Perfect for wedding guest ensembles, black‑tie soirées and festive dinners, this vintage Chanel necklace with faux‑pearl CC pendant adds understated glamour. It also elevates a silk blouse for the office or a romantic date night, its silver‑tone finish and mother‑of‑pearl hues complementing both modern and classic wardrobes.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: Are the pearls real? A: No. This pendant features a faux (imitation) pearl, consistent with Chanel’s costume jewellery tradition of using glass or resin pearls with a pearlescent coating. Handle with care and avoid chemicals to preserve the lustre.
Q: What is the chain length and where does it sit when worn? A: The chain measures approximately 60 cm (matinee length), typically sitting around the top of the bust on most wearers. The drop when worn is about 30 cm. The pendant is roughly 2.5 cm wide and 1.5 cm deep—see the listing measurements for confirmation.
Q: Can the length be adjusted or an extender be used? A: The necklace fastens with a lobster clasp and the original length is fixed at about 60 cm. You can add a third‑party extender to gain a few centimetres if desired; an extender is not included. Choose a smooth, well‑plated extender to minimise friction and finish wear.
Q: What is the metal and finish? A: It is silver‑tone costume jewellery, meaning a plated finish over a base metal rather than solid sterling silver. Plated finishes are lightweight and elegant but require mindful care to maintain their appearance.
Q: Will the finish tarnish or the pearl coating wear? A: With time and wear, plating can fade and the pearl’s coating can dull, especially with exposure to air, moisture and skin acidity. Proper storage and avoiding contact with water, perfume and lotions will help preserve the finish and pearl lustre.
Q: Is it water‑resistant? Can I wear it in the shower or while exercising? A: No. Remove before showering, swimming or exercising. Water, sweat and steam can damage both the metal finish and the pearl coating.
Q: How should I clean and store it? A: After wear, gently wipe with a soft, dry, lint‑free cloth. Do not use jewellery dips, ultrasonic cleaners or abrasive cloths. Store separately in a soft pouch, away from direct sunlight and humidity, to avoid scratches and discolouration.
Q: Is this nickel‑free and suitable for sensitive skin? A: Chanel does not state that its costume jewellery is nickel‑free. Base‑metal alloys may contain nickel, so if you have sensitivities, limit wear time, consider a clear barrier product on contact points, and discontinue use if irritation occurs.
Q: Is the pendant removable to wear on another chain? A: The pendant is designed for the supplied fine chain. Whether it can be removed depends on the bail opening; compatibility with other chains has not been verified. Please contact us if you’d like exact bail measurements.
Q: What accessories are included? A: This piece is offered as shown with no accessories (no box or authenticity card), unless explicitly listed otherwise in the Accessories section.
Q: How do you authenticate this necklace? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously vetted by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, construction, hardware and signature Chanel markings. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can provide additional details on request.
