Q: What size is the necklace and pendant? A: The necklace has an approximate perimeter of 68 cm, so it will usually sit around the upper to mid chest depending on the wearer. The cross pendant measures approximately 8.5 cm in height, 6.6 cm in width and 0.3 cm in depth. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for the exact dimensions.
Q: Will this necklace sit long or close to the neck? A: With a 68 cm perimeter, this piece is generally considered a longer necklace rather than a close choker style. On most wearers, it will hang as a bold pendant necklace and works well on its own or layered with shorter chains.
Q: Is the green cabochon a gemstone? A: No, the centre detail is described as a green poured glass cabochon rather than a natural gemstone. Poured glass is a hallmark of many collectible vintage fashion jewellery pieces and adds rich colour and depth to the design.
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 condition is this necklace in? A: The overall condition is rated Very Good. It shows light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches consistent with gentle vintage wear. Please review the product images closely for the best impression of its current condition.
Q: Is this an authentic vintage Chanel piece? A: Yes, this is sold as an authentic vintage Chanel necklace. At A Retro Tale, vintage designer items are carefully vetted for authenticity, and product details are presented as accurately as possible for confident second-hand shopping.
Q: Does this necklace come with any extras? A: No additional items are included with this piece. Please see the product information for what is included with the necklace.
Q: How should I care for vintage Chanel costume jewellery like this? A: Handle it gently and avoid contact with water, perfume, lotions, hairspray and other chemicals, as these can affect the finish over time. After wearing, wipe it lightly with a soft dry cloth and store it separately in a soft pouch or jewellery box to help protect the gold-tone surface and poured glass details.
Q: Is this suitable for everyday wear? A: It can certainly be worn regularly, but as a vintage costume jewellery piece it is best treated with a little extra care. Occasional or careful wear will help preserve the finish, cabochon detailing and overall condition for longer.
