Antique & Vintage Chanel

Chanel is synonymous with classic style and casual elegance. In contrast to Chanel’s minimalistic approach to fashion, Chanel jewelry features bold designs that draw inspiration from costume jewelry and fine jewelry alike. The iconic mirrored double C’s are among the most sought-after Chanel designs and can be found in everything from Chanel necklaces to Chanel earrings. Other popular designs, such as the Chanel Maltese Cross Cuff, continue to be reinterpreted in compelling new ways to this day. 

Chanel was considered a rebel and a revolutionary when she chose to incorporate both fine and costume jewelry into her iconic style. Layering faux pearl necklaces with expensive brooches or earrings was a classic Chanel styling choice, and would change the course of jewelry design for years to come.

Chanel herself only released one collection of fine jewelry, although the Chanel house continues to produce new designs to this day. Her fine jewelry collection heavily featured diamonds, inspired by her personal love for things that glitter. However, Chanel’s most iconic pieces continue to be vintage styles that emphasize the design of the jewelry rather than highlighting the materials being used. Cuff bracelets, layered Chanel necklaces, and clip-on Chanel earrings are classic designs that will only increase in value over time.

For the true connoisseur, a vintage Chanel piece is a must-have addition to their jewelry collection. Chanel earrings become a timeless accent piece that can pair with any outfit to add instant allure. For a bold statement, choose a pendant Chanel necklace or multi-stranded chain. No matter what you choose, you’ll be adorned with the revolutionary designs of Chanel. Explore our entire collection of Chanel jewelry, including Chanel earrings, chains, pendants, cuffs, and more.
