Logo and Corporate<br />
identity<br />
The <strong>Chanel</strong> logotype comprises two<br />
interlocked, opposed letters-C, one faced<br />
left, one faced right. The logotype was<br />
given to <strong>Chanel</strong> by the Château de<br />
Crémat, Nice, and was not registered as a<br />
trademark until the first <strong>Chanel</strong> shops were<br />
established. Along with other makers,<br />
<strong>Chanel</strong> is a target of counterfeiters. China<br />
is prime supplier. An authentic classic<br />
<strong>Chanel</strong> handbag retails from around US<br />
$4,150, while a counterfeit usually costs<br />
around US$200. Beginning in the 1990s, all<br />
authentic <strong>Chanel</strong> handbags were<br />
numbered.
