Perfect for brightening spring weddings, garden parties or weekend city strolls, this vintage Chanel silk scarf in multicoloured abstract print with subtle logo detailing lends a chic flourish to neck, hair or the handle of your favourite bag.
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 size is this scarf and how can I style it? A: This slim, long silhouette measures approximately 180 × 13 cm, often worn like a bandeau/twilly. It can be wrapped once around the neck, tied as a bow, used as a hair ribbon or belt, or wrapped around bag handles. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact sizing.
Q: What is it made from and where was it produced? A: It is crafted in silk and labelled made in Italy. Chanel silk scarves are commonly produced in Italy or France.
Q: Do Chanel scarves have serial numbers or authenticity cards like the bags? A: No—scarves do not carry the serial number stickers and cards used on Chanel handbags and small leather goods. Authentication for scarves relies on material quality, crisp prints and logo placement, and finishing details such as plump, hand‑rolled, hand‑stitched hems. Our specialists have verified this piece.
Q: How should I clean a vintage Chanel silk scarf? A: Always follow the care label. For vintage silk we recommend a trusted specialist dry cleaner. If the care label permits hand washing, use cool water and a pH‑neutral silk detergent, avoid soaking or wringing, then blot in a towel and lay flat to dry away from direct sunlight. Do not tumble dry or use bleach.
Q: What is the safest way to remove creases? A: Light steam is best. Use a handheld steamer at a slight distance or hang the scarf in a steamy bathroom. If ironing is necessary, use the lowest silk setting with a pressing cloth on the reverse and avoid direct, high heat.
Q: How should I store it to keep the silk in great condition? A: Store clean and fully dry. Fold flat or roll loosely with acid‑free tissue and keep in a cool, dry place away from sunlight and humidity. Avoid long‑term hanging and contact with rough jewellery or hardware that could snag the fibres.
Q: Can the colours bleed or transfer? A: Bright, saturated dyes may transfer if the scarf becomes wet or if washed at home. Keep it away from rain, fragrance, hairspray and lotions. If you are unsure about colourfastness, opt for professional cleaning.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed in the product information on this page. This listing indicates that no additional items are included.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this scarf? A: Every item is carefully examined by our in‑house specialists using multi‑point checks of materials, stitching, print quality, labels and overall construction. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can provide further details on request.
