you what to carry for the day. The “hazardous” consequences are endless…

From aged goldtone, black metal to combination designs that use leather, imitation pearls, strasses, and gemstones, we are curious and love to see different Chanel hardware designs.

Owning every single design Chanel rolled out is impossible, but admiring them through images is something we can do whenever we want. Similar to my other posts such as Different Types of Chanel Fabric and Non-Leather Material and Different Types of Chanel Leather, the list is non-exhaustive and subject to additions.
