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: How will this choker fit me? A: The necklace has a perimeter of approximately 43 cm (about 17 in). On most necks this sits as a short necklace or relaxed choker at the base of the neck/collarbone. Classic chokers are often 35–40 cm; we recommend measuring your neck and allowing 1–2 cm ease for comfort.
Q: Can I adjust the length? A: It fastens with a lobster clasp. Depending on where you attach the clasp on the chain, there may be a little adjustability. If you need extra room, a small necklace extender (around 2–5 cm) can be added by a professional jeweller; extenders are not included with this piece.
Q: What is it made of? A: This is Chanel fashion jewellery with gold‑tone plated metal rather than solid gold, embellished with glass rhinestones. It features a woven black leather chain and a rhinestone‑set CC logo with a leaf motif.
Q: Is the hardware real gold? A: No. Chanel costume pieces typically use plated base metals (some vintage eras used thicker plating), not solid gold. With wear over time, plating can show light surface rubbing—gentle use and proper storage will help preserve the finish.
Q: How should I care for the rhinestones and plating? A: Keep the necklace away from water, perfume, lotions and hairspray. Remove before showering, swimming or exercise. Do not soak or use ultrasonic cleaners. For light dust, use a soft dry brush. For stubborn marks, use a barely damp cotton bud with a little mild soapy water or isopropyl alcohol very sparingly, keeping the piece face‑down so moisture doesn’t seep behind the stones; dry thoroughly. Store in a dry, padded pouch away from humidity and direct sunlight.
Q: Can the interlaced leather in the chain get wet? A: Avoid getting the leather wet or applying oils/conditioners near the chain, as this can darken leather and transfer to the plating or stones. Wipe gently with a clean, dry cloth and store loosely coiled to prevent kinks.
Q: Are the stones original and secure? A: Our specialists inspect every item before listing; all stones are present and secure at the time of sale. As with all vintage rhinestone pieces, a stone may loosen over time. Skilled costume‑jewellery restorers can source and set matching vintage rhinestones if ever needed.
Q: Does Chanel repair vintage costume jewellery? A: Chanel boutiques primarily offer formal services for fine jewellery; assistance for fashion jewellery varies by boutique and availability. Many owners of vintage costume pieces use trusted third‑party jewellery repair specialists for stone replacement or clasp work.
Q: Is it suitable for sensitive skin? A: The exact metal composition of vintage costume jewellery isn’t specified and may contain small amounts of nickel. If you have sensitivities, limit prolonged skin contact, wear over clothing when possible, or apply a clear barrier to skin‑contact areas. Discontinue use if irritation occurs and consult a dermatologist if needed.
Q: What comes with the necklace? A: This listing includes the necklace only; no box or accessories are included unless explicitly stated under Accessories.
