Q: What materials is this bracelet made from?
A: This vintage Hermès bracelet is described as multicoloured woven silk with black leather trim and a brown leather logo charm. Hermès has also produced multistrand woven bracelets in silk twill with lambskin details, so the mix of silk and leather is true to the style.

Q: What size wrist will it fit?
A: The listed bracelet perimeter indicates a fit for a wrist measuring up to 22 cm. If your wrist is close to that measurement it will sit more closely, while on a smaller wrist it will feel a little looser. Comparing your own wrist circumference with the measurements on this page is the safest guide.

Q: Is each Hermès woven silk bracelet the same?
A: No. Hermès multistrand woven bracelets are known for variation in colour and composition, and vintage examples can differ further with age and previous wear. That means this multicoloured piece has an individual look rather than a uniform factory-fresh appearance.

Q: What condition is this bracelet in?
A: It is listed in Very Good condition with light traces of use. As a vintage piece, minor signs of age are normal and form part of its character, so the photos and measurements on this page give the best indication of its current appearance.

Q: How should I care for the silk and leather?
A: Keep the bracelet away from rain, perfumes, cosmetics and prolonged direct sunlight or heat. If the leather gets wet, gently blot it straight away with a soft lint-free cloth, and store the bracelet in a dry place away from humidity. For the silk sections, avoid water and chemicals and use a professional cleaner if deeper care is ever needed.

Q: Will the fit change with wear?
A: It can soften a little over time, especially where leather details are involved, so it is usually best not to choose extra slack on purpose. If you are close to the maximum wrist measurement, use your actual wrist size as the main guide rather than guessing from another bracelet style.

Q: What comes with this bracelet?
A: The product information for this listing states that it is delivered with no additional items. If you are hoping for a box, pouch or any original extras, please rely on the product information section for the exact inclusions shown for this piece.

Q: Can Hermès repair or refresh vintage jewellery?
A: Hermès states that its products can be maintained and, in many cases, repaired or freshened up by its craftspeople. Any service for a vintage bracelet would depend on inspection, the materials used and the current condition of the piece.
