If any of you Chanel experts out there know anything about this bracelet, I would appreciate any info. The clasp looks replaced to me. It is just not chunky enough to match up with the thick, chunky chain IMHO. Don't know if the small stone is a diamond or just a crystal. There is a hole in back of the bracelet where the diamond/crystal is located to indicate it might be the real deal as holes in jewelry are there for light/sparkle. The claps is the only place I find any markings. It is marked 925. Of course, if it is a replacement, I have nothing to really say the rest is sterling. I looks like sterling though.

It looks to be an italian made clasp and is probably the original. Thats all I would know.
I think what you have is a I.D bracelet and the previous owners name was Chanel. As far as I know Chanel jewelry will be signed on the back,with a hang tag or on clasps usually the double c mark. Early Chanel was unsigned but most of those would be poured glass or pearls. This is just an opinion.
