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: What is this necklace made from? A: This Saint Laurent fashion piece is crafted in gold-tone metal. Saint Laurent jewellery is typically made from brass with a gold-coloured finish rather than solid gold; please see the product information on this page for the confirmed composition.
Q: Is the length adjustable and what size should I expect? A: Yes, it features an adjustable closure for a tailored fit. The listing notes Adjustable 50; please refer to the product information for the current length and drop.
Q: Can I wear it in the shower, pool or at the gym? A: We recommend removing gold-tone jewellery before showering, swimming or workouts. Water, soap, chlorine, salt and sweat can accelerate wear to the plated finish and dull its shine.
Q: How should I clean and care for the gold-tone finish? A: Wipe after wear with a soft, dry cloth. For a deeper clean, use lukewarm water with a drop of mild soap, rinse, and dry thoroughly. Avoid ultrasonic cleaners, abrasive cloths, silver dips, and chemicals in wipes or polishes. Apply perfumes and lotions before putting the necklace on, and store it separately in a soft pouch to minimise scratches.
Q: Will it tarnish or fade over time? A: Normal signs of wear can appear on plated finishes with regular use, especially on high‑friction areas like the clasp and chain links. Careful handling and proper storage significantly slow this.
Q: Is it suitable for sensitive skin? A: Items sold in the EU are subject to strict limits on nickel release, but some vintage pieces may predate current standards. If you have a known sensitivity, limit initial wear and discontinue use if irritation occurs.
Q: Can the length be permanently shortened or altered? A: The built‑in adjustability usually covers most fits. While a jeweller may be able to remove or alter links, modifications can affect the plating and originality, so we do not recommend structural changes.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under the product information on this page. If a dust bag, box or tag is not shown there, it is not included.
Q: How do you authenticate this Saint Laurent piece? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously vetted by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, construction and stamped markings. Typical indicators include clean, correctly placed YSL or Saint Laurent engravings and quality finishing. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell.
Q: What does Very Good condition mean here? A: This piece is graded Very Good, showing light traces of use consistent with age. The hardware remains shiny with minor surface scratches, as noted in the listing.
