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 Chanel Chain Bracelet authentic? A: Yes. Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously vetted by our in‑house experts and sold with our authenticity commitment. Shop with confidence.
Q: What is it made from? Is it real gold? A: Chanel costume jewellery is typically crafted from base metal (often brass or similar) with a precious‑metal‑tone plating—in this case, a gold‑tone finish—not solid gold unless explicitly stated. Please review the close‑up photos and contact us if you’d like us to confirm any composition details for this piece.
Q: How do I know the year/season of this bracelet and what hallmarks should I expect? A: This piece is noted as from 1999. Many Chanel jewellery items from the 1990s feature an oval or round plaque near the clasp stamped CHANEL and a two‑digit year with a season letter (e.g., “99 P/A/C” or “V” for the continuous line). Stamps may appear on a small plate or directly on the clasp; placement varies by era and some pieces show “Made in France/Italy.” Please refer to our listing photos for the specific stamps on this bracelet.
Q: What are the measurements and how will it fit? A: The bracelet is approximately 18.5 cm in length with a width of about 1.5 cm and a depth of around 0.2 cm. As a chunky chain with a clasp, there is usually a little room to adjust the fit by fastening to adjacent links; if you’d like the exact inner circumference or a fit check against your wrist measurement, message us and we’ll confirm.
Q: How does it fasten? Is it secure? A: It has a clasp closure (see close‑ups for the exact style). Always ensure the clasp is fully closed before wear; for extra security you can add a discreet safety clasp or ask a jeweller to fit a short extender with a safety chain if desired.
Q: Is it suitable for sensitive skin? Is it nickel‑free? A: Fashion/costume jewellery alloys can contain nickel and aren’t guaranteed nickel‑free. If you have sensitivities, consider using a clear barrier product on contact points or wearing the bracelet over a thin sleeve. Discontinue use if irritation occurs and contact us for guidance.
Q: Can I wear it in the shower, while swimming or exercising? A: We recommend keeping Chanel costume jewellery dry and away from moisture, perfumes, lotions and hand sanitiser. Water, sweat and chemicals can dull or accelerate wear to the gold‑tone plating and hardware over time.
Q: How should I care for the gold‑tone finish and CC charm? A: After wear, gently wipe with a soft, dry microfibre cloth. Store it individually in a pouch or box, away from humidity and direct sunlight. Avoid soaking, ultrasonic cleaners and chemical dips; do not use abrasive polishes. Handle with care to prevent impacts on the CC charm and links.
Q: Can it be resized, repaired or replated? A: A competent jeweller can usually add a short extender, replace/adjust a clasp, tighten links and, if needed, perform light replating. Any modification may affect originality and resale value; we don’t offer in‑house alterations but can suggest reputable specialists on request.
Q: What condition should I expect, what is included, and can I return it? A: This bracelet is in Very Good Condition with minor signs of careful wear consistent with age unless noted otherwise. This listing includes no accessories. Returns are accepted in line with our standard policy—please see our Returns page for eligibility, timeframes and conditions, and ensure the item is returned in the same condition received.
