Perfect for cocktail parties, gallery openings and festive dinners, this Chanel cuff brings instant polish. Rhinestones and gold‑toned hardware catch the light, while leather woven through the chain frames the central CC. The open cuff slips on easily to finish both tailored looks and sleek evening dresses.
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: Is this bracelet adjustable and what wrist size will it fit? A: This is an open cuff with an inner perimeter of approximately 15.5 cm and a width of 1 cm. The opening allows a small, one‑time tweak for comfort, but repeated bending is not recommended. For the best fit, measure your wrist snugly just above the wrist bone and choose a size close to 15.5 cm.
Q: How should I put on and adjust an open cuff without damaging it? A: Slide the opening over the soft side of your wrist and rotate into place rather than pulling the ends apart. If a minor adjustment is needed, warm the bracelet on your wrist and make a gentle squeeze once. Avoid flexing back and forth to protect the plating, leather weave and rhinestone settings.
Q: What materials are used in this piece? A: The bracelet features gold‑toned hardware with black leather woven through the chain, rhinestone embellishments and a central CC logo. As with most Chanel costume jewellery, the metal is gold‑tone plated rather than solid gold.
Q: Can I wear it in the shower or get it wet? A: No. Keep the bracelet away from water, humidity, lotions and perfume to preserve the plating, leather and crystals. Put jewellery on last and remove it first. Wipe with a soft, dry cloth after wear.
Q: How do I clean the rhinestones and leather safely? A: For rhinestones, use a dry, lint‑free cloth or a barely damp cotton bud to lift surface marks; never soak, steam or use ultrasonic cleaners. For the leather, gently buff with a dry cloth only and avoid conditioners or oils that could darken or loosen the weave.
Q: How should I store this bracelet? A: Store it separately in a soft pouch or box, away from direct sunlight and humidity. Avoid standard plastic bags unless they are specifically anti‑tarnish, and keep it from rubbing against other metal pieces.
Q: Is this bracelet nickel‑free or hypoallergenic? A: Chanel does not publish full material compositions for costume jewellery, so we cannot guarantee this piece is nickel‑free. If you have sensitivities, limit prolonged skin contact, wear it over a thin sleeve, or opt for precious‑metal pieces.
Q: How is authenticity verified? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is authenticated by our in‑house experts. Chanel costume bracelets typically feature a signature plaque or stamp with CHANEL and the country of origin; many later pieces also include season codes. Stamp style and placement vary by era and model, and we assess these details alongside materials and construction.
Q: What accessories are included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under Accessories on this page. For this bracelet, no accessories are included.
Q: Can Chanel replace missing stones or re‑plate this vintage piece? A: After‑sales support for vintage costume jewellery is at the brand’s discretion and varies by region and item age. You may enquire at a Chanel boutique for current options, or consult a trusted jeweller experienced with vintage costume pieces.
