CHANEL Vintage Coco Mark Star 25 Brooch GP Gold

$2,000.00 AUD

Preloved CHANEL Vintage Coco Mark Star 25 Brooch GP Gold

This CHANEL Coco Mark Star Brooch from the Season 25 Collection (1985/86) presents exceptionally well for a piece approaching its fourth decade, a testament to careful ownership and the quality of Chanel's mid-eighties craftsmanship.

The gold plating remains intact across the sculptural eight-pointed star, with only slight surface scratches visible on close inspection. The textured finish catches the light beautifully, and the raised detailing retains its full definition with no loss of crispness to the design. Slight marks are visible as expected for a vintage piece of this era, adding character without compromising its striking presence.

On the reverse, the clasp is solid and fully functional, opening and closing securely. The oval cartouche stamp reading CHANEL 2 CC 5 MADE IN FRANCE is clear and correct, confirming its 1985/86 production.

Please examine all photos carefully, as they form an integral part of the condition description.

Please note: colour may appear different in photos and in person due to lighting and screen settings; be mindful of this when assessing the shade.

We video-record each step of packing and provide end-to-end tracking to maintain a secure chain of custody from our showroom to your door. 

This piece is pre-owned and preloved, so mild signs of use are to be expected. We’ve photographed and described every notable mark to ensure you know exactly what you’re getting before you buy.

Why We Love

Why We Love the CHANEL Vintage Coco Mark Star 25 Brooch

Born Under a Lucky Star

In 1932, Gabrielle Chanel unveiled Bijoux de Diamants, her only fine jewellery collection, and at its heart blazed the comet and the star. She believed the night sky held everything a woman needed: light, mystery, and a touch of the infinite. Half a century later, in the Season 25 Collection of 1985/86, that celestial obsession returned in gilded form. This brooch is a direct descendant of that vision, a star you can actually hold.

The Golden Age of the Eighties

The mid-eighties marked a thrilling chapter for Chanel. Karl Lagerfeld had just taken the creative reins, and the house's costume jewellery grew bolder, heavier, and more sculptural than ever before. Pieces from the numbered season era were made in France in limited quantities, with a weight and substance that modern production rarely replicates. When you lift this brooch, you feel the difference immediately. It is jewellery with conviction.

A Surface That Tells Stories

Run your eye across the star and notice the texture. The gold plated surface ripples with hammered, organic detail, studded with raised orbs like a constellation caught mid-swirl. This is not the flat, polished perfection of mass production. It is closer to treasure pulled from an ancient shipwreck, deliberately artisanal, gloriously imperfect, and utterly alive under light.

Eight Points of Pure Drama

Most star motifs play it safe with five points. This one commands eight, radiating from its centre like a compass rose or a Byzantine icon. The result is a silhouette with genuine presence, architectural enough to anchor an entire outfit yet organic enough to feel personal. Pinned to a winter coat, a beret, or the shoulder of a simple knit, it transforms the everyday into the theatrical.

The Mark of Its Moment

Turn it over and history is stamped into the metal. The oval cartouche reads CHANEL 2 CC 5 MADE IN FRANCE, the numbered season marking used only from 1984 to 1990. Season 25 places this piece precisely in 1985/86, a tight window that makes it a genuine artefact of a pivotal era. For collectors, these numbered season pieces are among the most sought after in all of vintage Chanel.

Scarcer Every Season

Vintage Chanel costume jewellery does not replenish itself. Every year, more pieces disappear into permanent collections, and the eighties star motifs are particularly coveted, buoyed by the enduring romance of the 1932 collection they echo. Owning one now means securing a piece of that story before the door closes further.
