Description
History of the Model: In the 1980s and 1990s, Karl Lagerfeld reinterpreted the founding codes of Chanel by deliberately exaggerating them: enlarged logos, massive chains, play on volume. This type of piece, on the border between jewelry and accessory, perfectly illustrates this approach. The signature jewelry — belts, necklaces, cuffs — are then designed to affirm belonging to the Chanel universe while integrating into everyday life with a more theatrical fashion.
Exterior Details: The main chain is made up of golden links with a shiny finish, dense and regular. In the center, six falling chains attach to a rigid perforated gold metal plaque bearing the name “CHANEL”, with a quilted diamond decoration in the background. This imposing plaque visually structures the room when worn. A round golden charm engraved with the logo and the inscription “Chanel Paris” finishes the chain with refinement.
Interior Details: This model has no lining, faithful to the codes of fashion jewelry. The chains are flexible but tight, guaranteeing good support. The round hook closure system allows for secure placement around the neck or waist. The central plate is solid, without deformation, and the finishes are clean.
Condition of the Product: In very good condition, the gilding is homogeneous, without traces of oxidation or tarnishing. The central medallion is perfectly readable, without deep scratches. The chains are flexible, without twisting or damaged links. The final charm is securely attached and also features vibrant gilding. No sign of structural fragility is noted.
Maintenance Tips: Avoid contact with liquids, perfumes or abrasive products. Wipe with a soft cloth after each use to preserve the shine of the metal. Store in a separate jewelry box to avoid friction. Do not hang so as not to deform the chains.
Why Choose this Product: This iconic model embodies the power of vintage Chanel style in its most daring form. Both an accessory and a piece of jewelry, this belt necklace can instantly transform an outfit. Its robust design, its assertive design and its rarity on the market make it a relevant collection choice for lovers of vintage couture pieces with strong identity value.
