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 approximately 70 cm in perimeter, which typically sits around the mid-chest on most wearers. Please refer to the Perimeter Necklace detail on this page for confirmation.
Q: Is the length adjustable or suitable to double around the neck? A: This style is designed as a long necklace and is not intended to be adjustable or doubled. The toggle clasp sets the length as shown; if you prefer a shorter look, we recommend layering with shorter chains instead.
Q: How secure is the toggle clasp for everyday wear? A: Toggle clasps are generally reliable when correctly sized and fastened. Always pass the bar fully through the ring and let it sit horizontally, and avoid vigorous activity that could jolt the clasp. A quick check before wearing and after layering helps ensure it stays secure.
Q: What materials are typical for vintage Givenchy pieces like this? A: Most vintage Givenchy costume jewellery is crafted in gold‑plated base metal with quality plating and a signature stamp. This piece has a gold‑tone finish with a heart‑shaped pendant engraved with the Givenchy logo, as stated in the product information.
Q: How should I care for the gold‑tone plating? A: Keep it dry and avoid contact with water, perfume, lotions, and household chemicals. After wearing, gently wipe with a soft, dry cloth. For a deeper clean, use a tiny amount of mild soap in lukewarm water on a soft cloth, then pat dry thoroughly. Do not use abrasive polishes, silver dips, or ultrasonic cleaners. Store separately in a soft pouch to minimise scratches.
Q: Will the colour fade or the plating wear over time? A: Normal micro‑scratches and gradual dulling can occur with plated vintage jewellery, especially with frequent exposure to moisture, friction, and cosmetics. A careful wear-and-care routine will help preserve the finish and lustre longer.
Q: Is it suitable for sensitive skin? A: As with many vintage fashion pieces, the base metal may contain alloys that can include nickel. If you have a known metal sensitivity, limit prolonged skin contact, wear the chain over clothing, or consider using a clear barrier on contact points. Discontinue wear if irritation occurs.
Q: Can the heart pendant be removed from the chain? A: On most vintage Givenchy toggle styles the pendant is integrated and not designed to be detached. If you need exact details for this piece, please contact us and we will confirm from the item in hand.
Q: What is included with my purchase? A: Everything included is listed under the product information on this page. If a branded box, dust bag, or certificate is not listed there, it is not included.
Q: How is authenticity verified? A: Our specialists inspect every piece using multi‑point checks of construction, plating quality, and signatures. Vintage Givenchy signatures vary by era (for example, Givenchy, Givenchy Paris, or Givenchy Paris New York). We are happy to share additional photos or details on request.
