Pre-owned luxury jewelry
Fine jewelry is perhaps the most personal piece in any wardrobe: a pearl sautoir, a camellia brooch, a pair of earrings worn for a lifetime and passed on. At Old Fashioned Club, we bring together a curated selection of authenticated pre-owned luxury jewelry, from Chanel signatures to Hermès lines, each chosen for its craftsmanship, its history and its timeless elegance. Buying these pieces second-hand means embracing accessible luxury and a more sustainable approach to fashion, without compromising on quality.
Why buy luxury jewelry pre-owned
Jewelry is, by nature, made to last. Unlike many accessories, it does not wear out: worked metal, a well-set pearl, a gilded brooch can cross decades without losing their brilliance. Shopping pre-owned gives you access to pieces that are often no longer available in boutiques today, to collectible models and vintage editions, all at a fair price. It also extends the life of an existing piece rather than producing a new one, a gesture at the heart of our commitment to sustainable fashion since our founding in 2017.
The houses and signature pieces available
Chanel holds a central place in our jewelry selection. Gabrielle Chanel transformed costume jewelry as early as the 1920s by freely pairing it with luxury clothing, then launched her first costume jewelry collections in the 1930s. She is the designer who popularized the long pearl sautoir, worn in every circumstance. The camellia, her favorite flower first introduced as a motif in her collections in 1923, became one of the house's emblematic motifs, featured in the high jewelry collection "Bijoux de Diamants" presented in 1932.
You will also find the legacy of the Maltese cross, with the famous enameled cuffs created in the 1930s by Fulco di Verdura for Coco Chanel. At Hermès, the Chaîne d'Ancre line, designed by Robert Dumas and crafted in silver from 1938, remains one of the most recognizable signatures in jewelry, reinterpreted across necklaces, sautoirs and bracelets.
Necklaces, sautoirs and brooches: explore our categories
To refine your search, we have organized our pieces by type. Those drawn to long, graphic lines will appreciate our selection of pre-owned Chanel necklaces and sautoirs, direct heirs to Mademoiselle's style. Our pre-owned Chanel brooches, from the camellia to the CC logo, remain pieces of true character that lift a jacket lapel or a collar. Finally, our pre-owned Chanel earrings add that finishing touch, discreet or bold, that defines a look.
How Old Fashioned Club authenticates these pieces
Pre-owned fine jewelry calls for particular care, as counterfeits are common. Every piece that joins our selection is examined by our experts: hallmarks, signatures, finishes, the quality of the metal and the setting, and consistency with its period of production. Special attention is paid to house markings and to the manufacturing details that distinguish an original. Each validated piece is sold with a certificate of authenticity, and delivery is complimentary. It is this guarantee that lets you buy with confidence.
Our buying advice
Favor pieces whose patina tells a story without compromising their integrity: gilded metal may oxidize slightly, but clasps and fastenings should remain fully functional. For a pearl sautoir, check the evenness of the strand and the condition of each pearl. A brooch should be chosen for its balance and the crispness of its enamel. Consider its use, too: a collectible piece is meant to be worn as much as it is meant to be handed down. And to build a complete silhouette, pair your jewelry with a Chanel jacket whose structured cut shows off both metal and pearl.
