Beautiful Chanel necklace from the late 1980s. Gold tone metal chain link with circular interlocking logo discs throughout. Large lobster clasp and small hanging Chanel date plaque. From collection 28, the era Karl Lagerfeld appointed Victoire de Castallane head of jewelry design. Victoire produced most of the famous and highly collectable Chanel pieces. She was at Chanel from 1984 until 1998, an amazingly creative period. De Castellane introduced a new dating system when she arrived, moving from a specific year to the idea of a Season. She began with Season 23, and ended with Season 29, which roughly correspond to the years 1984-1990. This piece is from her second last collection. 12.25" long. Not in original box.
