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 wrist size does this bracelet fit best? A: The bracelet has a perimeter of approximately 17.5 cm (about 6.9 in). For a relaxed drape, it typically suits wrists up to around 16–16.5 cm; for a snugger fit, wrists closer to 17 cm. If in doubt, measure your wrist and compare with the perimeter listed under Measurements on this page.
Q: How does the CC turn‑lock clasp work and is it secure? A: Rotate the CC turn‑lock by roughly a quarter‑turn to release the opening, then rotate it back fully to lock. It is secure when the CC is fully turned into the closed position. Avoid forcing the mechanism; gentle alignment before turning helps and reduces wear over time.
Q: Is this bracelet solid gold? A: No. Chanel costume jewellery is generally crafted from base metals (often brass or similar) with a gold‑tone plated finish rather than solid precious metal. The finish gives the rich yellow‑gold look while keeping the piece lightweight and wearable.
Q: Will the gold‑tone finish tarnish or fade, and how should I care for it? A: Normal signs of wear can develop on plated finishes over time. To preserve the shine, wipe the bracelet after wear with a soft dry cloth, avoid contact with water, perfume, lotions and alcohol‑based products, and store separately in a dry place (ideally in its box) away from humidity. Anti‑tarnish pouches or strips can help.
Q: Can this bracelet be resized or have links removed? A: Chanel does not typically offer resizing services for costume pieces. A skilled jeweller may be able to remove a link to adjust fit, but modifications can affect balance, finish and potential resale value. We recommend checking your wrist measurement against the listed perimeter before proceeding with any alteration.
Q: How can I authenticate a vintage Chanel bracelet like this? A: Most vintage Chanel costume pieces feature a small oval or round cartouche stamp reading CHANEL, often with MADE IN FRANCE/ITALY and a year/season code. Assess the stamp alongside overall construction, weight, quality of plating and clasp function. Stamps alone can be copied; a holistic review by experienced authenticators is best. Our team at A Retro Tale conducts a multi‑point inspection on every piece we sell.
Q: What do codes like 95A or 96P mean on Chanel jewellery? A: The two digits indicate the year (e.g., 95 = 1995) and the letter indicates the season: P = Printemps/Spring, A = Automne/Autumn, C = Cruise, and V = a continuous line. These markings help date the piece but should be read in context with other authenticity indicators.
Q: Is this bracelet suitable for sensitive skin or nickel allergies? A: Because vintage costume jewellery can contain nickel in its metal alloys, those with known sensitivities may experience irritation. If you have a nickel allergy, consider limiting wear time, creating a barrier on contact points, or opting for hypoallergenic metals. Discontinue wear if any irritation occurs.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This listing includes the box, as shown in the product information section. Everything included is always listed there; if an item is not shown in product information, it is not included—please contact us if you would like us to confirm specific inclusions.
Q: Why is the CC turn‑lock motif considered iconic at Chanel? A: The interlocking‑CC turn‑lock became widely used across Chanel designs from the 1980s onward and remains a house signature. This bracelet echoes that heritage with its CC turn‑lock closure and chunky curb‑chain look, making it an instantly recognisable vintage piece.
