Lots at a forthcoming Bonhams sale include vintage Chanel costume jewellery that’s bound to appeal to celebrity fans like Rihanna.
Pool ARNAL/PICOT/Getty ImagesExcitement for the exhibition is also mounting at the Knightsbridge HQ of auction house Bonhams, which will be hosting a sale – “The Art of Luxury: Chanel” – to coincide with the exhibition opening. Taking place online from 11 to 21 September, the sale is jam-packed with collector’s items from Coco Chanel, Karl Lagerfeld and Virginie Viard’s tenures, including ready-to-wear, bags and jewellery.
“The Chanel auction features almost 100 lots of incredible costume jewellery from the ’70s right up to 2023,“ says Meg Randell, head of UK and Europe designer handbags and fashion at Bonhams. “Whilst all Chanel jewellery tends to be popular at auction, I was particularly looking for pieces from the first 10 years of Karl’s tenure at Chanel, as pieces from the ’80s and early ’90s are highly collectible and can fetch huge prices at auction.
