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 is this Chanel cuff made from? A: It is crafted in gold‑tone metal, meaning a plated base metal (commonly brass) rather than solid gold. This is typical of Chanel costume jewellery and gives the rich gold appearance while keeping the piece lightweight and wearable.
Q: Will it fit my wrist? A: This cuff is best for wrists up to 19 cm in circumference. To check, wrap a soft tape (or a strip of paper) around your wrist just above the wrist bone, mark where it meets, and measure the length. For cuff styles, consider both your wrist measurement and how snug you prefer the fit—cuffs should sit secure without pinching.
Q: Can the cuff be adjusted or resized? A: Cuffs allow only very minor micro‑adjustment. Repeated bending can stress the metal and crack the plating, so we do not recommend attempting to widen or tighten it at home. If a slight tweak is essential, consult a professional jeweller and avoid frequent adjustments.
Q: How should I put it on and take it off? A: Rotate the opening to the narrow side of your wrist, then slide the cuff on sideways over the soft part of the wrist rather than pulling the ends apart. Remove it the same way. This minimises strain on the metal and preserves the plating.
Q: How do I care for the gold‑tone finish? A: Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth after each wear. Keep it away from water, lotions, perfume, and household chemicals. Do not use jewellery dips, ultrasonic cleaners, or abrasive cloths. Store it separately in a soft pouch to avoid scratches and contact with other metals.
Q: Is it water‑resistant? Can I wear it in the shower or pool? A: No—avoid contact with water, steam, sweat, and chlorine. Moisture and chemicals can dull or lift the plating over time. Put the cuff on last when dressing and remove it first when undressing or exercising.
Q: Will the gold plating wear off, and can it be replated? A: With normal vintage wear, high‑friction areas may show softening of the gold tone—that is expected for plated costume jewellery. Some independent jewellers offer replating, but results vary and it may cover or soften hallmarks and affect collectability. We do not offer replating and recommend preventive care to prolong the finish.
Q: How can I tell it is authentic Chanel? A: Vintage Chanel pieces typically carry a discreet signature on the interior—often an oval cartouche or stamp reading CHANEL, with Made in France or Made in Italy, and on some pieces a season/year code. Because stamps can be copied, authenticity is judged holistically by construction, weight, finishing, and markings. Every item at A Retro Tale is vetted by our experts; we are happy to provide stamp close‑ups upon request.
Q: What accessories are included with this item? A: This listing includes the bracelet only; no accessories are included. Everything that comes with the piece is always listed under Accessories on this page.
