Ideal for cocktail hours or chic evenings out, this vintage Chanel bangle in black-and-white resin with COCO and CC details lends graphic polish to a little black dress or sharp tailoring. A slip-on style with silver-tone accents, it brings effortless Parisian flair to parties, gallery openings, and celebratory dinners.
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 size is this bangle and how do I check the fit? A: This is a closed, slip-on bangle with an approximate perimeter of 13.5 cm and a width of 2 cm. For a proper fit, measure around the widest part of your hand (over the knuckles with thumb tucked in) and compare with the listed perimeter, or measure the inner diameter of a bangle you already own. If you prefer diameter, use the simple conversion: diameter = circumference ÷ 3.14. Closed bangles must pass over the hand, so if you are between sizes, choose the larger for comfort.
Q: Can this bangle be resized or adjusted? A: No. Solid, closed bangles made from resin cannot be safely resized without risking cracks or distortion. Please compare the measurements with a well-fitting bangle before purchasing.
Q: What materials is it made from? A: Black and white resin with silver-tone hardware and COCO/CC logo details. This is Chanel costume jewellery, which typically uses non-precious materials such as plated metal, resin and glass. Chanel Fine Jewellery pieces are the ones crafted in precious metals like 18K gold.
Q: Is it water-resistant? Can I wear it in the shower or while swimming? A: It is not designed for water exposure. Avoid contact with water, perfume, lotions, and cleaning products. If it gets wet, dry it gently with a soft, absorbent, non‑pilling cloth. Prolonged moisture can discolour resin and affect plated finishes.
Q: How should I clean and care for it? A: After wear, wipe with a soft dry cloth to remove oils and fingerprints. Do not use water, soap, detergents, jewellery dips, or ultrasonic cleaners. Store pieces individually in a pouch or soft compartment, away from sunlight, heat, and humidity. Resin can scratch, so avoid abrasive surfaces and tight stacks that rub.
Q: Will the silver‑tone hardware tarnish or lose colour over time? A: With regular wear, plated finishes may show fine scratches or a natural patina. Minimising contact with moisture, cosmetics, and friction will slow this. Buff gently with a soft dry cloth only; avoid metal polishes and chemical cleaners.
Q: Is this a vintage Chanel piece and what markings should I expect? A: Yes, this is a vintage item made in France. Chanel costume jewellery often features a discreet signature or plaque on the interior indicating the brand and, on some pieces, a season or era. The placement and style of stamps vary by period and model.
Q: Can I stack it with other bracelets? A: Yes, but we recommend pairing with smooth pieces and avoiding tight stacks to reduce rubbing. Rotate wear to minimise friction, and store the bracelet separately after use.
Q: What accessories are included? A: No accessories are included with this piece. Everything supplied is always listed under the Accessories section on this page.
Q: How do you authenticate Chanel jewellery at A Retro Tale? A: Every item is vetted by our in‑house experts through multi‑point checks of materials, construction, stamping, and overall craftsmanship. We stand behind the authenticity of all items and can provide additional details on request.
