Q: Will this bracelet fit my wrist?
A: This bracelet is best suited to a wrist circumference of 15.5 cm or smaller. For the best fit, measure your wrist snugly with a tape measure and compare it with the perimeter listed on this page.

Q: Is this bracelet made from solid silver?
A: No precious-metal hallmark is listed for this piece. In the product information it is described as silver-tone metal, which means a silver-coloured fashion jewellery finish rather than solid sterling silver.

Q: How does the bracelet fasten?
A: It features Chanel’s interlocking CC turn-lock closure. When turned fully into place it should sit securely, but as with any vintage bracelet we recommend checking the closure before wearing it out.

Q: What condition is it in?
A: It is graded Very Good Condition. The hardware is described as shiny with light scratches, which is consistent with gentle pre-owned wear on vintage jewellery.

Q: Can Chanel costume jewellery tarnish or change over time?
A: Yes, vintage fashion jewellery can develop patina or light finish wear over time. Moisture, cosmetics, heat, sunlight and skin acidity can all affect the shine, so gentle handling and careful storage are important.

Q: How should I care for this bracelet?
A: Put it on after perfume, lotion and makeup have dried. Avoid water, humidity, heat and chemical cleaners, then wipe it gently with a soft dry cloth after wear and store it separately to help preserve the finish.

Q: Is this bracelet authentic?
A: Every item sold by A Retro Tale is professionally authenticated by in-house experts. For vintage Chanel jewellery, authenticity is assessed holistically through construction, finish, markings and overall craftsmanship rather than one detail alone.

Q: Does it come with a box?
A: Yes, this item includes a box, as noted in the product information.

Q: Where was it made?
A: The country of origin label for this bracelet is France.

Q: Is it suitable for everyday wear?
A: It can be worn regularly if treated with care, but because it is vintage jewellery we recommend removing it before showering, swimming, exercising or sleeping to help minimise wear.
