Perfect for cocktail hours, gallery openings and chic dinners, this vintage Hermès cuff pairs multicolour charm with gold-tone accents and a black embossed leather inlay. Its open design slips on effortlessly, while the central knot lends a refined focal point to evening looks and polished daytime edits.
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 wrist size does this Hermès open cuff suit? A: The bracelet has a listed inner perimeter of 16 cm. As a guide, a cuff fits best when your wrist circumference (measured just below the wrist bone) is close to the bracelet’s inner perimeter; most wearers with wrists around 15–16 cm achieve a close, comfortable fit. If you prefer a looser fit, allow roughly 0.5–1 cm ease. Please compare with the Perimeter shown on this page.
Q: Is the cuff adjustable or resizable? A: Open cuffs are not designed for significant adjustment. Repeated squeezing or pulling can stress the metal plating and the leather inlay, which may lead to damage. If a tiny tweak is absolutely necessary, seek a professional jeweller’s help; do not attempt to reshape it at home.
Q: How should I put it on without stressing the bracelet? A: Slide the opening over the narrow side of your wrist at a slight angle, then turn into position. Avoid prying the ends apart or twisting the centre section, and take it off the same way to minimise strain on the plating and leather.
Q: Can I wear it in water or with perfume and lotions? A: It’s best to remove Hermès jewellery before swimming, showering or exercise and to avoid direct contact with perfumes, cosmetics, chlorinated or salt water. If contact occurs, gently rinse in clean, room‑temperature water and dry with a soft cloth. The leather inlay should be kept dry at all times.
Q: How do I clean and store the bracelet? A: After wear, wipe the metal carefully with a soft, clean cloth and let the leather air out away from heat. Do not use harsh cleaners or soaking methods. Store the bracelet separately in a pouch or box, away from humidity and direct sunlight, to prevent scratches or pressure on the leather knot detail.
Q: Will the gold‑tone finish scratch or fade? A: Plated finishes can develop micro‑scratches and gentle wear over time, especially at contact points. This vintage piece is graded Very Good Condition, so light surface marks consistent with age may be present. Proper storage and avoiding abrasion will help maintain its appearance.
Q: Can Hermès refurbish or re‑plate this bracelet? A: Hermès offers chargeable after‑sales services assessed case by case in store; availability for vintage fashion jewellery depends on the specific model and condition. Some services may not be possible. A Retro Tale cannot guarantee third‑party service decisions.
Q: How do you authenticate this bracelet? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is vetted by in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, engravings, construction and finish. Please note that Hermès does not authenticate items purchased outside its own boutiques and cannot verify pieces bought on the secondary market.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed in the product information on this page. If a branded box, pouch or paperwork is not shown there, it is not included.
Q: Is it unisex and how can I style it? A: Yes. The open cuff silhouette, gold‑tone finish and black embossed leather suit many personal styles. Wear it solo as a statement or stack with slim bangles or a watch in similar tones for an elevated layered look.
