Rare Pre-owned CELINE Triomphe Gold Plate Button Choker Necklace Pendant Charm

Celine vintage Triomphe NECKLACE (⁎⁍̴̛ᴗ⁍̴̛⁎), 100% authentic pre-owned item! If you have any questions, please message before placing an order. All sales are final. If this item is purchased together with a pre-owned bag order, there will be a special discount. Please contact me before placing your order for a price adjustment. The shop owner rarely buys pre-owned accessories (mainly because I don't use them much). Compared to pre-owned bags, accessories are not as cost-effective. Items in good condition are usually not cheap, especially from my two favorite brands, Celine and Loewe. They produced fewer accessories in the past (unlike Dior and Chanel, which have an overwhelming variety...). Furthermore, awareness of preservation was lower back then, so the condition is often not great. Consequently, the overall circulation in the market is significantly less compared to other brands. I often wear modified pieces. Even small vintage hardware was exquisite and could be transformed into stylish, minimalist accessories. This is a 100% authentic Celine vintage piece, originally a button from clothing, featuring a立体 Triomphe logo charm. The pendant is heavily gilded, with excellent three-dimensional engraved gold plating. It's simple and small but exquisitely crafted, with the same quality as bag hardware! The moment I saw it, I wanted to turn it into a necklace, so I acquired it for modification! It has a substantial, premium feel, not cheap at all. There are no obvious signs of gold loss, oxidation, or discoloration! The condition is absolutely beautiful. This is a "modified piece" that has been personally customized! This is a unique, handcrafted limited edition piece – only one available! Once sold, it will not be restocked or remade. Truly only one. To reiterate, the pendant is a 100% authentic Celine piece! The chain is my addition; it was originally a clothing button, not a replica or fake! . . . ⚐⚑˒˒ This CELINE embossed Triomphe necklace is a modified piece, crafted from a vintage 90s accessory. It's an authentic, customized item. The Triomphe pendant is a 100% authentic original CELINE clothing button with heavy gold plating. The Triomphe LOGO is very clear. The overall color is golden. The base has been modified to be flat, and pre-owned hardware has been used. Upon close inspection, there are slight signs of use. The chain itself is a combination of two styles, creating an asymmetrical effect: one side is a casual box chain, and the other is a simple, fine chain. This combination of two chain styles allows for both elegant and edgier pairings. The clasp is a specially chosen toggle clasp, extremely convenient to use, allowing you to fasten it at the front, even with one hand (I love this design)! Once secured, it won't fall off. This is the only one available, and it will not be restocked or specially ordered (mainly because the box chain was acquired during a trip to Japan and is no longer available...). Finally, let me reiterate: the pendant is 100% authentic CELINE! The necklace is a later addition, not a fake!!! I do not sell fakes!! I will specially include an original Celine packaging pouch with this item. Only one available, and it will not be remade. It's one-of-a-kind in the world. ❍ The photos are personally taken by the shop owner under natural sunlight.

In the past, most pre-owned items were✦ handmade. There was no mass production by machines, only the warmth of craftsmanship. The artisan's skill is undoubtedly much more refined than that of machines, just as everyone appreciates products handcrafted by artisans! However, today, most processes are done by machines with minimal human assembly, losing the former meticulousness. I believe the simplest, most direct way to see this is by comparing the detailed patterns of recent brand revivals with genuine vintage monograms. The level of detail in the monogram patterns alone is entirely different. If you love monograms, you must seek out pre-owned items! Truly! In terms of style, older eras were more✦ simple, timeless, and enduring. Many new designs today are actually revivals of older styles. However, new items are priced higher than vintage ones. New designs are typically based on older styles, with added details or modifications. The final product often becomes more complex (or peculiar...) than its predecessors. I believe as we grow older, we realize one thing: the simpler, the more enduring!! As we age, even our clothing tends to return to basic styles because the more basic, the more versatile. The quality of raw materials in vintage pieces is superior to new ones. If you understand✦ leather, you can tell. Most new materials are of lower grade than vintage ones. This is mainly because the cost of high-quality raw materials is too high today, and their availability is less than before. Earth's resources are dwindling... Furthermore, brands back then did not have the "ubiquitous" presence of stores everywhere like they do now... Most customers had a certain income level and had specific expectations for the finished products. There was no "fast fashion culture" back then; a bag was expected to be used for many years. The difference between new and old eras is clearly visible in✦ hardware. Many new hardware pieces oxidize and discolor after just one or two years, but vintage pieces usually don't. Besides the high-quality materials and meticulous techniques, hardware from earlier eras was plated with real K-gold! It's worth mentioning that Chanel Vintage is expensively priced for a reason; many of its clasps and chains contain real gold, certified by gold merchants! Therefore, even vintage bags from the 60s and 70s, if well-preserved, can still have gleaming hardware today. As for new items available now, to my knowledge, none of the brands' hardware contains K-gold anymore, which is why they oxidize easily. Many say that buying a vintage bag is a form of alternative investment, as they rarely depreciate and only increase in value. This is because good-condition pre-owned bags are becoming increasingly rare in the market; one less is gone forever. Remember, each of them is discontinued, so the number existing in the world is finite, meaning they will only become fewer, more expensive, and harder to find. Moreover, many brands periodically increase their prices, and each increase drives up the prices in the pre-owned market. Alternatively, if a brand releases a "revival model," the reference vintage pieces or similar styles will see a sharp price increase! Adding to this, with the recent trend of Japanese and Korean celebrities favoring vintage items, once a particular model is seen on a celebrity, its price skyrockets immediately, truly skyrockets. This is because, for a period, many people will frantically search for that model or a similar alternative, causing the prices of those few models to multiply... Therefore, vintage is truly about enjoying it early; buying late means paying more (this is not an advertisement slogan... it's a truth in the vintage world...). This is my personal experience; I regret not acquiring many series earlier and now cannot find them, or if I do, they come with an astronomical price tag... But the problem is, even knowing it's an astronomical price, you're compelled to buy, because waiting will only mean a higher price (unless the condition is poor). I am often asked about bag maintenance (ᐢ.ˬ.ᐢ). I will include small notes with details inside the bag, so don't worry. My personal habit is to maintain them when I organize my closet during seasonal changes (so it's quite a project each season...|||). Actually, pre-owned bags are not that troublesome. When you're new to it, you just need to get used to regular maintenance and cherishing the bag. Once it becomes a habit, it's not difficult. Pre-owned bags are made of excellent materials. As long as you don't use them roughly and preserve them properly, they can last for another decade and even be passed down to your daughter! Every pre-owned bag is one I love and have collected, so I hope you will love it too and preserve it for the future ☪︎ *.。 ☾︎.*·̩͙ If you are interested in purchasing, please message me for details.
