Neither Neimans nor Saks has the fine jewelry line. It is hard to find even in a flagship Chanel boutique. They also discontinue collections so many of them are not available for retail. The newer collections focus way too much on diamonds for my liking and the prices are ridiculous.
The biggest giveaway is the stamp(s) on the jewelry, basically every piece of Chanel jewelry has one or more stamps. A fake has either bad stamp or has no stamp at all.
By all means use authentication services, expert opinion is necessary.
Thank you all very much! I really appreciate the help.
And I am sad right now, it took forever to find one from the fine jewelry line and I thought this might be it. The necklace also come with a four-digit price, can't believe it is the costume line...
It is authentic Chanel. Chanel has costume jewelry(glass pearls) and fine jewelry(real pearls), that's why I need to make sure that they are actually from the fine jewelry line.
I found this pearl necklace online and really like it. The seller stated that the pearls are salt water pearls but does not specific which kind. Could you help me to identify these? And about how much do you they worth?
Thanks helping!
