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 Chain Bracelet 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? Is it solid gold? A: Vintage Chanel fashion jewellery is typically crafted from plated base metal with a gold‑tone finish. This bracelet features gold‑tone hardware with an intricate chain and a CC logo medallion charm. It is not solid gold unless explicitly stated otherwise. Review the close‑up photos and contact us if you’d like us to confirm any aspect of the composition for this specific piece.
Q: What are the size and measurements? Will it fit my wrist? A: The listed wearable perimeter is approximately 17 cm. For best fit, measure your wrist snugly and compare to 17 cm; as a guide, a 17 cm bracelet generally suits wrists around 15–16 cm for a comfortable fit. If you’d like us to confirm the inner length or provide tailored fit advice, just ask and we’ll measure it for you.
Q: Is it adjustable or can it be resized? A: This chain bracelet closes with a spring ring and is not size‑adjustable. A jeweller can often add a short extender to the clasp if you need a bit more length, but permanent resizing isn’t recommended for plated costume jewellery. We’re happy to advise on non‑invasive options.
Q: How does the clasp work, and is it secure? A: It uses a spring ring closure—gently pull back the lever to open, attach to the ring, and release to close. It’s a classic, secure mechanism for everyday wear; check that the clasp is fully engaged before wearing and avoid hard impacts.
Q: What hallmarks or stamps should I expect on a vintage Chanel bracelet? A: Many vintage Chanel pieces feature an oval or round plaque stamped CHANEL, often with “Made in France/Italy” and sometimes a season code. Placement and format vary by era. As noted, this piece is marked as France; our photos show any stamps present on this bracelet.
Q: Is it suitable for sensitive skin? Is there any nickel? A: Fashion jewellery alloys and platings may contain nickel. If you have sensitivities, limit direct skin contact, keep the area dry, consider a clear barrier product on contact points, and discontinue wear if irritation occurs. We can provide further guidance on request.
Q: How should I care for the gold‑tone plating? A: Keep it dry and away from perfume, lotions, hairspray and hand sanitiser. After wear, wipe gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth. Do not soak, use ultrasonic cleaners or chemical dips. Store it separately in a pouch/box, away from humidity and direct sunlight, to minimise scratches and preserve the finish.
Q: Can I wear it in water or will it tarnish? A: We don’t recommend exposure to water, pools, saunas or high humidity, as moisture can accelerate wear to plated finishes and encourage discolouration over time. Remove the bracelet before washing hands, exercising or swimming to prolong its appearance.
Q: What condition should I expect, what is included, and can I return it? A: This bracelet is in Very Good Condition with light signs of careful wear possible unless noted otherwise. This listing includes no accessories unless specifically shown or stated. 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.
