    Good day CW community. I need your help once again. I posted these Chanel bracelets several weeks ago and still have my doubts if they are authentic. I have not found any information that tells me otherwise, so please, any help before I discard the bracelets would be appreciated! Thanks for looking.

      It's got to be signed on the back. Can you get a good close up of the back and just add it to this post? All you have to do is hit the 'edit' on the left side and add a pic. If it's not signed, it's not authentic. I would need to see it if it is signed. I'll take a look around too.

      Aloha, Shareurpassion. Thank you for your expertise! The pieces are not signed, so leads me to believe they are fakes. The lady I bought them from told me they were authentic...guess I need to do my homework. Thanks again..have a wonderful day!

      Yes these do need to have a makers mark on the back etc.

      Good morning, Sean. Thanks for your expertise! Guess I need to look on the bright side; two less fake Chanel pieces on the market. Have a great day!

      Yes, I remember these bracelets and also mentioned that they must be marked.

      Ya know, it would be nice if people were more honest too! But yes, homework... the thing about that is, as much as we all try, we just can't possibly know it all, right?! The main thing you can remember about this is if it's a high end piece, it will always have a name (stamp). Here's the kicker, there are a lot of fakes out there that are very, very close to the authentic that it can be hard to tell. You have to go with your gut. If it's cheap or you have doubt, let it go. Another something will come along. Seek and ye shall find!!! lol! So many times I have given away things to people only to find out later that is was worth x amount! What can I say but I hope they enjoy what they got! I just now saw your comment to Sean, I love your outlook on things...that's right!

      Look good for the marks -- as sometimes they just are not staring us in the face. Have seen marks on back, sides, edges or somewhere I did not see -- or even worn marks.

      ~ Just an FYI always for anything we have.....better safe than Sorry !!

      Aloha, Efesgirl. Thanks again for your help..I just need to stay away from Chanel jewelry..lol. Have a wonderful day!

      Good day, Shareurpassion. Thanks for the good advice! One of my biggest problems is that I buy before I think..lol! I'm a pack rat..I just bought a shoe box full of jewelry..plenty cool stuff. Have a wonderful weekend!

      Hello, antiquerose. I finally bought a loupe so I can search for marks. I will look at the bracelets one more time. Also, thanks for the help on the Holland Delft pieces!! Have a splendid evening!

      Very pretty bracelets, not authentic. There is a market for repro Chanel. I hope you didn't spend too much on them.
