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 are the measurements and how does this brooch sit on clothing? A: The brooch measures approximately 4 × 5 × 0.5 cm. Its low profile sits neatly on blazer lapels, coats and structured knits without being bulky. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact sizing.
Q: What is it made from—Is it sterling silver? A: This is Chanel fashion jewellery in a silver‑tone finish with rhinestones. Chanel brooches of this type are typically crafted from metal with a plated finish and strass (crystals), rather than solid sterling silver. The finish on this piece is silver‑tone as stated in the product information.
Q: Will the pin damage delicate fabrics? A: Any pin can mark very fine or loosely woven fabrics. For delicate silks or open knits, avoid piercing the most fragile areas; instead pin through thicker seams or doubled fabric, or style it on sturdier pieces like blazers, coats or denim.
Q: How do I keep the brooch secure so it doesn’t come undone? A: Pin through a firm section of fabric (or a doubled layer) and add a small rubber earring back or brooch stopper to the pin tip after fastening to prevent slippage. This simple trick gives extra security for day‑long wear.
Q: How should I clean and care for the rhinestones and finish? A: After wear, gently wipe with a soft, dry cloth. Keep the piece away from water, perfume, lotions and hairspray, and avoid chemical cleaners or ultrasonic devices. Store it separately in a pouch or box, away from humidity and direct heat, to preserve the plating and rhinestone brilliance.
Q: Are rhinestones prone to falling out? A: The stones are securely set, but like all rhinestone fashion jewellery they can loosen if exposed to impact, moisture or repeated snagging. Handle with care, avoid knocks, and store properly. If a stone is ever lost, a skilled jeweller may be able to replace it—contact us for guidance.
Q: Is this piece authentic and where was it made? A: Yes. Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously authenticated by our experts. Chanel fashion jewellery generally bears a small signature plaque on the reverse; many modern pieces are marked Made in Italy. Our product information indicates this brooch was made in Italy.
Q: What is included with the purchase? A: Everything included is listed under product information. For this item, no additional items are included beyond the brooch itself.
Q: How can I style a Chanel CC brooch? A: Classic placements include the left blazer lapel, at the shoulder on a fine knit, securing a scarf fold, on a beret or hat band, or clustered with other brooches. If styling on delicate knits, take care to avoid stretching; pin through a reinforced area or doubled fabric for best results.
