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 is the size and how will it fit?
A: The bracelet has an approximate perimeter of 19 cm. Thanks to the link chain and lobster clasp, you can fasten it on different links for a slight adjustment. As a guide, measure your wrist and add 1–2 cm for comfortable drape; a 19 cm bracelet typically suits wrists around 16–17.5 cm depending on personal preference.
Q: Is this bracelet solid gold?
A: No. This is Chanel costume jewellery in gold‑tone metal, not solid gold. Chanel fine jewellery pieces are made from precious metals (such as 18k gold) and are a separate line from costume jewellery.
Q: Can I wear it in the shower, pool, or during workouts?
A: We recommend removing costume jewellery before bathing, swimming, exercising, or applying perfume, lotion, or hairspray. Moisture and chemicals can dull the finish and accelerate wear to the plating; if it gets wet, dry it gently with a soft, absorbent cloth.
Q: How should I clean and store it?
A: After each wear, wipe it with a soft, dry cloth. Do not clean with water, soap, or chemical cleaners. Store each piece separately in a pouch or its box, away from humidity and direct sunlight, to minimise scratches and tarnish.
Q: Will the gold‑tone finish tarnish or fade?
A: With time and normal wear, light surface marks and some softening of the plating can occur, especially on areas that rub against the skin or other jewellery. Careful handling and avoiding moisture/chemicals will help preserve the colour and shine.
Q: How do you authenticate this bracelet?
A: Every item at A Retro Tale is examined by specialists using multi‑point checks of materials, construction, weight, signature plaques and stamps, and overall workmanship. For vintage Chanel, period‑correct details (such as stamp style and coding) are reviewed, but stamps alone are never the only proof of authenticity.
Q: Can I date the piece from its stamp?
A: Many vintage Chanel bracelets feature an oval signature plaque; its layout can indicate the era or season. However, plaques and stamps can be replicated, so dating is best considered alongside expert assessment of build quality and components.
Q: Is the length adjustable or can it be resized?
A: You can clip the lobster clasp to different links for a small adjustment. Larger changes usually require adding or removing links or using an extender; non‑original modifications may affect collectability.
Q: What is included with this item?
A: Everything supplied is listed in the product information on this page. For this bracelet, the product information shows a box and a dust bag.
Q: I have sensitive skin; is this nickel‑free?
A: Vintage costume jewellery can contain base metals and may include traces of nickel. If you are sensitive, try short wear times at first and keep the piece clean and dry; wearing it over a thin fabric layer can also help.
