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 a fine jewellery piece or costume jewellery? A: This is a Chanel costume jewellery brooch in a silver‑tone finish, set with faux pearls, blue rhinestones and enamel. Chanel costume jewellery typically uses plated base metals and imitation pearls rather than solid precious metals or natural pearls.
Q: Are the pearls real? A: No. Chanel’s fashion brooches usually feature high‑quality imitation (glass) pearls to achieve their signature look while keeping the piece lightweight and wearable.
Q: How should I care for a Chanel costume brooch? A: Apply fragrance and cosmetics before putting it on; avoid contact with water, soaps and chemical cleaners; if it gets wet, dab dry with a soft, non‑pilling cloth; store it separately in a soft pouch; and avoid prolonged exposure to strong light and humidity. Regularly buff gently with a soft cloth only.
Q: Will the finish tarnish or can stones loosen over time? A: As with most plated costume jewellery, exposure to moisture, cosmetics and friction may dull the finish over time and can loosen rhinestones. Careful wear and dry, separate storage greatly help to preserve shine and stability.
Q: How secure is the pin and will it damage delicate fabrics? A: The brooch uses a locking pin for secure wear. On delicate fabrics (silk, fine knits), pin along a seam or onto a lapel/denim to distribute weight. You can also use a magnetic brooch converter to avoid pinholes while keeping the brooch securely in place.
Q: Can I wear it on coats, blazers or a handbag? A: Yes—brooches look excellent on structured fabrics like wool coats and blazers. If styling on a handbag, avoid piercing delicate leathers; attach to a strap or use a magnetic converter under the leather to protect it.
Q: How can I verify authenticity features on Chanel brooches? A: Many Chanel brooches have a maker’s stamp or oval plaque on the reverse that may include a season/year code and country of manufacture. Stamps and formats vary by era and are not the sole proof of authenticity. Every piece at A Retro Tale is examined and authenticated by our in‑house experts.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under product information on this page. For this piece, there are no additional items included.
Q: What are the measurements? A: Approximate height 3 cm and depth 1 cm. Please refer to the Measurements section on this page for full details.
Q: Do Chanel boutiques repair costume brooches? A: Repair availability for costume jewellery varies by boutique and region. Some clients have reported boutiques arranging stone replacements, but acceptance and time frames are at the brand’s discretion—especially for vintage, pre‑owned pieces. A reputable costume‑jewellery repair specialist can often help with rhinestones and clasps.
