This vintage Chanel Lion Leather Chain Belt in black interlaced leather with gold-tone hardware is presented in very good condition, with light traces of use. Finished with a lion medallion pendant and hook closure, it adds a distinctive Chanel touch whether styled over a dress, blazer or knitwear for lunch dates, evening events or polished everyday looks.
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 size is this belt, and how should I check the fit? A: This belt measures approximately 95 cm in length and 2 cm in width. As vintage chain belts can be worn either at the waist or lower on the hips, the best way to check the fit is to compare the full length with where you plan to wear it and allow a little room for the hook closure and desired drape.
Q: Is the fit adjustable? A: Yes, the hook closure allows some flexibility in where the belt fastens along the chain. Even so, the overall wearable range is still determined by the full 95 cm length, so it is worth comparing that measurement with your own before purchase.
Q: What are the key design details of this Chanel belt? A: This vintage piece features a black interlaced leather chain, gold-tone hardware and a lion medallion pendant. The slim chain construction gives it a decorative, statement-led look rather than the feel of a traditional everyday belt.
Q: What does the lion medallion represent? A: The lion is one of Chanel’s most recognisable house symbols and is closely associated with Gabrielle Chanel’s Leo star sign. On vintage pieces, lion motifs are especially loved for their strong Chanel identity and bold, timeless look.
Q: What condition is it in? A: It is listed in Very Good condition, with light traces of use to the exterior. The hardware remains shiny with light scratches, which is consistent with gentle wear on a vintage item.
Q: What is included with this item? A: The product information states that this belt comes with a box. If any other original items are not listed in the product information, they should not be assumed to be included.
Q: Does it have a serial number or authenticity card? A: No serial number is listed for this item, and no authenticity card is noted in the product information. With vintage Chanel belts, buyers usually assess authenticity through a combination of hallmarks, materials, construction quality and overall finish rather than relying on one detail alone.
Q: How should I care for a vintage leather-and-chain Chanel belt? A: Store it flat or gently coiled in its box, keep it away from water, perfume, lotions and prolonged humidity, and avoid rubbing the hardware against other pieces. After wear, wipe it lightly with a soft dry cloth and handle the leather interlacing gently to help preserve the finish.
Q: Is this belt mainly functional or decorative? A: This style is best viewed as a statement belt rather than a heavy-duty trouser belt. Its slim 2 cm profile, chain construction and medallion detail make it especially well suited to styling over dresses, knitwear, blazers or high-waisted looks.
