What sets this particular mini apart is its Pearl Crush design, which adds an extra layer of charm, and versatility. The golden ‘pearl’ not only adds a certain je ne sais quoi but allows the chain length to be entirely adjustable.

Alternatively, it can serve as a fabulous starting point for anyone looking to begin a curated Chanel collection.
