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: It measures approximately 5 cm wide, 4 cm high and 0.8 cm deep. It works well as a noticeable accent on a blazer lapel, knit, coat or scarf.
Q: What are the main design details? A: This vintage Chanel brooch features a Coco Mark star motif in gold-tone metal with rhinestone embellishments and a pin closure.
Q: How does it fasten? A: It secures with a classic pin fastening on the reverse. As with most brooches, insert it through the fabric carefully and close the clasp fully before wearing.
Q: What condition is it in? A: The overall condition is rated Very Good. There are light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light surface scratches consistent with gentle vintage wear.
Q: Does it come with a box or authenticity card? A: No. This piece is sold with no additional items included, so no box, pouch or authenticity card accompanies the brooch unless otherwise stated in the product information.
Q: How can I style a Chanel brooch like this? A: Chanel brooches are most often worn on a jacket or coat lapel, but they also look elegant on knitwear, the neckline of a blouse, a scarf or pinned high on the chest for a classic statement finish.
Q: Is it suitable for delicate fabrics? A: It is best suited to structured fabrics such as wool, tweed, denim or heavier knits. Very delicate fabrics can show pin marks more easily, so extra care is recommended.
Q: How should I care for vintage Chanel costume jewellery? A: Apply perfume and makeup before putting it on, avoid water, heat and harsh chemicals, and store it separately when not in use. To freshen it up, wipe it gently with a soft dry cloth rather than using soap or liquid cleaners.
Q: Is this an authentic vintage Chanel item? A: Yes, it is sold as an authentic vintage Chanel piece. A Retro Tale specialises in authenticated luxury vintage items, and pieces are reviewed for details such as materials, construction, finish and brand markings where present.
Q: Can I wear it every day? A: It can be worn regularly, but because it is vintage costume jewellery with rhinestones, it is best treated as a special accessory rather than exposed to heavy daily friction or moisture.
