Q: How does a 40 cm Chanel choker fit on the neck? A: A 40 cm length is a classic choker fit that sits close to the base of the neck on most wearers. For comfort, measure your neck where the choker will sit and allow about 1–2 cm ease. Choker lengths typically range around 35–40 cm, so this piece offers a true choker look.

Q: Is the length adjustable on this Coco Mark Choker? A: This design fastens with a box clasp and has a fixed length of approximately 40 cm. It does not include an extender. Please refer to the measurements on this page and your own neck size for best fit.
Q: Is this necklace solid gold or gold-plated? A: Chanel costume jewellery is traditionally crafted from gold‑tone plated base metals rather than solid gold. Expect a high‑quality fashion finish, not a precious‑metal hallmark. ([antiquetrader.com](https://www.antiquetrader.com/collectibles/chanel-costume-jewelry))
Q: How should I care for this vintage Chanel choker to keep it looking its best? A: Keep it dry and avoid contact with water, perfume, lotions, and cleaning agents. After wearing, gently wipe with a soft dry cloth and store in its dust bag/box away from humidity. Do not use ultrasonic cleaners or chemical dips. ([chanel.com](https://www.chanel.com/us/fashion/care-instructions/costume-jewelry/))
Q: Will the gold‑tone finish wear with time? A: With normal wear, exposure to air, moisture and skin acidity can soften shine or wear the plated finish over years. Minimising friction, moisture, and chemical exposure will help preserve the surface. ([services.chanel.com](https://services.chanel.com/media/files/en_US_Care_instructions_for_Costume_Jewelry.pdf))
Q: What authenticity markers should I expect on vintage Chanel chokers? A: Many pieces carry a small round or oval plaque stamped CHANEL with era‑specific details such as season codes and country of origin; stamps evolved by decade and some authentic vintage pieces can be unsigned. Because stamping varies, authentication should assess construction, materials, logo, and wear patterns together.

Q: I see a hint of green on vintage gold‑tone jewellery. What is it and how can I prevent it? A: The green residue is often verdigris, a reaction that can occur on copper‑alloy bases like brass when exposed to moisture. Prevent it by keeping the piece dry and storing it in a cool, low‑humidity place; use a silica packet if needed. For removal on valuable vintage pieces, consult a professional to avoid damaging the plating. ([gadelles.com](https://www.gadelles.com/jewellery-care/))
Q: What comes with this item? A: Please see the product information section for the full list. For this piece, it includes a box and dust bag as shown in the product information.
Q: Can I wear this in the shower, at the gym, or while swimming? A: It’s best to remove costume jewellery before bathing, swimming, or exercise. Moisture and products like sunscreen, perfume and chlorine can dull or damage the finish. ([chanel.com](https://www.chanel.com/us/fashion/care-instructions/costume-jewelry/))
Q: Do Chanel boutiques repair vintage costume jewellery? A: Chanel provides client care for jewellery; availability of repair or service for vintage costume pieces varies by case and location. We recommend contacting your local Chanel boutique or Client Care for guidance, or ask us and we can advise. ([chanel.com](https://www.chanel.com/us/fashion/care-instructions/costume-jewelry/))
