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: Is this Chanel Coco Mark Pearl Necklace authentic? A: Yes. Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously vetted by our in‑house experts and sold with our authenticity commitment. Shop with confidence.
Q: What is it made from? Are the pearls real and is the metal solid gold? A: Vintage Chanel costume jewellery is typically crafted from gold‑tone plated base metal with imitation (faux) pearls. The pearls are man‑made and the metal is not solid gold. This piece features cream‑coloured faux pearls in a double‑strand design with a CC logo detail.
Q: What are the measurements and how will it sit when worn? A: The listed wearable perimeter is approximately 46 cm. On most wearers, 46 cm sits around the collarbone. If you’d like us to confirm the exact drop or provide additional measurements, just ask and we’ll measure it for you.
Q: How does it fasten? Is the clasp secure? A: Chanel vintage necklaces commonly use a lobster clasp or spring‑ring closure. Please refer to the close‑up images for the exact closure on this piece, and ensure the clasp is fully engaged before wear.
Q: What hallmarks or stamps should I expect on a Chanel necklace? A: Many vintage Chanel necklaces feature an oval or round plaque stamped CHANEL, often with the country of origin and sometimes a season/date code. Placement and format vary by era. Our photos show any stamps present on this necklace.
Q: Is it suitable for sensitive skin? Is it nickel‑free? A: Fashion jewellery alloys and platings may contain nickel. If you have sensitivities, consider wearing it over clothing or using a clear barrier product on contact points. Discontinue wear if irritation occurs and contact us for guidance.
Q: How should I care for the faux pearls and gold‑tone finish? A: Keep it dry and away from perfume, lotions, hairspray, hand sanitiser and cleaning chemicals. After wear, gently wipe with a soft, dry microfibre cloth. Do not soak, use ultrasonic cleaners or chemical dips. Store separately in a pouch/box to prevent scratches and preserve the pearl coating and plating.
Q: Can it be resized, repaired or replated? A: A jeweller can often add a short extender, adjust/replace a clasp, or perform gentle replating. Any modification can affect originality and resale value; we don’t offer in‑house alterations but can suggest reputable specialists on request.
Q: Is it water‑resistant? Can I wear it in the shower or while swimming? A: No—moisture can dull the pearl coating and accelerate wear to the plated metal. We recommend removing the necklace before showering, swimming or exercising.
Q: What condition should I expect, what is included, and can I return it? A: This necklace is in Very Good Condition with light signs of careful wear possible unless noted otherwise. This listing includes no accessories unless specifically shown or stated. Returns are accepted under our standard policy—please see our Returns page for eligibility, timeframes and conditions, and ensure the item is returned in the same condition received.
