* 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 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 brooches like this are part of the Maison’s costume jewellery line and are typically crafted from metal with a gold‑tone plating and, depending on the design, resin or glass accents. They are not solid gold unless explicitly stated as fine jewellery. Please review our close‑up photos and contact us if you’d like us to confirm the exact composition on this piece.
Q: How big is it and will it feel heavy? A: The brooch measures approximately 4.7 cm (height) x 4.2 cm (width) x 1.0 cm (depth). It offers a noticeable yet wearable presence on most lapels and scarves. 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 pin closure at the back, typical of Chanel brooches. For extra security, you may add a locking pin back or a small rubber stopper on the pin, and/or use a backing disc or a piece of felt on the inside of the garment to stabilise the pin—especially on delicate fabrics.
Q: Which fabrics can I wear it on? Can I pin it to a bag or scarf? A: Brooches are ideal on structured fabrics like wool coats, blazers, denim and canvas. On fine knits or silks, test in an inconspicuous spot and use a backing disc to prevent pulls. You can also wear it on a scarf or a handbag; if pinning to leather, go through a reinforced area (e.g., a strap seam) to minimise marks.
Q: What hallmarks or stamps should I expect on a vintage Chanel brooch? A: Many vintage Chanel pieces carry an oval or round plaque stamped CHANEL, often with “Made in France/Italy” and, depending on era, a season/date code. Placement and plaque style vary by year. Our listing photos show any stamps present on this brooch, which is noted as France.
Q: Is it suitable for sensitive skin? Is it nickel‑free? A: Fashion/costume jewellery may contain base‑metal alloys that can include nickel. If you have sensitivities, consider pinning it over thicker fabric so metal doesn’t contact the skin directly. 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, hairspray, lotions, hand sanitiser and humidity. After wear, gently wipe with a soft, dry microfibre cloth. Do not soak or use ultrasonic cleaners or chemical dips. Store it separately in a pouch or box to minimise friction and preserve the plating’s lustre.
Q: Can the pin be repaired or the finish refreshed? A: A competent jeweller can often straighten or tighten a pin, replace a catch, and in some cases perform gentle replating. We don’t offer in‑house modifications, but we can suggest 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 otherwise noted. This listing includes no accessories unless specifically shown. 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.
