Presenting a rare and remarkable find - Coco Chanel lifetime earrings by Robert Goossens. Creations from this highly recognizable collection produced from the late 1950s till the early 1960s have graced the Metropolitan Museum displays and featured prominently in various publications and exhibitions. These collectible Chanel Goossens earrings showcase faux turquoise pate de verre rounded cabochons, meticulously set in the signature handmade bird's nest wire setting made of gilded bronze.
Like many of Chanel's early costume jewelry creations, they are unsigned. Remarkably, these earrings were acquired from a model who worked closely with Mademoiselle Chanel herself during the 1960s.
Despite their age, they remain in good condition, showcasing a beautiful patina and subtle signs of aging. Size: 1" / 2,5cm.
Welcome to Vintage Heritage, a collection of rare and hard-to-find vintage treasures curated by a fashion history enthusiast with over 10 years of experience. While my heart belongs to 90s Chanel, my closet also includes items from every decade - from 1950s Haute Couture creations by Gabrielle Chanel to modern pre-owned pieces, as well as my favorites from other beloved brands, such as Vivienne Westwood, Christian Dior, Dolce&Gabbana, and Thierry Mugler. I carefully curate each piece with a focus on quality, timeless style, and investment potential. Please note that I'm not affiliated with Chanel Inc or any of the other brands listed. All of the items in my collection are from my personal closet, and I take pride in offering authentic, pre-loved pieces that have been thoughtfully cared for.
When purchasing a vintage item, please keep in mind that it has had a previous life and may show minor imperfections as a result of its age and previous use. I take great care to ensure that every piece in my collection is in the best possible condition and ready for you to wear. Each item is stored in a smoke and odor-free environment and will be sent to you freshly cleaned by the finest dry cleaners. To further protect your investment, every item is authenticated by reputable 3rd-party authentication company and comes with an archival-quality garment bag.
Vintage clothing often runs smaller than contemporary styles, so it's best to rely on the measurements provided rather than the size tag. If you have any questions about a specific item, don't hesitate to ask. Reasonable offers are always considered.
Fast shipping is a top priority, and items are generally shipped within three business days via UPS 2nd Day Air with signature confirmation for added security. International shipping is powered by eBay. If for any reason you're not satisfied with your purchase, returns are accepted within 14 days of delivery. Please note that the item must be in its original, unworn condition and must have the security tag attached. For added security, all item details, conditions, labels, and shipping processes are recorded via video to prevent fraud.
Some of the modeling and styling photos used may have been sourced from social media, search engines, and editorials, solely for presentation purposes, and with the utmost respect for their rightful owners. If you have any concerns about photo credit or would like a photo removed, please contact me.
Thank you for choosing Vintage Heritage, and I look forward to sharing my passion for archival fashion with you.
