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 16.5 cm bracelet suit?
A: The inner circumference is approximately 16.5 cm (about 6.5 in). For a comfortable closed‑bracelet fit, most people add 1–1.5 cm to their wrist measurement. This size usually fits wrists around 15–15.5 cm for a standard fit; at 16 cm it will feel snug, and at 14–14.5 cm it will drape a little more. To check, measure your wrist with a soft tape or a string and ruler.
Q: What does Intrecciato mean in this bracelet?
A: Intrecciato is Bottega Veneta’s signature woven motif, developed in the 1970s for leather goods and now reinterpreted in metal. On this piece, the pattern is expressed in sterling silver for a refined, textured look.
Q: What is the metal and will it tarnish?
A: It is 925 sterling silver (92.5% pure silver). Bottega Veneta notes an anti‑tarnish treatment on their sterling silver jewellery; however, silver can naturally develop a light patina over time. Gently polish with a soft cloth to restore shine.
Q: How do I open and close the push clasp?
A: To open, press the small push‑button on the clasp and pull the ends apart gently—no twisting. To close, align the two sides and push until you feel or hear a click. Avoid forcing the mechanism to preserve the spring and catch.
Q: Can this bracelet be resized?
A: Sterling silver can sometimes be adjusted by a professional jeweller, but pieces with an integrated push clasp or fixed links often have limited resizing options. Minor adjustments may be possible depending on construction; we recommend consulting a trusted jeweller if you need a different fit.
Q: Is it suitable for daily wear?
A: Yes, sterling silver is durable for everyday use. For longevity, remove before swimming, showering, gym sessions or household cleaning, and avoid contact with perfumes, lotions and chlorinated or salt water.
Q: How should I care for and store it?
A: After wear, wipe with a soft, dry cloth. If needed, wash briefly with mild soap and water, then dry thoroughly. Store separately in a cool, dry place—ideally in an anti‑tarnish pouch or lined box—away from direct heat or prolonged sunlight.
Q: What is the condition of this vintage piece?
A: Very Good overall, with light traces of use. The silver is shiny with light surface scratches, consistent with gentle wear. Please review the photos for close‑ups before purchasing.
Q: What is included with the item?
A: Everything that comes with the bracelet is listed in the product information on this page. If a dust bag, box or other items are not listed there, they are not included.

A: Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously vetted by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, construction, hallmarks/engraving and brand signatures. We stand behind the authenticity of all items and can share additional product information on request.
