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 will it sit when worn? A: The chain measures 80 cm (approximately 31.5 inches), an opera length that typically sits around the bust. It can be worn long or layered with shorter pieces for a statement look.
Q: Can I shorten or adjust the length without permanently altering it? A: You can style it shorter by doubling it (if comfortable) or by using a removable necklace shortener/clip. For a permanent change, a professional jeweller can remove links. Avoid forcing the toggle through smaller chain links; it is designed to pass through the end ring of the clasp only.
Q: What materials is this vintage piece likely made from? A: As a vintage costume‑jewellery piece, it has a gold‑tone finish applied over a base metal typical of the era. The exact alloy is not specified for this item, which is normal for vintage fashion jewellery.
Q: Is it hypoallergenic or nickel‑free? A: Nickel content cannot be guaranteed for vintage gold‑tone jewellery. If you have sensitive skin, consider limiting direct skin contact, applying a clear jewellery barrier to contact points, or wearing it over clothing.
Q: How should I care for gold‑tone vintage jewellery? A: Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth after wear. Keep away from water, perfume, lotions and household chemicals to preserve the plating. Store it separately in a soft pouch in a cool, dry place. For occasional deeper cleaning, use a barely damp cloth and dry immediately; do not soak.
Q: Can the gold‑tone finish be refreshed if it shows wear? A: Yes. Many jewellers offer professional replating for costume jewellery. Results depend on the base metal and existing wear, and any stones or engravings are typically masked during the process. Costs and lead times vary by workshop.
Q: Is this necklace authentic Givenchy? A: Yes. Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully authenticated by our in‑house experts. Authentic vintage Givenchy jewellery often features maker’s marks (for example, Givenchy or Givenchy Paris/New York), and some late‑1970s pieces include a date plaque. Markings vary by era; we stand behind the authenticity of everything we sell.
Q: What era is this from? A: It is listed as vintage. Givenchy introduced jewellery in the late 1960s and many highly collectible designs date from the 1980s–1990s. This listing does not specify an exact production year.
Q: What will be included with my purchase and what is the condition? A: Delivered as pictured with no accessories. Overall in very good vintage condition with light traces of use; the hardware is shiny with light scratches.
