CHANEL · Coral Tweed Jacket with CC Nightingale Gripoix Buttons
Spring 2010 “COUNTRYSIDE” Collection · Karl Lagerfeld
— Rare Runway Collectible —

— A particularly rare Chanel jacket from Karl Lagerfeld’s Spring 2010 Countryside collection — instantly recognisable in construction, but transformed by an unusually warm coral palette and some of the most charming jewel buttons of the season

— The effect is not loud. Quite the opposite. The coral is softened, almost mellow in person, and the nightingale buttons give the jacket that slightly eccentric Lagerfeld touch — precious, witty, and very specifically Chanel

// Size mark 34 FR / Condition: never worn, with tags //

MATERIAL AUTHORITY

• Signature Chanel tweed in a warm, refined coral shade; the colour reads coral, not red — softly warmed, never harsh, and considerably more nuanced in natural light

• The weave is tactile and dimensional, with small irregularities in the surface giving the colour depth rather than flat saturation

• Tonal fringed tweed trim follows the edges, preserving the monochrome effect while adding texture and definition

HOUSE CODES

• Masterpiece Gripoix jewel buttons in silver tone

• Each button carries the CC logo with nightingale motifs, giving the hardware an almost miniature-jewellery quality

• Buttons are repeated across the front, four patch pockets and sleeves

SILHOUETTE

• The iconic four-patch-pocket construction keeps the composition unmistakably Chanel

• Gently shaped at the waist; sleeves finish above the wrist, allowing the repeated jewel buttons to remain visible

• Tonal silk lining completes the interior; the traditional chain link at the hem provides the discreet weight that gives the jacket its characteristic fall

• The overall line is feminine and sculpted without becoming overly fitted
  From a distance, the jacket looks exceptionally clean and composed
