Perfect for weddings and evening soirées, this vintage Chanel pearl necklace adds refined shine with its signature CC detail. Effortless with a black dress or silk blouse, it brings polished elegance to cocktail parties, receptions and festive gatherings.
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: Are the pearls on this Chanel necklace genuine? A: Chanel costume jewellery typically features imitation pearls (often coated glass or resin) rather than natural or cultured pearls. This piece is described with faux pearls of varying sizes, consistent with Chanel costume jewellery design.
Q: What does “Coco Mark” refer to on this necklace? A: “Coco Mark” is a common term for Chanel’s interlocking CC logo, a house emblem introduced in the 1920s and used across Chanel jewellery and fashion pieces.
Q: What are the measurements and how does it fit? A: The necklace has an approximate perimeter of 44 cm and closes with a lobster clasp. The CC pendant measures about 2.5 × 2.5 cm with a depth of 0.3 cm. It sits around the base of the neck and layers well with longer chains.
Q: Will the silver-tone hardware tarnish or the pearls lose their lustre? A: With time, exposure to air, moisture and skin acidity can dull the metal finish and wear the coating on costume pearls. Store the necklace dry, avoid humidity, and wipe it gently after wear to help preserve shine.
Q: How should I clean this Chanel pearl necklace? A: After each wear, wipe gently with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. For light residue, you may use a barely damp cotton swab on metal only, then dry immediately. Avoid soaking, chemicals, ultrasonic cleaners, and abrasive polishing cloths. Keep away from perfume, lotions, hairspray and saltwater.
Q: How can I tell if a Chanel necklace is authentic? A: Authentic Chanel jewellery typically has a signature mark on an oval or circular plate near the clasp or a precise laser etching on the piece. Stamps usually include CHANEL, country of manufacture (France/Italy) and a season/year code that has evolved over time. Stamps alone are not definitive; at A Retro Tale every item is authenticated by in‑house experts using multi‑point checks.
Q: Is the length adjustable? A: The listed perimeter is approximately 44 cm. If there is no extender chain shown in the product images or product information, the length is not adjustable as sold. A jeweller can add a removable extender if you prefer extra drop.
Q: Can I wear it in the shower or while applying perfume? A: It’s best to remove the necklace before bathing, swimming or exercising. Apply perfume, lotions and hairspray first, let them dry completely, then put on the necklace to minimise contact with chemicals and moisture.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under the product information on this page. If a box, dust pouch or other extras are not shown there, they are not included.
Q: What is the condition of this vintage piece? A: Very Good overall. There is a minor mark on one pearl, and the silver-tone hardware remains shiny with light scratches consistent with gentle wear and age.
