Details & measurements
This authentic vintage Chanel camellia brooch captures the house’s most enduring emblem.
Crafted in glossy black (resin/enamel finish with metallic edging) in the form of a fully bloomed camellia, it features a small interlocking CC logo on one petal. The reverse carries the classic oval stamp reading © CHANEL ®, the CC monogram, “P,” and “MADE IN FRANCE,” consistent with Chanel’s post-1993 seasonal coding system (P indicating a Spring/Printemps collection).
The camellia was Coco Chanel’s favorite flower. She fell in love with it for its pure form, lack of scent (so it would never compete with her iconic No. 5 perfume), and associations with elegance and simplicity—partly inspired by Alexandre Dumas’ La Dame aux Camélias. She began wearing silk camellias as early as 1913 and elevated the bloom into a signature motif that appears across Chanel fashion, jewelry, and design to this day.
Presented with its original black Chanel box, this piece is a classic, wearable statement of authentic Chanel craftsmanship. Perfect for lapels, jackets, coats, or scarves.
Our pieces are vintage and pre-loved, and may show signs of wear consistent with their age. We photograph and describe each piece as accurately as we can, though very minor imperfections may not always be visible in photos.
