Q: What are the dimensions of this piece? A: Approx. 5 × 3 × 0.5 cm. It’s a compact, statement logo brooch that sits neatly on a lapel, coat, scarf or structured knit.
Q: How do I care for and clean a gold‑tone/brass brooch? A: Wipe after wear with a soft, dry cloth. For light build‑up, use a barely damp cloth with a drop of mild soap, then dry thoroughly.

Delivery & Returns
Q: What is this Saint Laurent brooch made of? A: Saint Laurent logo brooches are typically crafted in gold‑tone metal (often brass) with a secure pin fastening. This vintage piece features gold‑tone hardware and the signature YSL Cassandre monogram.
Q: Is it solid gold or gold‑plated? A: It is gold‑tone metal rather than solid gold. Like most plated/brass pieces, the finish can gently dull or develop a light patina over time with normal wear.
Q: What are the dimensions of this piece? A: Approx. 5 × 3 × 0.5 cm. It’s a compact, statement logo brooch that sits neatly on a lapel, coat, scarf or structured knit.
Q: How secure is the fastening and how should I use it? A: It has a bar pin with a safety clasp for everyday wear. Push the pin through the fabric, close the clasp fully, and check that the brooch sits flat. For best results, pierce between threads rather than through them.
Q: Which fabrics work best for brooches? A: Dense, structured fabrics such as wool, tweed, denim and heavier cotton weaves are ideal. Avoid very delicate silks, chiffon and open knits where pins can leave noticeable holes or snags. If you’d like to wear it on finer fabrics, place a small piece of felt on the inside or use a magnetic converter to avoid piercing.
Q: Where should I place it—does it have to be on the left? A: Tradition puts brooches on the left lapel, but modern styling is flexible. Try the lapel of a blazer or coat, at the neckline of a buttoned blouse, securing a scarf, or on a hat or bag for a directional look.
Q: How do I care for and clean a gold‑tone/brass brooch? A: Wipe after wear with a soft, dry cloth. For light build‑up, use a barely damp cloth with a drop of mild soap, then dry thoroughly. Avoid soaking, abrasive polishes, and contact with perfumes, lotions, and moisture. Store in a pouch, separate from other pieces, to minimise scratches and tarnish.
Q: Will the pin mark my clothes? A: Any pin can leave tiny holes in certain fabrics. Use the brooch on robust materials, pass the pin through seams or lapels where possible, and avoid forcing it through tight or delicate weaves. For special garments, consider a magnetic backing to prevent piercing.
Q: How do you verify authenticity for this item? A: Every piece at A Retro Tale is authenticated by our experts using multi‑point checks of materials, construction, and engravings. Genuine Saint Laurent jewellery typically features crisp, clean logo engraving and high‑quality finishing consistent with the house’s standards.
Q: What’s included with this brooch? A: The listing notes no accessories are included. Everything provided is always specified under Accessories on the product page.
