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 does the Ex‑Libris motif represent on this bracelet? A: Ex‑Libris means “from the books” and refers to traditional bookplates denoting ownership. Hermès adapts this idea into its historic horse‑and‑carriage seal, so the disc charms celebrate the house’s equestrian heritage and craftsmanship.
Q: What materials is this Hermès Ex‑Libris bracelet made from? A: The Ex‑Libris jewellery line is crafted from precious metals. Hermès specifies sterling silver (925/1000) and rose gold (750/1000) for this design. This particular piece is described in our product information as sterling silver with rose‑gold details and a fine link chain.
Q: Is the rose gold solid or plated? A: Hermès states that the rose‑gold elements in the Ex‑Libris design are 18‑carat gold (750/1000), paired with sterling silver (925/1000). It is not a gold‑tone plating in this model.
Q: What wrist size will it fit? A: It best fits wrists up to approximately 19 cm, as noted in our product information. For comfort, measure your wrist snugly and add about 1–1.5 cm. Chain bracelets can sometimes be shortened by a jeweller if needed.
Q: What kind of clasp does it have and is it secure for daily wear? A: This vintage piece features a spring ring clasp. Ensure the clasp clicks fully closed before wear and check it periodically. Like all fine jewellery, avoid snagging or heavy pulls.
Q: Will the sterling silver tarnish? How should I care for it? A: Sterling silver naturally oxidises over time. Hermès advises that regular wear actually slows tarnish and builds a beautiful patina. Clean gently with a soft, non‑abrasive cloth, avoid chemicals (perfume, chlorine, household cleaners), and store pieces separately in a dry place.
Q: Can I wear it in the shower or while swimming? A: We recommend removing it before bathing, swimming, or exercising. Soaps, chlorinated water, and saltwater can dull the finish over time, and knocks may cause unnecessary scratches.
Q: Can Hermès polish or adjust the bracelet later on? A: Hermès offers after‑sales maintenance and repair through its stores, and simple adjustments like shortening a chain are often possible via a professional jeweller. For brand‑specific work, visit an Hermès boutique for assessment.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under the product information on this page. For this piece, the box is included.
Q: How do you authenticate this bracelet? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is examined by in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, construction, and markings. For Hermès jewellery, we look for correct metal fineness stamps (for example 925 for silver, 750 for 18‑carat gold) and the Hermès signature, consistent with the brand’s standards.
