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 length and how does this Chanel necklace sit when worn? A: The chain is approximately 86 cm, so it wears as a long necklace that typically sits on the upper to mid chest. Many choose to layer it with shorter chains; some may be able to double it depending on neck size and styling preferences.
Q: Is the length adjustable? A: It features a lobster clasp that allows small adjustments by fastening to different chain links. It is not designed for major length changes, but you can fine-tune the drop slightly for your outfit.
Q: What does “Coco Mark” mean on this piece? A: “Coco Mark” refers to Chanel’s interlocking CC logo. On this necklace, the CC charm is embellished with rhinestones, alongside BOY and textured rectangular charms for a playful, statement look.
Q: What does the “BOY” charm reference? A: It nods to Chanel’s Boy line, named in homage to Arthur “Boy” Capel. The Boy aesthetic appears across various categories, and the charm here brings that modern, graphic spirit into jewellery.
Q: What materials are typically used in Chanel costume jewellery like this? A: Chanel fashion jewellery is usually crafted from gold‑tone base metal with decorative elements such as glass crystals/rhinestones and sometimes resin or glass pearls. This piece is gold‑tone with rhinestone detailing and is not solid gold.
Q: How should I care for a gold‑tone, rhinestone‑set Chanel necklace? A: Keep it away from water, humidity, lotions and perfume; apply cosmetics before putting it on. Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth after wear, avoid abrasive cleaners or ultrasonic machines, and store it separately in a soft pouch to minimise scratches and crystal loosening.
Q: I have sensitive skin—does Chanel costume jewellery contain nickel? A: Fashion jewellery is made from base‑metal alloys that may contain trace nickel. If you are nickel‑sensitive, consider limiting wear time, creating a barrier with clear hypoallergenic coating on contact areas, and monitoring your skin’s reaction.
Q: How can I tell if a Chanel necklace is authentic? A: Genuine Chanel jewellery usually has a discreet CHANEL signature stamp that can be on an oval or round tag near the clasp or on the back of a charm, with stamp styles varying by production era. At A Retro Tale, every item is authenticated by experts using multi‑point checks of materials, construction, stamps and overall quality, and we stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell.
Q: Will the rhinestones fall out over time? A: Well‑cared‑for pieces last for years, but crystals can loosen if exposed to moisture, perfume, heat or strong impacts. Follow the care steps above; if a stone ever loosens, consult a jeweller experienced with costume jewellery for secure re‑setting.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed in the product information section on this page. If a branded box, dust bag or extra components are not listed there, they are not included.
