In very good condition, it adds a refined statement to evening and special-occasion looks.
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 Vintage CC Charms 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 real gold? A: This is a piece of vintage Chanel costume jewellery, crafted from gold‑tone plated metal. It is not solid gold. The finish is designed to mimic the warmth of fine jewellery while retaining the durability of a base metal core.
Q: What are the measurements and how will it fit? A: The necklace has a length of approximately 85 cm. This longer style (often called a sautoir) typically sits well below the chest or can be worn as a statement piece over high necklines. The charms are substantial, measuring approximately 4 cm (height) x 3 cm (width).
Q: What are the specific design features? A: This vintage piece features a multi‑strand chain design, adding texture and volume. It is embellished with three iconic Chanel charms—typically the Interlocking CC logo—spaced along the chain for a balanced look.
Q: How does it fasten? A: The necklace secures with a spring ring closure. This is a classic, discreet clasp often used on vintage chains to ensure the focus remains on the decorative elements.
Q: What hallmarks should I look for? A: Vintage Chanel necklaces usually feature an oval or round stamping plaque near the clasp or on the reverse of a charm. This plaque typically bears the CHANEL signature, “Made in France” (or Italy), and a copyright/season code. Our listing photos show the specific stamps on this piece.
Q: Is it suitable for sensitive skin? A: Vintage costume jewellery plating may contain nickel. If you have metal sensitivities, we recommend wearing this piece over clothing (such as a turtleneck or blouse) to avoid direct skin contact, or monitoring for comfort during wear.
Q: How should I care for the gold‑tone finish? A: Vintage gold plating should be kept dry. Avoid contact with perfume, hairspray, lotions, and water. After wearing, gently wipe the chain and charms with a soft, dry microfibre cloth to remove oils. Store it separately to prevent the chains from tangling or scratching.
Q: Can the necklace be resized? A: Due to the complex multi‑strand construction, resizing this necklace is not recommended as it would alter the drape and spacing of the charms. It is designed to be worn at its full 85 cm length.
Q: What condition should I expect and what is included? A: This necklace is in Very Good Condition, meaning it has been well preserved but may show minor signs of vintage wear consistent with age. This listing includes no accessories; it does not come with a box or dust bag.
