Delivery & Returns
Q: Is this Chanel Bow Brooch 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? Is it real gold? A: Chanel costume jewellery brooches are typically crafted from plated base metal (often brass) with a gold‑tone finish. This piece is described as gold‑toned and vintage; it is not solid gold unless explicitly stated. Exact composition can vary by season—please review the close‑up photos and contact us if you’d like us to confirm specifics for this brooch.
Q: How big is it and will it feel heavy? A: The brooch measures approximately 3.2 cm (height) × 6.5 cm (width) × 1.5 cm (depth). It offers a statement look without feeling overly heavy on most structured garments. If you’d like the exact gram weight or a photo on model for scale, message us and we’ll provide it.
Q: How does it fasten and is it secure? A: It features a traditional pin closure at the back. For extra security, consider a small locking pin back/stopper or a backing disc on the inside of the garment to stabilise the pin, especially on delicate fabrics.
Q: Can I wear it on coats, knitwear, scarves or bags? A: Yes—brooches work best on structured fabrics like wool coats, blazers, denim and canvas. On delicate fabrics (silk, fine knits), test in an inconspicuous spot and use a felt backing disc to prevent pulls. If wearing on a handbag, pin through a reinforced area or strap to avoid marking delicate leather.
Q: What hallmarks or stamps should I expect on a Chanel brooch? A: Most vintage Chanel brooches feature an oval or round plaque stamped CHANEL, often with “Made in France/Italy” and sometimes a season/date code. Placement and format vary by era. Our listing photos show any stamps present on this piece.
Q: Is it nickel‑free and suitable for sensitive skin? A: Fashion jewellery may contain nickel. If you have sensitivities, consider wearing the brooch over thicker fabric so it doesn’t touch skin directly or apply a clear barrier product to contact points. Discontinue use if irritation occurs and contact us for guidance.
Q: How should I care for the gold‑tone finish? A: Keep it dry and away from perfume, lotions, hairspray and hand sanitiser. After wear, gently wipe with a soft, dry microfibre cloth. Do not soak, use ultrasonic cleaners or chemical dips. Store it individually in a pouch or its box, away from humidity and direct sunlight, to preserve the finish.
Q: Can it be repaired, replated or converted to a pendant? A: A competent jeweller can often straighten/tighten the pin, replace a catch, and perform gentle replating if needed. Brooch‑to‑pendant converters are also available to wear it as a necklace. We don’t offer in‑house modifications; contact us for reputable specialists. Note that alterations may affect originality and resale value.
Q: What condition should I expect, what is included, and can I return it? A: This brooch is in Very Good Condition with light signs of careful wear possible unless noted otherwise. This listing includes a box. 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.
