Delivery & Returns
Q: What does the Cassandre motif represent? A: The Cassandre motif is Saint Laurent’s iconic interlocking YSL monogram. It is one of the house’s most recognisable signatures and gives this brooch its distinctive designer look.
Q: What is the finish of this brooch? A: This piece features gold-tone hardware with a textured YSL logo motif, giving it a polished vintage-inspired appearance.
Q: What size is this brooch? A: It measures approximately 7 cm in height, 2.5 cm in width and 0.5 cm in depth. It is a noticeable statement size that works well on a lapel, scarf or knitwear.
Q: How does the brooch fasten? A: It has a classic pin fastening. To wear it securely, guide the pin straight through the fabric and close the clasp fully before adjusting the position.
Q: What can I wear this brooch with? A: It looks especially good on blazer lapels, coats, scarves, structured knitwear and shirt collars. Denser fabrics usually help a brooch sit more securely and neatly.
Q: Will it leave marks on clothing? A: Like most pin-fastened brooches, it can leave a tiny puncture mark, especially on delicate fabrics. Wool, tweed and other structured materials are usually better choices than silk or very fine knits.
Q: What condition is this piece in? A: This brooch is listed in Very Good Condition. The hardware remains shiny and shows light surface scratches consistent with gentle previous wear.
Q: Does it come with any original product information? A: No, this vintage piece is sold without any original product information included.
Q: How should I care for and store it? A: Wipe it gently with a soft, dry cloth after wear. Avoid direct contact with perfume, water, chlorine and harsh cleaners, and store it separately with the pin closed to help protect the finish and prevent scratches or snags.
Q: How do you authenticate vintage Saint Laurent jewellery? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is inspected by in-house experts using multi-point checks of materials, construction, hardware and brand details. We stand behind the authenticity of every item we sell.
