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 brooch? A: This Chanel Coco Mark Rhinestone Brooch measures approximately 4.2 cm wide, 3.5 cm high and 1 cm deep. It is a noticeable statement size that still works well on a blazer lapel, knitwear, a scarf or a coat.
Q: How does it fasten? A: It features a classic pin fastening on the reverse. As with most brooches, it is best secured through structured fabrics or tightly woven knits for the neatest hold.
Q: What does silver-tone hardware mean? A: Silver-tone means the metal has a silver-coloured finish. It does not indicate solid silver, but it gives the brooch its bright, polished look.
Q: Is this fine jewellery or costume jewellery? A: Chanel brooches of this type are generally considered costume jewellery, created as fashion pieces rather than solid precious-metal fine jewellery. That is part of the appeal of iconic Chanel brooch designs.
Q: What condition is this piece in? A: This brooch is listed in very good vintage condition with light traces of use. The hardware remains shiny with light scratches consistent with careful wear and age.
Q: How can I style a Chanel brooch like this? A: A Coco Mark brooch looks especially elegant on a blazer lapel, coat, jumper, cardigan, scarf or the neckline of a simple dress. Because this piece is medium-sized and sparkly, it works best when you let it stand out against a plain fabric or solid colour.
Q: Can I wear it every day? A: Yes, but vintage rhinestone jewellery is best handled with a little extra care. Occasional or careful everyday wear will help preserve the finish, pin mechanism and stones over time.
Q: How should I care for vintage Chanel rhinestone jewellery? A: Put it on after perfume, hairspray and make-up, and avoid water, soap and cleaning chemicals. After wearing, gently wipe it with a soft dry cloth and store it separately in a pouch or box to help prevent scratches and protect the rhinestones.
Q: Does it come with a box, card or other original items? A: No additional items are included with this piece. Everything that comes with an item is noted in the product information, and this brooch is offered on its own.
Q: How do you authenticate a vintage Chanel brooch? A: Chanel brooches are typically checked for details such as reverse markings or signature plates, construction, finish, materials and overall craftsmanship. At A Retro Tale, each item is reviewed for authenticity before it is offered for sale.
