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 this Chanel chain belt? A: It is a vintage Chanel chain belt crafted in gold‑tone metal with a figure‑eight link design and a Coco Chanel medallion charm. It fastens with an adjustable hook closure for a customised fit and is labelled France. Please review the photos for exact details.
Q: What does size 90 mean and how will it fit? A: Size 90 indicates an approximate overall length of 90 cm (about 35.4 inches). Because the hook can attach to different links, it suits waists up to roughly 90 cm and can be worn smaller. For best results, measure where you plan to wear it (high waist or hips) and compare to 90 cm.
Q: How wide is the chain and will it fit through belt loops? A: The chain is about 2 cm wide (around 0.8 inches). Chain belts are commonly styled over dresses, knitwear or blazers, and can also be worn with sturdy denim loops. Fit through loops varies by garment; avoid delicate fabrics that could snag on metal links.
Q: Is it adjustable and can it be worn high on the waist or low on the hips? A: Yes. The hook‑and‑link closure allows you to secure the belt at any suitable link, so you can wear it cinched at the waist or slung lower on the hips and adjust the medallion drape to taste.
Q: Can this chain belt be worn as a necklace? A: Many Chanel chain belts can be styled as necklaces depending on length and hardware. At approximately 90 cm, this piece can be layered as a long necklace on some wearers. Always check comfort and balance before wearing it around the neck.
Q: Does a Chanel chain belt have a serial number or date code? A: No. Chanel chain belts fall under the brand’s costume jewellery and typically feature hallmarks (such as an oval CHANEL plaque or stamped hook with CHANEL and country of origin) rather than the serial number stickers used for handbags. A Retro Tale authenticates every item through multi‑point checks of materials, construction and markings.
Q: What is it made from and how should I care for it? A: It is gold‑tone plated metal. To maintain the finish, wipe with a soft, dry cloth after wear; avoid water, perfume, lotions, sanitiser and abrasive cleaners; and do not use metal polishes that can strip plating. Store separately in a pouch or box, away from humidity and prolonged sunlight.
Q: Can links be added or removed to change the length permanently? A: The belt’s length is easily adjusted by choosing different links with the hook. Permanent alterations (adding or removing links) should only be done by an experienced jeweller and may affect originality and future resale value. We do not recommend irreversible modifications.
Q: What is included with this item and what is its condition? A: This listing is in Very Good Condition with light signs of wear and is sold without accessories (no original box or dust bag). Please consult the photos and condition notes for specifics.
