Q: What are the measurements and how big will it look when worn? A: The brooch measures approximately 4 cm (height) x 6.5 cm (width) x 1 cm (depth). It has a statement presence that suits lapels, coats and structured knits without feeling overly heavy. If you’d like the gram weight or a photo on model for scale, we’re happy to provide it.

Delivery & Returns
Q: Is this Chanel Coco Mark Chain Brooch 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: This is Chanel costume jewellery crafted in a gold‑plated metal with the interlocking CC logo and a woven chain motif. It is not solid gold. This vintage piece is noted as Made in France. If you’d like us to confirm any aspect of the composition for this specific brooch, just ask and we’ll check the details for you.
Q: What are the measurements and how big will it look when worn? A: The brooch measures approximately 4 cm (height) x 6.5 cm (width) x 1 cm (depth). It has a statement presence that suits lapels, coats and structured knits without feeling overly heavy. If you’d like the gram weight or a photo on model for scale, we’re happy to provide it.
Q: How does it fasten and is it secure? A: It features a traditional pin fastening on the back. For extra security—especially on thicker fabrics or when wearing on a bag—you can add a locking pin back or a small brooch stopper, and place a felt/backing disc on the inside of the fabric to stabilise the pin and protect the material.
Q: What hallmarks or stamps should I expect on a Chanel brooch? A: Vintage Chanel brooches typically have an oval or round signature plaque on the reverse stamped CHANEL, often with “Made in France/Italy,” and—depending on era—a season/date code. Placement and layout vary by period. Our close‑up photos show any stamps present on this piece.
Q: Is it nickel‑free and suitable for sensitive skin? A: Like most fashion jewellery, vintage Chanel pieces may contain nickel in their alloys or platings. If you have sensitivities, wear the brooch over clothing, consider applying a clear barrier product to contact points, and discontinue use if irritation occurs. We’re happy to advise further if needed.
Q: How should I care for the gold‑plated finish? A: Keep it dry and away from perfume, hairspray, lotions and sanitiser. Put jewellery on last and take it off first. After wear, gently wipe with a soft, dry microfibre cloth. Do not soak, use ultrasonic cleaners or chemical dips. Store it separately in its box or a soft pouch, away from humidity and direct sunlight.
Q: Can it be repaired, replated or have the pin tightened? A: A competent jewellery workshop can usually straighten or tighten the pin, replace a catch, or perform light replating if appropriate. Chanel boutiques generally offer repair services for Fine Jewellery; assistance for vintage costume pieces can vary by store. Any modification may affect originality and resale value—contact us for reputable specialists if needed.
Q: Where can I pin it—coats, knitwear, scarves or handbags? A: It’s ideal on structured fabrics like wool, tweed, denim and canvas. On delicate materials (silk, fine knits), test in an inconspicuous spot and use a felt/backing disc to prevent pulls. If styling on a handbag, pin through a reinforced area or strap to avoid marking delicate leather.
Q: What condition should I expect, what is included, and can I return it? A: This brooch is in Very Good Condition with light signs of careful wear possible unless noted otherwise. This listing includes a box; only accessories specifically shown or stated are included. Returns are accepted under our standard policy—please see our Returns page for eligibility, timeframes and conditions, and ensure the item is returned in the same condition received.
