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 will it sit on the neck? A: The necklace measures 40 cm (about 15.7 inches), which typically sits as a short necklace or choker near the base of the neck. For the best idea of fit, measure your neck with a soft tape or string to 40 cm and check where it falls before purchasing.
Q: Are the pearls real? A: Chanel’s costume jewellery traditionally features imitation (faux) pearls with a lustrous coating rather than natural or cultured pearls. This piece is described as a cream faux‑pearl design, which gives the iconic Chanel look while remaining lightweight and comfortable.
Q: What are the hardware and clasp details? A: As per the product information, it has silver‑tone hardware with a gold‑tone lobster clasp and two CC logos embellished with rhinestones. As a vintage piece, gentle signs of wear can be expected.
Q: Is the length adjustable or can I add an extender? A: This piece is listed at a fixed 40 cm. If you prefer a little extra drop, a removable necklace extender can be added by a jeweller or with a clip‑on extender. Avoid bending or altering the original clasp and chain to preserve the plating and structure.
Q: How should I care for the faux pearls and rhinestones? A: Handle with care and put the necklace on after skincare, perfume and hairspray. Wipe gently with a soft, dry, lint‑free cloth after wear, keep it away from water and chemicals, and store separately in a soft pouch to prevent scratches and protect the pearl coating and rhinestone settings.
Q: Will the plating or stones change over time? A: With vintage costume jewellery, light surface scratches, minor discolouration and occasional loosening of rhinestones can occur over time, especially with exposure to moisture or cosmetics. Following the care tips above will help minimise this and keep the piece looking its best.
Q: How is authenticity verified for Chanel costume jewellery? A: A Retro Tale authenticates every item through multi‑point checks of materials, construction, stamps and logos. Many Chanel pieces feature a small oval or rectangular hallmark plaque with CHANEL and, on some pieces, a season code; details vary by collection and era. We are happy to share additional close‑ups on request.
Q: What exactly is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under the product information on this page. Unless explicitly stated there, extras such as a box or card are not included. The item is sold as photographed.
Q: I have sensitive skin; is this suitable for me? A: Chanel costume jewellery uses plated base metals and exact compositions are not publicly disclosed. If you have sensitivities (for example to nickel), consider limiting prolonged wear, using a clear barrier on skin contact points, and ensuring the piece stays clean and dry.
