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: What are the measurements of this brooch and how noticeable is it when worn? A: The brooch measures approximately 4 × 5.5 × 1 cm. At around 5.5 cm wide, it makes a statement on a lapel, knit jumper or coat without feeling oversized for everyday wear.
Q: What is it made from? A: This is a Chanel costume jewellery piece with silver-tone metal and pink and clear rhinestones (strass) and a classic pin-back closure. Chanel brooches are typically crafted in metal with crystal/strass embellishments and are made in France.
Q: How can I style a Chanel CC rhinestone brooch? A: Try the left or right blazer lapel, on a tweed jacket, clustered on a knit, securing a scarf, at the shoulder of a dress, on a beret, or on a belt. You can also thread a slim chain or ribbon through the pin to wear it as a pendant. Avoid piercing delicate silks or leather if you wish to prevent visible holes.
Q: Will the pin damage my clothes? A: Brooches are best on thicker fabrics such as wool, denim or tweed. For delicate fabrics, pin along a seam or use a small piece of felt inside as reinforcement. Magnetic brooch converters are another option for fine fabrics, but avoid magnets if you have a pacemaker. Rotate placement to minimise wear.
Q: How do I fasten it securely? A: Insert the pin perpendicular to the fabric weave, close the catch until it locks, then give a gentle tug test. On thicker coats, angle the pin slightly upward for extra hold. Some users add a tiny rubber stopper on the pin tip under the clasp for additional security.
Q: How should I care for and clean the rhinestones and metal? A: After each wear, gently wipe with a soft, dry cloth. Keep it away from water, perfume, hairspray, lotions and household chemicals. Do not soak or use ultrasonic cleaners. If needed, lightly wipe the metal with a barely damp cloth and dry immediately, taking care around the stones. Store separately in a soft pouch, out of direct sunlight and humidity.
Q: Can missing stones be replaced or other repairs done? A: Many costume jewellery specialists can replace matched strass and service clasps. Chanel boutiques may offer repair services subject to assessment and parts availability, though options for older vintage pieces can be limited. If a stone loosens, stop wearing the brooch and consult a professional to prevent loss.
Q: Is this brooch nickel-free and suitable for sensitive skin? A: Chanel does not publish detailed metal composition for costume pieces, and many costume alloys can contain nickel. If you have a sensitivity, wear it over clothing rather than directly on skin, or use a clear barrier on the contact area and monitor for any reaction.
Q: How is authenticity verified and what markings should I expect? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is authenticated by our experts. Chanel brooches typically feature an oval plaque on the reverse stamped Chanel and Made in France, and some include a two-digit year with a season letter (P for printemps/spring, A for automne/autumn). Stamp styles vary by era, so absence of a season code does not automatically indicate a problem.
Q: What accessories are included with this item? A: This listing includes the brooch only; no accessories are included. Everything that comes with the item is always listed under Accessories on this page.
