-SPECIAL- “CHANEL” 80’s-90’s Gripoix style cabochon logo brooch

Based on the elegance established by Gabrielle Chanel, CHANEL has continued to express the evolving image of women in a free and dazzling way. We present you with an iconic piece from CHANEL that captures attention with its substantial gold-tone sculptural form and vividly colored cabochon embellishments.

At the center, the Coco mark and the CHANEL logo are boldly placed, while glossy cabochons in green and purple tones are arranged around them in a rhythmic pattern—condensing the signature CHANEL sparkle and classic presence into this refined jewelry-sized statement.

The body is crafted from gold-tone metal, and the surface does not present a smooth, uniform finish; instead, it retains an intentionally uneven, hammered-like texture. As a result, when it catches the light, it creates depthful shadows and you can enjoy a solid sense of dimensionality even from the brooch alone.

While the design is based on a circular form, the outer rim is given a slightly wavering outline, making the silhouette feel delightfully unrestrained rather than overly perfect—an ornamental quality that brings out the vintage CHANEL character. The CHANEL logo and Coco mark appear large and raised at the center, highlighting the brand’s symbolism while the color of the cabochons softens any sense of severity—adding to its appeal.

The green and purple stones around it feature transparent, rounded shapes that harmonize beautifully with the warmth of the gold. In CHANEL costume jewelry, colored-stone-like embellishments are not merely for extravagance; they add both playfulness and refinement to your outfit. This piece reflects that aesthetic sensibility with care and intention.

On the reverse side, you can see the engravings “CHANEL,” the Coco mark, and “MADE IN FRANCE.” Since there are no season codes or year markings, we refrain from making a definitive statement about the exact year. However, based on the engraving specifications, the thick gold-tone metal, and the use of highly decorative cabochons, it can naturally be enjoyed as CHANEL costume jewelry from the late 1980s to around the 1990s.

As an accessory, a brooch holds very meaningful significance within CHANEL. By attaching it to a jacket, coat, or dress, it can dramatically change the overall impression of your outfit itself. Especially this one, with its striking logo presence and vibrant color-stone brilliance, lets you create a classic, luxurious mood simply by adding this single piece to a simple style.

For styling, we recommend pairing it with the chest area of a tailored jacket or a wool coat to enhance the elegant presence you associate with CHANEL. For a more mode-inspired look, match it with a black dress or a minimalist set-up—so the brooch’s colors and the gold’s texture stand out, adding an accent with depth to your entire ensemble.

Even in today’s fashion, a vintage CHANEL brooch functions not only as a decorative item, but as a symbolic piece that elevates the overall finish of your styling. Enjoy this one-of-a-kind offering—where classic beauty and playful color coexist in the distinct presence only CHANEL can deliver.

Please take this opportunity.
