CHANEL · Ultra Rare Beige Shimmer Tweed Jacket with Wheelbarrow CC Buttons • Rare Runway & Campaign Collectible
— Spring 2010 “Countryside” · Karl Lagerfeld —

// One of the collection’s most charming and recognisable jackets //

— For Spring 2010, Lagerfeld staged Chanel in a barn at the Grand Palais and made the entire exercise feel deliberately unserious: hay, wheat, clogs, rough textures, lace, ribbons, beige and ecru — all handled with enough precision that the joke never slipped into costume

This jacket captures that mood perfectly: refined enough to be unmistakably Chanel, but with just enough pastoral mischief to keep it from behaving too well.

// Size mark 38 FR / Condition: never worn //

• Crafted from neutral beige Lesage tweed, woven with fine silver and gold metallic threads

• The surface has a restrained shimmer rather than obvious sparkle, giving the pale tweed depth in changing light

• CC jewel buttons with miniature wheelbarrow motifs — yes, wheelbarrows; Lagerfeld knew exactly how far to push the countryside joke

• Ruffled black-and-ecru trim frames the collar and cuffs, adding movement and a slightly romantic note

• Inside, the jacket is finished with tonal silk lining; the traditional chain link at the interior hem gives the lower edge its familiar Chanel balance
