A Winter’s Day in Paris, 1940s

Picture Paris in the 1940s: a crisp winter morning, the soft hush of snow along the boulevards, and a lady stepping out in her mid length Chanel wool coat. Her hair is swept into a perfect French twist beneath her hat, her gloves chosen to match her shoes and handbag,  as was the custom of the day.  And at the very centre of her elegant silhouette,  a row of bold charcoal buttons, drawing every glance, quietly declaring timeless style.

The Untold Story of Vintage Chanel Buttons

How many hands fastened those buttons through the years? How many admiring glances did they attract on bustling Parisian streets? Each one carries a history we can only imagine, a story threaded through fashion, time, and the women who wore them. Now, reimagined as earrings, these authentic Chanel buttons live again, transformed into treasures for today.

The Perfect Solution for Delicate Ears

With time, ear piercings can lose their strength, and bold statement earrings don’t always feel as comfortable as they once did. These earrings offer the perfect solution. Crafted with new generation clips, they sit securely yet softly, making them comfortable enough to wear all day and well into the evening. You’ll forget you’re wearing them, until the compliments start flowing and you rediscover that feeling you once had slipping into your favourite pair of statement earrings.

Sterling Silver Craftsmanship

Hand crafted in solid sterling silver to the highest goldsmithing standards, the setting has been designed to enhance, but never overpower the beauty of the vintage Chanel buttons.  The raised, tactile mesh background highlights the iconic interlocking C’s, while the simple, highly polished silver edge frames them with elegance and restraint.  The result is a piece that feels as luxurious to touch as it looks to wear.

Timeless Vintage, Made for Today

These earrings are more than jewellery, they’re a conversation piece, a glimpse into 1940s Paris, and a wearable work of art. The past and present meet in a way that feels effortless, allowing you to bring a touch of timeless Chanel elegance into your everyday life.

Your jewellery journey begins with a piece of hand crafted wearable history, by Porsha Bella Jewellery.

*Please note, the buttons used in all of my creations are second hand, antique or vintage, therefore they will show signs of their previous lives.  Some scratches, tiny dents, some enamel wear and even tarnishing.  I cannot guarantee the quality or longevity of these buttons.  In some cases there can be colour variations, and plating lift during the polishing process, this is unavoidable.  I’m unable to refund or replace buttons that break or crack.  Although I do put every button through rigorous testing to do my best to ensure their longevity.  *Disclaimer… I’m not able to guarantee the longevity of any buttons that have crystals or pearls used.

Unlike costume jewellery, my jewellery is professionally hand crafted using traditional Goldsmith techniques and genuine, solid precious metals, so therefore you can wear *some of your Porsha Bella pieces whilst swimming, showering and washing.  These activities shouldn’t damage or discolour the precious metals.  I never take my jewellery off.  However, you may need to polish your jewellery a little more frequently if you want that shiny, brand new look.  If you treat your Porsha Bella creation, like the treasure of history it is, you should have an heirloom piece that will stand the test of time.  If you have any concerns about how to care for this piece, then please reach out to me and I can help you with tips on getting a long and happy wear life out of it.

*Designer buttons have no affiliation with the brand or fashion house of their origin.  I do my best to ensure all designer buttons are genuine and from a reputable source.  Porsha Bella designer button creations are not sold on behalf of or in conjunction with the brand.  The designer buttons are second hand, vintage or antique, with all rights removed and protected by the second hand market.
