Perfect for weddings, cocktail parties and romantic dinners, this vintage Chanel pearl necklace brings luminous charm to evening looks. The faux pearl strand is anchored by a heart pendant adorned with a rhinestone CC and pink stone, finished in light gold-tone hardware. Style it with a silk slip or a tailored blazer to elevate any special-occasion ensemble.
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 necklace fit? A: The strand measures approximately 42 cm in perimeter and the heart pendant is about 5.5 cm high by 4 cm wide. On most necks it sits around the collarbone as a choker/collar-length piece. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact details.
Q: Are the pearls real and is the metal solid gold? A: This is Chanel fashion jewellery featuring faux pearls with light gold-tone hardware. It is not solid gold or fine jewellery; the finish is designed for style rather than immersion or polishing treatments.
Q: Can the length be adjusted? A: It fastens with a lobster clasp. Wearable length is approximately 42 cm with limited adjustability at the end ring. If you need extra length, a short extender chain can be added by a professional jeweller; avoid stressing the strand when fitting extenders.
Q: How should I care for the faux pearls and rhinestones? A: Put the necklace on after fragrance, hair products and cosmetics. Avoid contact with water, steam, lotions, household cleaners and high heat. After wear, gently wipe with a soft dry cloth and store individually in a pouch or box to prevent rubbing. Do not use jewellery dips, ultrasonic cleaners or soaps on fashion jewellery.
Q: Is it suitable for everyday wear? A: With mindful care, yes; however, vintage fashion jewellery finishes and pearl coatings can wear with frequent friction or moisture. Remove before exercising, showering, swimming or sleeping to preserve the plating, rhinestone settings and stringing.
Q: What if a rhinestone or pearl becomes loose or is lost? A: Chanel boutiques may assess and offer paid repairs subject to the piece and parts availability. Experienced jewellers can also replace rhinestones and rethread pearl strands when needed. A Retro Tale can share close-up photos or recommend specialists on request.
Q: How is this piece authenticated and can it be dated? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is checked by in‑house experts using multi‑point inspection of materials, construction, stamps and hardware. Many vintage Chanel necklaces carry an oval signature plate near the clasp; certain stamps include season and year codes (for example, 95 A for Autumn 1995). Not all pieces are marked, and stamp styles vary by era; we are happy to provide detailed images on request.
Q: Is it nickel‑free or hypoallergenic? A: Chanel does not publish full metal compositions for fashion jewellery, and vintage pieces may include base‑metal alloys. If you are sensitive to metals, consider a barrier such as clear jewellery tape on contact points or opt for fine jewellery with disclosed compositions.
Q: What is included with this item? A: A box is included, as listed in the product information. If an item is not listed in the product information, it is not included—please contact us if you would like us to confirm.
