Chanel earring

[CarsonChris]

I had a project up at Tahoe today that I couldn't get to because of a car accident. I always carry a detector so I turned around and hunted at a sledding hill that was nearby. At the low end of the sled hill there's a few pine trees where all the moms congregate under. Found 2 earrings and a handful of clad.

Chanel has a stamp P18. Everything I can find on this version of earring calls it "light gold" does light gold mean plated?

Pretty earring but I think this will be gold fill/plate, although even Chanel’s costume jewellery is expensive.

Enlarging your picture, I see the oval Chanel mark which dates from the 1980s onwards but your particular style of mark was used between 1993-2020. One side of the interlocking ‘CC’ mark you have ‘P18’ and then a ‘V’ the other side. The ‘V’ indicates it’s a design that was continuously produced, the P indicates it’s styled for a spring collection, and the numbers ‘18’ are last two digits of the year it was made. So it’s from their 2018 spring collection.

‘P’ stands for ‘printemps’ (spring) and they also used ‘A’ for ‘automne’ (autumn/fall) and ‘C’ for croisière (cruise collection).
