Authenticated Vintage Chanel Jewelry

A Chanel brooch from the 1980s is not just a piece of jewelry. It is a document. It carries the signature of an era, a workshop, a woman who wore it before you. At Françoise Montague, we select these pieces one by one, from private sales and Parisian estates, and authenticate them before offering them.

Our perspective on the Chanel archive

Chanel couture jewelry has spanned seven decades without ever losing its intensity. From Robert Goossens’ long necklaces to the enameled camellias of the 1990s, each piece is a fragment of history. We prioritize identifiable editions, marked pieces, and references with a high rarity index.

Authentication at the heart of the process

No piece enters our selection without expert evaluation. We check the markings, consistent oxidation, clasp craftsmanship, and metal weight. Every acquisition is accompanied by a provenance certificate and a Françoise Montague authenticity guarantee.

For whom?

For those who build a wardrobe of designer pieces, who can recognize a Chanel long necklace across a room, and who seek the discreet Paris address where these treasures can be accessed without the crowds of major resale sites. Our tax refund service is activated in-store for our international clientele.
