Perfect for cocktail parties and elegant dinners, this vintage Chanel Coco Mark long necklace in gold-tone adds effortless polish. The iconic interlocking CC pendant and long chain layer beautifully over a slip dress or tailored blazer, bringing timeless Parisian glamour to any evening look.
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 chain and where will it sit when worn? A: The chain is approximately 60 cm (about 23.6 in), commonly called a matinee length. On most wearers it sits between the collarbone and upper chest, though this can vary slightly by build and neckline.
Q: Is this necklace solid gold? A: No. This is Chanel costume jewellery with gold‑tone hardware. Chanel’s costume pieces typically use a gold‑tone finish over base metal; only Chanel Fine Jewellery is crafted from solid precious metals. Please refer to the product information for materials specific to this piece.
Q: Can I wear the 60 cm chain doubled around the neck? A: 60 cm is generally not long enough to double comfortably. For a doubled look, opera‑length chains (around 70–90 cm) are typically used. We recommend layering this necklace with shorter chains for styling versatility.
Q: Is the CC pendant removable? A: This design is intended to be worn as pictured, with the pendant set on its bail. It is not designed to be detached or worn separately unless explicitly stated in the product information.
Q: What clasp does it have and is it easy to fasten? A: It features a spring ring clasp, which is quick to open and close and secure for everyday wear when properly fastened.
Q: How should I care for vintage Chanel costume jewellery? A: Keep it dry and avoid contact with perfume, lotions, hairspray, and cleaning products. Remove before bathing, swimming, or exercising. After wear, wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth and store separately in a pouch or box to prevent scratches and tangling. Do not use ultrasonic cleaners or harsh polishing pastes.
Q: Will the gold‑tone finish tarnish or fade? A: All plated finishes can show micro‑scratches or dulling over time, especially with moisture, friction, or chemicals. Following the care steps above will help preserve the colour and shine. Re‑plating is possible via a professional jeweller, though any modification may impact collector value.
Q: How is vintage Chanel jewellery authenticated? A: Many authentic vintage pieces have a small round or oval signature plaque or a discreet stamp, sometimes indicating season or origin. However, stamps alone are not sufficient—overall construction, weight, finish and components are assessed together. Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully authenticated by our team before listing.
Q: What comes with this necklace? A: Everything included is listed in the product information on this page. If a branded box, pouch or card is not mentioned there, it is not included with this piece.
Q: Can the length be adjusted? A: A jeweller can usually add a short extender to increase length, or remove links to shorten it. Any alterations should be done by a professional and may affect originality and resale value, so we recommend keeping all changes minimal and reversible.
