AN acoustic type of guitar made by a traditional European guitar manufacturer and styled in chic black and white by the French fashion House of Chanel as a striking accessory in its Spring/Summer 2009 fashion collection.More specifically, it is a “classical guitar” which has six strings, three of which are made of steel and the other three, nylon.
Crafted according to ancestral techniques, this technically sound instrument has a bevelled body for better ergonomics and a mahogany rosette sound hole that is highlighted with a white-silkscreened Chanel signature logo of intertwining Cs.
The borders are hand-painted and varnished to match the white Chanel insignia splashed indiscreetly across the back of this black guitar.
The accompanying strap is a sporty canvas one in elegant stripes of brown, white and black held together with black leather tabs embossed with the double C logo.
To hold and protect this luxury musical instrument, Chanel’s creative head Karl Lagerfeld offers a choice of an elegant white quilted leather case or a two-toned canvas case.
It’s the perfect musical instrument for the ardent music lover, who reveres luxury.
Lagerfeld’s latest fusion of music and fashion luxury does not steer much from the classic aesthetics of the Chanel brand and makes an outstanding showpiece in the study when not in use.
For Lagerfeld, the reason for this stand-out piece was because “Coco Chanel had an affair with Stravinsky, mine was with a guitar”.
