Perfect for weddings, cocktail evenings or festive dinners, this vintage Chanel bracelet adds refined sparkle with faux pearls and rhinestones. Finished with silver‑tone hardware and a secure lobster clasp, it slips elegantly on a wrist up to 17 cm, elevating tailored looks and occasionwear alike.
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: Are the pearls on this bracelet real? A: No. As is typical for Chanel costume jewellery, the pearls are imitation (faux) pearls paired with rhinestones. Chanel has long used faux pearls and glass elements in its fashion jewellery designs for their uniform beauty and durability.
Q: What does silver‑tone hardware mean—are the metal parts sterling silver? A: Silver‑tone describes the colour and finish, not the metal itself. It is a plated finish over base metal rather than solid sterling silver. Normal use can show light wear to plating over time, so store and handle with care.
Q: Will this bracelet fit my wrist? A: It is best suited to wrists up to 17 cm. If your wrist is smaller, the lobster clasp typically allows a snugger fit on available links. If you need extra length, a jeweller can add a discreet extender to lobster‑clasp bracelets; note that any alteration may affect originality and is not performed by us.
Q: Can I get it wet or wear it every day? A: Avoid water, steam, perfume, lotions and household chemicals. Moisture and cosmetics can dull rhinestones, weaken foils/adhesives and reduce the lustre of faux pearls. If it does get damp, dry it promptly with a soft, non‑pilling cloth and let it air completely before storing.
Q: How should I clean and care for the faux pearls and rhinestones? A: After each wear, wipe gently with a soft dry cloth. Do not soak, use ultrasonic cleaners or harsh chemicals. If needed, use a barely damp cloth to lift surface dirt, keeping moisture away from the backs of stones and metal joins. Store separately in a pouch to prevent scratches and plating wear.
Q: Will the silver‑tone finish tarnish or change colour? A: Plated finishes can show gradual wear or discolouration from skin oils, sweat and humidity. Minimise exposure to moisture, apply fragrance and lotions before putting the bracelet on, and remove it before washing hands, exercising or sleeping.
Q: Are there Chanel stamps or hallmarks on this piece? A: Many Chanel bracelets carry a signature plaque or stamp; on vintage pieces this may be a circular or oval plaque and, depending on the era, can include date/season codes. Placement varies by design. We authenticate every item and can provide additional images or details on request.
Q: I have sensitive skin—does this contain nickel? A: Vintage costume jewellery may contain nickel in base alloys. If you are nickel‑sensitive, limit prolonged skin contact, consider wearing it over a sleeve, or use a clear jewellery barrier product on contact points. Discontinue wear if any irritation occurs and consult a dermatologist if needed.
Q: What accessories are included? A: This item is sold as shown without accessories. Anything included will be listed in the Accessories section; for this piece it states no accessories.
Q: What does Very Good condition mean here? A: Very Good indicates light, gentle signs of wear consistent with age and use—such as minor hairline marks to the metal or subtle surface wear to faux pearls/rhinestones—without any major flaws and with full functionality.
