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 the Hermès Kelly Scarf Ring used for? A: It is designed to hold and style a silk scarf without creating a bulky knot. This Kelly-inspired version also adds a decorative jewellery-like finish with its chain, padlock and key details.
Q: Which scarf sizes does it suit best? A: It works best with silk scarves that can be folded into a slim band. Hermès describes many of its scarf rings as suitable for scarf or 90 scarf formats, and collectors often find standard rings easiest to use with classic 90 cm carrés. Smaller scarves can also work if folded neatly, while thicker shawls may feel too bulky.
Q: How do I use a scarf ring like this? A: Fold or roll your scarf into a narrow strip, slide one or both ends through the ring, then adjust the drape at the neck, on a bag handle or at the waist. Pull gently so the silk glides smoothly and the ring sits flat.
Q: What are the measurements of this piece? A: According to this listing, it measures approximately 10 cm in height, 2.5 cm in width and 1 cm in depth. The ring itself is compact, while the longer drop comes from the decorative hanging details.
Q: What colour and finish does this item have? A: This example has a silver-tone finish with vintage styling. The hardware is described as shiny with light scratches, which is consistent with careful pre-owned wear.
Q: What condition is it in? A: It is listed in Very Good Condition. The hardware remains shiny and shows light surface scratches from normal vintage use.
Q: Does it come with a box, dust bag or other extras? A: No. The product information for this listing states that no accompanying items are included, so it is being sold as the scarf ring only.
Q: Where was it made, and is it vintage? A: The country of origin is listed as France, and this piece is described as vintage.
Q: How should I care for a vintage scarf ring? A: Wipe it gently with a soft, dry cloth after use and store it separately so it does not rub against silk or other metal pieces. Avoid moisture, perfume and abrasive cleaners, and seek professional care if deeper restoration is ever needed.
Q: How is authenticity handled for a pre-owned Hermès piece? A: Hermès advises that items bought outside its official points of sale cannot be verified by the brand itself. For that reason, trusted secondary-market authentication is important; A Retro Tale states that its items are rigorously vetted by in-house experts before sale.
