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 this necklace made from? A: Crafted in solid 925 sterling silver with a ball chain, a heart-shaped pendant featuring the Interlocking GG motif and engraved logo, and a lobster-clasp closure. It is made in Italy.
Q: What is the condition of this piece? A: Very Good overall. It shows signs of wear and tarnishing consistent with age and use, while the metal remains shiny with light surface scratches on the hardware.
Q: What is the chain length and how will it fit? A: The chain measures approximately 36 cm end to end. On most necks this sits as a close-fitting choker at the base of the neck. If you’re unsure, measure your neck with a soft tape and add 0–2 cm for your preferred fit.
Q: Can the length be adjusted? A: The ball chain is not designed for on-chain adjustment. If you need extra length, a sterling-silver necklace extender can be added by a jeweller or with a detachable extender to increase the drop without altering the original chain.
Q: Is it solid sterling silver or plated? A: It is solid 925 sterling silver (92.5% pure silver) rather than silver‑plated, in line with Gucci’s silver jewellery specifications.
Q: Will sterling silver tarnish, and how should I care for it? A: Yes. Sterling silver naturally darkens over time due to reactions with air, moisture and products like perfume or chlorine. After wearing, wipe it with a soft cloth and store it in an individual anti‑tarnish pouch. Avoid swimming, showering and exercising in it. For light tarnish, use a quality silver‑polishing cloth. For a deeper clean, use lukewarm water with a small amount of mild soap, rinse well and dry thoroughly. Avoid harsh chemical dips and ultrasonic cleaners, especially for vintage or engraved pieces.
Q: Is it suitable for sensitive skin? Is there nickel in it? A: Sterling silver is generally well tolerated and is typically alloyed with copper, not nickel. Jewellery sold in the UK/EU must comply with strict limits on nickel release. If you have a severe nickel sensitivity, individual reactions can vary—consider a short wear test and keep the piece clean and dry.
Q: What hallmarks or stamps should I expect to see? A: Typical markings include 925 (or Ag925), the Gucci signature, and Made in Italy. Marks are usually found on the clasp tag, the clasp itself, or the pendant bail. UK hallmarks appear only if a piece has been assayed in the UK and is above the legal weight threshold for silver; imported or older items may not carry UK assay marks.
Q: Is the pendant removable from the chain? A: The pendant is suspended from a bail on the ball chain. Whether it can be removed depends on the bail opening and bead diameter; to avoid damage, any alteration or swap should be done by a professional jeweller.
Q: What product information is included with this item? A: This listing shows no product information included (such as an original box or paperwork). Everything included is detailed in the Product information section on this page; if an item is not listed there, it is not included.
Q: How do you authenticate this necklace? A: Every piece at A Retro Tale is examined by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, construction, hallmarks and logos. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can provide additional details on request.
