The Atelier

Desamp Atelier is a Paris-based atelier devoted to one house: Chanel.

The atelier

Founded in 2024, Desamp was born from a simple conviction: that the most extraordinary pieces of fashion deserve a second life, and that the women who carry them deserve a buying experience as considered as the bags themselves.

We work with private collectors, estates, and discerning consignors across Europe, North America and Asia to source pre-loved Chanel of impeccable provenance. Every piece passes through our atelier in the 1st arrondissement, where our specialists evaluate condition, authenticity, and history before it is photographed and presented to our clientele.

Our promise

We are a small team. We answer our own emails. When you buy from Desamp, you are buying from a specialist who has held the bag in their hands, examined every stitch, and chosen to put their name behind it.

A note from our founder

"I started Desamp because the resale world had grown loud, transactional, and indifferent to the objects it was selling. We wanted to build something quieter. A place where a Classic Flap is treated as the cultural artifact it is — and where the woman who carries it next is treated with the discretion she deserves."
