Made for cocktail hours and evening soirées, this vintage Chanel Coco Mark necklace in yellow gold tone adds iconic polish to a little black dress or sharp tailoring. A striking finishing touch for weddings, gallery openings and festive parties.
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 is the chain length and how does it sit when worn? A: The chain measures approximately 80 cm, giving a long, elegant drop that typically sits around the mid‑torso on most wearers. It is ideal for layering with shorter chains or wearing over knitwear and dresses. Please see the Measurements for exact sizing.
Q: Is this necklace solid gold? A: No. Like most vintage Chanel costume jewellery, this piece is crafted in gold‑plated metal rather than solid gold. The plating delivers the rich yellow‑gold tone associated with vintage Chanel while keeping the piece light and wearable.
Q: What does “Coco Mark” mean? A: “Coco Mark” refers to Chanel’s iconic interlocking CC logo. In some resale markets—especially in Japan—the term is commonly used to describe pieces featuring the CC motif, such as this pendant.
Q: How secure is the closure, and can I adjust the length? A: It features a classic spring‑ring closure. You can clip the ring to a different chain link for a small reduction in drop, but the necklace does not include a dedicated extender. For more significant adjustment, a jeweller can add or remove links or provide an extender.
Q: Can the pendant be removed and worn on another chain? A: The pendant hangs from a fixed bail on the supplied chain. Whether it can be moved to a different chain depends on the bail opening and the end‑ring size of your alternative chain. A jeweller can advise or assist if you wish to swap chains without stressing the plating.
Q: How should I care for gold‑plated Chanel jewellery? A: Avoid water, perfume, hairspray, lotions, and household chemicals, which can dull or wear the plating. After wear, wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth and store in a separate pouch to minimise scratches. Do not use abrasive polishes or ultrasonic cleaners on plated pieces.
Q: Will the gold plating tarnish or wear with time? A: All plated jewellery shows surface wear with regular use. Proper care slows this process. If desired, a professional jeweller can assess polishing or re‑plating options in the future to refresh the finish.
Q: Is this necklace suitable for sensitive skin or nickel allergies? A: Vintage costume jewellery can contain base‑metal alloys that may include nickel. If you have sensitivities, wear over clothing, consider using a barrier product on skin‑contact points, or consult a jeweller about hypoallergenic clear coatings.
Q: How can I identify authentic Chanel jewellery marks on a vintage piece? A: Many vintage Chanel necklaces carry a small plaque or stamp with “CHANEL” and “Made in France”, sometimes with season codes, located on the pendant’s back, bail, or near the clasp. Stamps evolved over the decades, so details vary by era. Our team can provide close‑up photos on request.
Q: What exactly is included with this item? A: This listing includes the necklace only; no accessories are included. The piece is made in France and graded Very Good, showing minor marks and light scratches consistent with gentle wear, as noted in the Condition section.
