CHANEL BROOCH, NEW IN BOX

FOR SALE IS A NEW CHANEL BROOCH FROM THE FALL OF 2003, SOLD IN ITS CHANEL BOX WITH PROTECTIVE PADDING. IT ALSO COMES WITH CHANEL VELVET STORAGE POUCH.

THIS IS A STUNNING PIECE OF JEWELRY, ORIGINALLY COSTING IN EXCESS OF $875-$950

THIS KNOCK OUT PIECE IS IN THE SHAPE OF A CROSS AND  MEASURES 3 INCHS LONG AND 2 3/4 INCHES ACROSS. IT IS DONE IN SILVER TONE METAL THAT IS SLIGHTLY OXIDIZED SO IT VERY SUBTLE AND NOT AT ALL GARISH.

THE STONES ARE DONE IN GLASS AND ARE IN THE CABOCHON STYLE, BEING BLACK AT THE TOP AND AVENTURINE OR JADE GREEN ON THE CROSS BAR, AND A PURPLE BLUE IN THE MIDDLE WITH THE CHANEL LOGO IN SILVER METAL. THE LOWER STONE IS A SORT OF BRICK/RUBY AND THE BOTTOM ONE IS A PURPLISH BLUE.

THERE IS A HOOK IN THE BACK SO ONE COULD WEAR THIS AS A PENDENT - IT WOULD BE STUNNING WITH A BLACK VELVET CORD OR A BLACK LEATHER CORD OR EVEN WITH AN OXIDIZED SILVER CHAIN.

IT WOULD BE STUNNING ON A COAT, JACKET OR WOOL DRESS OR WORN AS A CHOKER OR LONG NECKLACE.

THIS IS A HEAVY PIECE SO I AM GOING TO GIVE ALL OF YOU READERS A VERY HELPFUL HINT WHICH I HAVE LEARNED IN MY 20 PLUS YEARS IN THE JEWELRY BUSINESS -- READ IT AND TAKE IT TO HEART.

WHEN YOU HAVE A HEAVY BROOCH AND YOU PIN IT ON A JACKET OR ANYTHING THAT IS NOT SUPER THICK, IT MAY LEAN FORWARD AND NOT LOOK AS SPECTACULAR. THIS IS THE TRICK -- TAKE A KLEENEX OR EVEN AN OLD HANDKERCHIEF AND FOLD IT INTO A SMALL SQUARE AROUND 2 TO 2 INCHES SQUARE. PUT THAT BEHIND THE FABRIC AND THEN PIN THE BROOCH THROUGH YOUR JACKET OR COAT AND ALSO THROUGH THE TISSUE OR HANDKERCHIEF. THIS WILL STABILIZE THE BROOCH AND IT WILL NOT FALL FORWARD.

SO, EVEN IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO PURCHASE THIS AMAZING PIECE. YOU HAVE STILL LEARNED SOMETHING USEFUL.

ANYWAY, THIS IS A COUTURE PIECE OF COSTUME JEWELRY AND IT IS REALLY A KNOCKOUT.

THESE LUSCIOUS RICH JEWEL TONES ARE REALLY RICH AND WILL POP ON ANY MATERIAL.

IT WAS MADE IN FRANCE BY THE WAY.
