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: How long is the necklace and where will it sit on the neck? A: The perimeter is approximately 41 cm (about 16 in), which typically wears like a choker sitting at the base of the neck. For a comfortable fit, measure your neck and add 2–5 cm; if you prefer it a touch looser, a small extender can be added.
Q: Is this solid silver or silver-tone? A: It is silver-tone plated fashion jewellery, not solid sterling silver. Givenchy’s vintage costume pieces are usually plated over base metal and set with crystals or rhinestones unless specifically hallmarked for precious metal.
Q: Are the stones glass rhinestones and are they delicate? A: Yes—vintage Givenchy pieces commonly use glass crystals/rhinestones. Many are foil-backed to enhance sparkle, so they are sensitive to moisture and harsh chemicals. Apply perfume, hairspray, and lotions before putting on the necklace and avoid exposing the stones to water.
Q: How should I clean and care for this necklace? A: Avoid soaking or ultrasonic cleaners. Instead, gently dry‑brush around the settings with a soft, clean brush; if needed, use a barely damp cotton swab with mild soap on metal areas only, keeping liquid away from the back of the stones. Dry thoroughly and store in a soft pouch, away from humidity and direct sunlight.
Q: Is the length adjustable? A: The hook closure typically allows minor adjustability by fastening into different end links. If you need extra length, you can add a detachable extender chain; these are widely available and easy to use.
Q: Are any stones missing and can they be replaced? A: As noted in the product information, a few stones are missing. A skilled jeweller or vintage costume jewellery restorer can often source and set period‑appropriate rhinestones, though exact colour and cut matches are not always guaranteed. We do not perform in‑house repairs.
Q: Is the necklace signed by Givenchy? A: Most vintage Givenchy jewellery is signed—common plaques read “Givenchy”, “GIVENCHY Paris” or “Givenchy Paris New York”. Please refer to the product photos for any hallmark close‑ups specific to this piece.
Q: Is it suitable for sensitive skin? A: As a vintage plated piece, the base metal composition is unknown and may contain nickel. If you have a known metal sensitivity, consider limiting direct skin contact (for example, wearing it over clothing) or using a jewellery barrier product. Discontinue wear if irritation occurs.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed in the product information on this page. This piece comes with a box as stated there.
Q: How do you authenticate this item? A: Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes rigorous multi‑point authentication by our in‑house experts, including examination of materials, construction, plating, rhinestones, signature plaques and period‑correct hardware. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can provide additional details on request.
