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 Vintage Necklace 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 materials is it made from? Is it solid gold? A: Vintage Chanel costume jewellery is typically crafted from gold‑tone plated base metal and may feature glass or resin details. It is not solid gold unless explicitly stated. This piece features gold‑tone hardware with a cross pendant and CC logo. Please review the photos and contact us if you’d like us to confirm any specific composition details for this exact necklace.
Q: What are the pendant dimensions and chain length? A: The pendant is approximately 7 cm (height) x 5.5 cm (width) x 1 cm (depth). The chain has an approximate perimeter of 70 cm. If you need the precise wearable range, drop length or exact pendant weight, just ask and we’ll measure it for you.
Q: How does it fasten? A: It secures with a spring ring clasp on a link chain, a classic closure used on many vintage Chanel necklaces. Please see the close‑up photos for the exact hardware.
Q: What hallmarks or stamps should I expect? A: Most vintage Chanel necklaces feature an oval or round plaque stamped CHANEL, often with “Made in France/Italy” and a season code; placement and format vary by era. This piece’s country of origin is France. Our listing photos show any stamps present on the necklace.
Q: Is it suitable for sensitive skin? Is it nickel‑free? A: Vintage and fashion jewellery may contain nickel. If you have sensitivities, consider using a clear barrier product on contact points or wearing it over clothing. Discontinue use if irritation occurs and contact us for guidance.
Q: How should I care for a gold‑tone plated Chanel necklace? A: Keep it dry and away from perfume, lotions, hairspray and hand sanitiser. After wear, gently wipe with a soft, dry microfibre cloth and store it separately to avoid scratches. Do not soak, use ultrasonic cleaners or chemical dips. A non‑abrasive jewellery cloth can be used lightly on metal areas only.
Q: Can I wear it in water and will the finish fade? A: Moisture can accelerate plating wear and dull the finish. Remove the necklace before bathing, swimming or exercising. With proper care—keeping it dry, avoiding cosmetics and storing it individually—the colour and lustre are better preserved.
Q: Can the length be adjusted or the piece replated? A: A jeweller can often add a short extender, adjust the clasp, or perform gentle replating. Modifications can affect originality and resale value. We don’t offer in‑house alterations, but we can recommend reputable specialists on request.
Q: What condition should I expect, what is included, and can I return it? A: This necklace is in Very Good Condition; light vintage wear such as micro‑scratches or minor plating rub may be present unless noted otherwise. Only accessories specifically shown or listed are included—this listing states no accessories. Chanel typically does not issue authenticity cards for costume jewellery. 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.
