Delivery & Returns
Q: Is this Chanel CC Rhinestone Brooch solid gold? A: No. This is vintage Chanel costume jewellery in gold-tone metal with rhinestone embellishments, rather than solid gold. It is designed as a fashion statement piece with a classic pin closure.
Q: What size is this brooch? A: The brooch measures approximately 5 cm wide, 3.9 cm high and 1 cm deep. It has a noticeable statement look, but it is still easy to wear on a blazer lapel, coat, knitwear or scarf.
Q: What condition is it in? A: It is listed in Very Good condition with light traces of use. The hardware is described as shiny with light scratches, which is consistent with gentle wear on a vintage item.
Q: How should I wear it without damaging my clothes? A: It is best suited to structured fabrics such as wool, tweed, denim, heavier cotton and blazers with a firm lapel. For finer fabrics, pin through a seam or reinforced area, or add a small backing behind the fabric to help distribute the weight.
Q: Can I wear this brooch on delicate fabrics or silk scarves? A: Yes, but with care. On delicate silk or lightweight knits, the pin may leave a visible hole or cause pulling if the fabric is too fine. If wearing it on a scarf, fastening through a rolled edge or multiple layers usually gives better support.
Q: Can I pin it to a handbag or hat? A: A sturdy hat can work well, but avoid piercing leather handbags because the pin will leave permanent holes. If you want the look on a bag, it is usually safer to attach it to a scarf, ribbon or fabric handle wrap instead of the leather itself.
Q: How should I care for the gold-tone finish and rhinestones? A: Put the brooch on after fragrance, make-up and lotions have dried. Avoid water, humidity, direct sunlight and household chemicals, then gently wipe it with a soft dry cloth after wear and store it separately to help prevent scratches.
Q: How should I clean it safely? A: Do not soak it or use jewellery dips, ultrasonic cleaners or abrasive polishes. A soft, dry, lint-free cloth is the safest option for routine care. If it becomes damp, blot it dry gently and allow it to air dry fully before storing.
Q: Does vintage Chanel jewellery usually have a hallmark or date mark? A: Many vintage Chanel jewellery pieces have a reverse stamp or signature plate, but the style of marking varies by era and not every piece is marked in exactly the same way. Hallmarks can help with dating, but they are only one part of a proper authenticity assessment.
Q: How is authenticity checked, and what is included with this item? A: A Retro Tale states that its items are authenticated by in-house experts using a multi-step process. For this brooch, no additional items are listed in the product information, so only the brooch itself should be expected unless otherwise stated.
