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 will this bangle fit? A: This open cuff is best for a wrist around 15 cm in circumference, as noted in the Product Information. To check, wrap a soft tape measure snugly around your wrist where you’d wear it; if you measure close to 15 cm, it should sit comfortably. If you are between sizes, remember that open cuffs are not designed for frequent bending.
Q: Is the cuff adjustable? A: Only very slight, one‑off adjustment by a professional is recommended. Repeated bending can fatigue the metal and accelerate wear to the gold‑tone finish. To put it on, slide the opening over the narrow side of your wrist and rotate into place rather than pulling the cuff wider.
Q: What materials is it made from? A: This vintage Chanel bangle features gold‑tone plated metal with black leather interlaced through the chain links. As with most Chanel costume jewellery, the exact metal composition varies by collection; expect a luxurious gold‑tone finish rather than solid gold.
Q: Can I wear it in the shower or during exercise? A: We recommend keeping it dry and removing it before showering, swimming or workouts. Moisture, perfumes and lotions can dull the plating, affect the leather and encourage tarnishing. Apply fragrance and cosmetics first, allow them to dry, then put on your jewellery.
Q: How should I clean and store it? A: Gently wipe the metal with a soft, dry, lint‑free cloth. For the leather, avoid soaking or using cleaners/conditioners; lightly dust with a dry cloth only. Store the bracelet separately in a pouch or box, away from humidity and direct light; anti‑tarnish tabs or silica gel can help keep it looking bright.
Q: How do you authenticate this piece? A: Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes multi‑point authentication by our in‑house experts. For Chanel costume jewellery we inspect materials, construction and the signature stamp or cartouche typically found on the interior (circular or oval plaques vary by era), cross‑referencing fonts and layout with known period marks. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell.
Q: Will the gold‑tone finish tarnish or rub with wear? A: All plated costume jewellery shows normal surface wear over time, especially at high‑contact points. Proper care—keeping it dry, avoiding chemicals and storing it separately—will minimise this and help maintain its shine.
Q: What signs of wear should I expect on this bracelet? A: It is in Very Good pre‑owned condition with light surface scratches and minor marks on the hardware. The hardware remains shiny. Please review the photos for close‑ups of the condition.
Q: What is included with my purchase? A: Everything included is listed in the Product Information section. This listing does not include additional items such as a Chanel box or authenticity card unless explicitly stated.
Q: Can the leather be refreshed or replaced in future? A: Specialist restorers can re‑weave leather through chain links and refinish metal plating on Chanel pieces. If you would like recommendations for trusted professionals, please contact us and we will be happy to help.
