An elegant finishing touch for weddings, gallery openings or evening drinks, this vintage Chanel Coco Mark brooch adds playful movement and sparkle. The silver-toned bar with hanging chains, colourful circular charms and a crystal-embellished CC pin lifts blazers, dresses or a scarf from day to night.
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 dimensions and how does it sit on clothing? A: Approximately 7.5 × 4 × 1 cm. The bar design with hanging chains and colourful charms creates a vertical drop that looks striking on lapels, knits and coats. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact sizing.
Q: What is it made of? A: Silver‑tone plated metal with enamel details and a crystal‑embellished CC logo, plus colourful circular charms. Chanel costume jewellery is typically crafted from plated base metal rather than solid precious metal unless otherwise specified.
Q: How does the pin fasten and is it secure? A: It uses a traditional pin closure. Always ensure the catch is fully closed before wear. For extra security and to protect fabrics, pin through thicker areas (seams, lapels or lined sections) and consider a small felt backing or a magnetic converter under delicate fabrics.
Q: Will a brooch damage my clothes? A: Repeated pinning can leave tiny holes, especially in delicate weaves like silk or very fine cashmere. Choose sturdier textiles such as wool, denim or tweed, or reinforce the spot with a small piece of fabric/felt. Magnetic backings are a fabric‑friendly alternative for delicate garments.
Q: How should I care for and clean Chanel costume jewellery? A: Keep away from water, perfume, lotions and household cleaners. Put jewellery on last and remove first. After wear, gently wipe with a soft, dry cloth and store separately in a pouch or box, away from humidity and direct sunlight. Avoid abrasive cloths and ultrasonic cleaners.
Q: Do Chanel brooches have serial numbers or authenticity cards? A: Chanel costume brooches do not have serial stickers like handbags and are not typically sold with authenticity cards. Many pieces feature a maker’s plaque on the reverse stamped CHANEL and the country of manufacture; some include a season/date code that aids identification.
Q: Can I date this vintage brooch from its stamp? A: If a plaque is present, the format can indicate season and era (for example, a two‑digit year with a letter such as P for Spring or A for Autumn). Stamping styles changed over the decades, so dating should also consider construction and materials. We are happy to provide additional stamp photos on request.
Q: What is the condition of this piece? A: Very Good. There are minor marks on the hardware consistent with gentle wear. Please review the photos for close‑ups; our grading aims to be conservative.
Q: What accessories are included? A: No accessories are included with this item. Everything provided is listed under the Accessories section.
Q: How do you authenticate this item? A: Every piece at A Retro Tale is carefully authenticated by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, plating, construction, signature plaques and overall workmanship. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell.
