CelineKnot Bracelet

Q: What is the Céline Knot Bracelet made of?
A: It is crafted in brass with a silver-tone rhodium finish and is nickel-free. This design is an open cuff with a central knot, made in Italy.

Q: What wrist size will this piece fit?
A: This bracelet measures approximately 15 cm in inner circumference. As a guide, Céline indicates that a medium fits wrists up to about 15.5 cm, while a small fits up to about 14.5 cm. Measure your wrist snugly and compare to ensure comfort, bearing in mind an open cuff slides on sideways over the narrowest part of the wrist.

Q: Is the cuff adjustable?
A: It is not designed for significant bending. Micro-adjustments should be done very gently and ideally by a professional. Repeated flexing can stress the metal and cause the plating to wear or the shape to distort.

Q: Will the silver-tone finish tarnish or fade?
A: Rhodium-plated finishes are highly resistant to tarnish, but any plated surface can dull or wear over time with friction, impact, or exposure to chemicals. With proper care, the shine lasts longer and pieces can be re-plated by a jeweller if ever required.

Q: How should I clean it?
A: After wear, wipe with a soft, dry cloth. If needed, use a little mild soap in lukewarm water, rinse briefly, and dry thoroughly. Avoid abrasive polishing cloths, silver dips, harsh cleaners, ultrasonic baths, or anything that could thin the plating.

Q: Can I wear it in the shower, pool, or at the gym?
A: We recommend removing it before bathing, swimming, or exercise. Moisture, chlorine, saltwater, lotions, and perspiration can accelerate wear to plated finishes and dull the shine.

Q: Is it suitable for sensitive skin?
A: Céline specifies their brass bracelets are nickel-free, which many sensitive-skin wearers prefer. However, sensitivities vary; if you are reactive to metals, try shorter wear times at first and keep the skin clean and dry beneath the cuff.

Q: Will it scratch, and how should I store it?
A: Plated surfaces can pick up light scratches with contact. Store it separately in a soft pouch, avoid stacking against harder pieces, and try to minimise knocks and friction during wear to preserve the finish.
