Chanel Coco Mark Pearl Necklace

Q: What are the key design details of this Chanel Coco Mark Pearl Necklace?
A: This vintage Chanel necklace features gold-tone metal, a multi-strand chain, a crystal-embellished CC logo, a medallion pendant with stone embellishments and a faux pearl drop, plus a lobster clasp closure.

Q: What is the necklace length?
A: The necklace has an approximately 40 cm perimeter, so it sits as a short necklace around the neckline. Fit can vary slightly depending on personal proportions, so we recommend comparing the measurement with a necklace you already wear and love.

Q: Are the pearls real?
A: This piece features faux pearls rather than natural pearls, which is in keeping with Chanel’s well-known fashion jewellery aesthetic. Faux pearls are a classic part of Chanel’s costume jewellery history and give the necklace its iconic vintage look.

Q: Is this necklace suitable for everyday wear or better for occasions?
A: It can work for both, but it is especially well suited to dressier styling. The multi-strand construction, crystal details and statement pendant make it ideal for evenings, events and elevated daywear, while still pairing beautifully with simple knitwear, tailoring or an open-collar shirt.

Q: What condition is this necklace in?
A: It is listed in Very Good Condition with light traces of use. The hardware remains shiny with light scratches, which is normal for a vintage pre-owned Chanel jewellery piece and consistent with gentle prior wear.

Q: How should I care for this vintage Chanel necklace?
A: To help preserve the finish, avoid water, perfume, lotions, soap and cleaning chemicals. Put the necklace on after applying cosmetics or fragrance, wipe it gently with a soft dry cloth after wear, and store it separately in a soft pouch or jewellery box to help minimise scratching and humidity exposure.

Q: How is vintage Chanel jewellery usually authenticated?
A: Authentic vintage Chanel jewellery is typically assessed through a combination of construction quality, materials, signature details, plaque or stamp placement, hardware finish and overall design consistency. At A Retro Tale, all items are carefully reviewed for authenticity before sale.

Q: Does this item come with a box, pouch or authenticity card?
A: No. According to the product information, this necklace comes with no accessories. If an original box, pouch or card is not listed in the product information, it is not included with the item.

Q: What fastening does it have, and is it easy to put on?
A: It has a lobster clasp closure, which is a practical and secure fastening for regular wear. This style is generally easy to fasten and helps keep the necklace comfortably in place at the neck.
