Chanel P80099 Cashmere Bolero Cardigan, Black, CC and Heart Zip Pulls, Size 34, Made in Italy

A short black Chanel cardigan in pure cashmere, zipped at the front with chain pulls that end in a crystal CC and a gold heart.

The Piece

Chanel was founded by Gabrielle Chanel, who opened her first Paris boutique, a milliner's, in 1910.

The cardigan is cut as a short bolero with a close round neck, fine ribbed edges and slightly flared three-quarter sleeves, each cuff fastened with three small gold-tone buttons. The front closes with a zip whose two pulls hang on twisted gold-tone chains, one ending in a crystal-set CC and the other in a gold heart set with a stone, and a larger gold button, embossed with a quilted bag, sits at the neck.

The composition tag reads 100% cashmere.
