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 long is the necklace and where will it sit when worn? A: The chain measures approximately 60 cm, which is about 24 inches. This typically sits at a classic matinée length around the upper chest, ideal for layering over knits or tees.
Q: Is the length adjustable? A: The necklace closes with a lobster clasp. You can usually shorten the drop slightly by fastening into different chain links if the design allows, but there is no separate extender included with this piece.
Q: What is it made of? A: Chanel costume jewellery is generally crafted from plated base metals (gold‑ or silver‑tone) set with glass crystals or rhinestones and other decorative materials rather than solid precious metal. This piece features silver‑tone hardware with rhinestone‑embellished CC logo and charm, and is labelled Made in Italy.
Q: How should I care for rhinestone‑set Chanel costume jewellery? A: Put on after applying perfume, hairspray or lotions; avoid contact with water, soaps, detergents and chemicals; gently wipe with a soft, dry cloth after wear; and store each piece separately in a pouch to minimise scratches and wear to the plating and stones.
Q: Can I wear it in the shower, pool or while exercising? A: It’s best not to. Moisture, chlorine, salt and sweat can dull plating and affect rhinestone settings. If it gets wet, dab dry immediately with a lint‑free cloth and allow to air dry fully before storing.
Q: Will the stones fall out over time, and can they be replaced? A: With vintage rhinestone pieces, stones can loosen with wear. If a stone is lost, a Chanel boutique may advise on available options case‑by‑case, or a specialist costume‑jewellery restorer can often source and set a close match. Expect minor colour or cut variations versus the original on vintage items.
Q: How can I verify authenticity on Chanel necklaces like this? A: Look for the Chanel signature stamp placed discreetly on the back of the pendant or on a small oval plate near the clasp. Many pieces from the 1990s onward include a season/year code on the plaque. A Retro Tale rigorously authenticates every item using multi‑point checks; we’re happy to share hallmark close‑ups on request.
Q: What does “Made in Italy” signify on Chanel jewellery? A: Chanel costume jewellery is produced in both France and Italy. “Made in Italy” stamps became increasingly common from the early 2000s onward and refer to the workshop location, not a difference in quality.
Q: Is it hypoallergenic/nickel‑free? A: Chanel does not market its costume jewellery as nickel‑free. Those with known sensitivities should consider a barrier product on contact areas or opt for limited wear over clothing. If you have a nickel allergy, choose pieces advertised as hypoallergenic or consult a dermatologist for personalised advice.
Q: Does this item come with a box or other accessories? A: Everything included is listed under Accessories. This piece is sold without accessories. Please contact us if you’d like advice on suitable storage pouches or boxes.
