Chanel 2005 No.5 Perfume Bottle Brooch

A miniature No. 5 perfume bottle rendered as a brooch, this piece comes from Karl Lagerfeld's Chanel Spring 2005 collection, when the house turned its own cosmetics codes into costume jewellery. The form distills the fragrance Coco Chanel introduced in 1921, a scent so central to the maison that its silhouette reads instantly as Chanel itself. Compact enough for a lapel, a scarf, or a bag strap, it carries the No. 5 lettering and the interlocking CC alongside the house signature gold tone. As an archive accessory from the Lagerfeld era, it sits at the intersection of Chanel's perfume heritage and its sense of wit.
