“Flight of Elegance” Vintage Chanel Button Pendant
This extraordinary pendant began its life as the neck closure button on a vintage Chanel coat from the early 1970s. Once fastened at the collar of a chic white woollen coat, it would have sat close to the face, catching the light with every movement. Now, it has been transformed into a bold and deeply luxurious sterling silver pendant. A true one of a kind creation for those who value heritage, craftsmanship and symbolism.
A Rare Chanel Treasure in Baby Blue Enamel.
The original button features a stunning baby blue enamel background, beautifully preserved through time. At its centre, a silver toned swallow glides gracefully in mid flight, a symbol of hope, renewal and safe return, accompanied by a discreet, classic Chanel logo. It’s an understated yet unmistakable mark of couture heritage.
Dazzling Diamond Cut Crystals for Maximum Sparkle.
Framing the central design is a border of exquisite diamond cut crystals that flash with extraordinary brilliance. These stones are masterfully set to maximise light refraction, delivering a level of sparkle that rivals real diamonds and instantly draws the eye. The effect is bold, elegant and impossible to ignore.
Fine Jewellery Craftsmanship. Bezel Set in Solid Sterling Silver.
The button has been bezel (rub-over) set into solid sterling silver, a hallmark of fine jewellery making that not only protects the original Chanel button, but gives a smooth, refined finish that speaks to exceptional craftsmanship. The larger scale of this particular button allows the pendant to make a striking statement when worn, while still retaining an air of timeless sophistication.
A Statement Pendant with Meaning and Presence.
This is not simply a pendant. It’s a piece of fashion history reimagined into wearable history. Bold yet elegant, luminous yet refined, it carries with it the story of Parisian couture from another era. Designed to sit proudly as the centrepiece of your look, it is a conversation starter, a symbol, and a rare treasure all in one.
