Gold Plated Chanel Perfume Bottle Drop Earrings Set With Pearls And Small Crystals With A Pearl Stud At The Top. The House Of Chanel originated in 1909, when Gabrielle Chanel opened a millinery shop at 160 Boulevard Malesherbes, the ground floor of the Parisian flat of the socialite and textile businessman Étienne Balsan, of whom she was the mistress. Because the Balsan flat also was a salon for the French hunting and sporting élite, Chanel had the opportunity to meet their demi-mondaine mistresses who, as such, were women of fashion, upon whom the rich men displayed their wealth – as ornate clothes, jewellery, and hats. This piece is re-worked. This means that items have been rebuilt or repaired. The supplier we use takes older (and new) damaged Chanel costume jewellery and repairs - re makes. So for example if a earring pin breaks they resolder a new one or in more dramatic case, if a necklace breaks, they may use the remaining pieces to make earrings etc. They don't come with any authentication cards as they have been altered.
