Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: How long is the necklace and where does it sit when worn? A: The perimeter is approximately 60 cm and the crucifix pendant is about 14 cm high. On most adults, this length sits around the mid‑chest. Please refer to the measurements on this page for exact sizing.
Q: What is the necklace made from? A: It is crafted in silver‑toned metal with a black braided cord. Silver‑toned means a base metal with a silver coloured finish rather than solid sterling silver. Dolce & Gabbana rosary‑style pieces from this era are typically silver‑tone brass rather than hallmarked .925 sterling.
Q: Is the pendant removable? A: The crucifix is intended to sit on the drop as designed and is not made to be detached or repositioned. If you wish to customise the piece, a professional jeweller can advise on safe options.
Q: Can the length be adjusted? A: The wearable length is about 60 cm and the dual lobster clasp provides a secure closure. It is not designed for significant adjustment, but a necklace extender can be added by a jeweller if you prefer a longer fit.
Q: Is this suitable for everyday wear, including in water? A: It is suitable for regular wear, but we recommend removing it before showering, swimming, exercising, or applying perfume, lotions, or hairspray to protect both the silver‑toned finish and the braided cord.
Q: How should I clean and care for it? A: Wipe the metal gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth; avoid chemical dips or abrasive polishes intended for sterling silver. For the braided cord, lightly wipe with a barely damp cloth and let it air‑dry away from heat. Store flat in the dust bag, away from humidity and direct sunlight.
Q: Is it appropriate to wear a rosary‑style necklace as jewellery? A: This is a fashion piece inspired by rosary design. Views differ culturally and religiously; many wear such designs as jewellery, while others prefer they be used only devotionally. Consider the setting and local customs, and wear with respect.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Included items are listed in the product information section. For this piece, a box and dust bag are included.
Q: Where and when was it made? A: The country of origin label is Italy and the piece is from the 2000s.
Q: How do you authenticate and describe the condition? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully authenticated by our in‑house experts. This necklace is in Very Good condition with light signs of use; the hardware is shiny with light scratches. See the product information for the full condition report.
