Rare Vintage CHANEL Triple Strand Classic Flap Bag Pendant Necklace

A spectacular, collector-grade crown jewel of vintage costume jewelry, this rare early 1980s Chanel triple-strand pendant necklace is a monumental tribute to the House’s most legendary icon: the Classic Flap Handbag.  The necklace features a substantial, heavy three-tiered arrangement of thick, high-luster cable chains that anchor beautifully into a prominent, industrial-style spring-ring clasp. Draped elegantly from the center is a magnificent, highly detailed, solid gold-plated pendant perfectly sculpted into Chanel’s iconic quilted handbag. The pendant showcases a rich diamond-quilt pattern across its front, a miniature CC logo on the closure flap, and a tiny structural twisted chain handle.  Crafted during the highly coveted early 1980s era of Chanel’s jewelry production, this piece is heavily layered in 24k gold plating, giving it that unmistakable, deep, warm vintage glow and magnificent, luxurious weight.
