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: Is this Chanel Coco Mark Turquoise Necklace authentic? A: Yes. Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously vetted by our in‑house experts and sold with our authenticity commitment. Shop with confidence.
Q: What is it made from? Are the beads real turquoise and is the metal solid silver? A: Chanel costume jewellery is typically crafted from plated base metal (here in a silver‑tone finish) with coloured glass or resin accents. Unless explicitly stated, it is not solid sterling silver and the turquoise elements are best considered turquoise‑coloured beads rather than natural turquoise. Please review the close‑up photos and contact us if you’d like us to confirm specifics for this piece.
Q: What are the measurements and how will it sit when worn? A: The necklace perimeter is approximately 62.2 cm. The CC pendant is about 2.5 cm (height) x 2.8 cm (width) x 0.4 cm (depth). Around 62 cm typically reads as a matinee length that sits mid‑chest on most wearers; the clasp allows minor adjustment for a shorter drop.
Q: How does it fasten and can I adjust the length? A: It features a lobster clasp on a curb chain. You can secure the clasp to different chain links for small adjustments. A jeweller can add a short extender if you need extra length; we do not carry out modifications in‑house.
Q: What hallmarks or stamps should I expect on a vintage Chanel necklace? A: Many vintage Chanel necklaces carry an oval or round plaque stamped CHANEL, often with “Made in France” and, on later pieces, a season/date code. Placement and format vary by era. Our listing photos show any stamps present on this necklace.
Q: Is it suitable for sensitive skin? Is it nickel‑free? A: Vintage and fashion jewellery may contain nickel. If you have sensitivities, consider wearing it over clothing or applying a clear barrier product on contact points. Discontinue use if irritation occurs and contact us for guidance.
Q: How should I care for the silver‑tone plating and turquoise‑coloured beads? A: Keep it dry and away from perfume, lotions, hairspray and hand sanitiser. After wear, gently wipe with a soft, dry microfibre cloth. Do not soak, use ultrasonic cleaners or chemical dips. Store it individually in a pouch/box, away from humidity and direct sunlight, to preserve the colour and lustre.
Q: Can I wear it in water or during exercise? A: We recommend removing plated costume jewellery before showering, swimming or workouts. Moisture, sweat and friction can accelerate wear to the silver‑tone finish and dull bead surfaces.
Q: Can it be repaired, replated or altered? A: A competent jeweller can usually replace or adjust a clasp, add an extender, or undertake gentle replating. Any alteration can affect originality and resale value, so we suggest preserving the piece as found when possible.
Q: What condition should I expect, what is included, and can I return it? A: This necklace is in Good Condition with light vintage wear possible unless noted otherwise. It comes with no accessories. Returns are accepted under our standard policy—please see our Returns page for eligibility, timeframes and conditions, and ensure the item is returned in the same condition received.
