Perfect for race-day glamour or elevating a tailored blazer at cocktail hour, this vintage Chanel horse brooch in gold-tone brings refined equestrian charm to weddings, gallery openings and festive seasonal gatherings.
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 dimensions of this Chanel Horse Brooch? A: Approximately 3.5 cm high × 4 cm wide × 1 cm deep. Please refer to the Measurements section for full details.
Q: What is it made of—Is this solid gold? A: This piece is described as gold‑tone, which for Chanel costume jewellery typically means a plated metal rather than solid precious metal. Chanel also produces fine jewellery in solid gold, but this brooch falls under costume jewellery.
Q: Does it have a Chanel stamp and can that help date it? A: Many Chanel brooches carry a small oval or round signature plaque on the reverse that reads CHANEL and often Made in France; some eras also include season or year codes. Not every vintage piece is stamped, and the exact layout varies by period. Stamps alone are not definitive; construction, materials and finish are considered as well. We are happy to provide close‑ups of hallmarks on request.
Q: Is this piece authentic? A: Yes. Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously authenticated by our in‑house experts using a multi‑point review of materials, construction, stamps and overall craftsmanship. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can share additional photos or details on request.
Q: How should I care for a gold‑tone Chanel brooch? A: Keep it dry and away from perfumes, lotions and hairspray; put jewellery on after cosmetics. Avoid prolonged humidity and direct heat. Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth after wear and store it separately to prevent scratches. Do not use chemical cleaners or abrasive polishing cloths on plated finishes.
Q: Will the pin damage delicate fabrics? A: Brooches are best on sturdier fabrics like wool, tweed, denim and structured weaves. For fine silks or lightweight knits, support the area with a small piece of felt or interfacing on the inside, or pin through seams, lapels or thicker hems. Avoid repeated pinning in the same spot to minimise stretching.
Q: Can I wear this brooch on a coat, scarf or bag? A: Absolutely. It looks elegant on lapels, hats and structured coats. On scarves, pin near a rolled edge or through multiple layers for stability. If using on leather goods, consider fastening through a strap or interior layer to avoid creating visible holes in the leather.
Q: Can it be worn as a pendant? A: Yes—many people use a small brooch‑to‑pendant converter to hang a brooch from a chain. This accessory is not included with the item; choose a converter that fits the pin orientation and width, and avoid overtightening to protect the plating.
Q: What is included with this item? A: The listing notes no accessories are included. If a box, dust bag or other extras are not listed, they are not part of the sale.
Q: What is the condition? A: Very Good overall, with light signs of use. The hardware remains shiny with light surface scratches, consistent with gentle wear.
