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.

Q: What is the Hermès Carrousel necklace design? A: The Carrousel line reinterprets Hermès’ equestrian heritage with a stylised horse profile. This piece features a two-part pendant in black and silver tones on a link chain with a toggle clasp, creating a clean, graphic look.
Q: What are the size and fit like? A: The chain is approximately 50 cm in length, sitting around the collarbone on most wearers, and the pendant is about 2.5 cm across with a depth of roughly 0.5 cm. Please refer to the Measurements on this page and our photos for exact proportions on this specific piece.
Q: Is the chain length adjustable? A: The Carrousel necklace is typically a fixed length and fastens with a front toggle clasp. If you prefer a shorter drop, a jeweller can add an extra jump ring or you can layer it with other chains to adjust the look.
Q: How secure is the toggle clasp for everyday wear? A: Toggle clasps are designed to be easy to fasten and are secure when the bar is fully inserted and turned in the ring. As they do not “lock” like lobster or box clasps, we recommend avoiding vigorous activity or snagging to keep the necklace safely in place.
Q: What materials are used in Carrousel necklaces? A: Carrousel models are commonly crafted in lacquered or enamelled metal with palladium‑plated hardware, and many versions feature natural horn elements. Colours and patterning can vary slightly from piece to piece. This particular necklace has a black and silver two‑part pendant with silver‑tone hardware—see our images for the exact finish.
Q: How should I care for the enamel/lacquer and metal parts? A: Avoid contact with perfume, cosmetics, and chlorinated or salt water; remove before exercising, swimming, or showering; and keep away from extreme heat. Wipe gently with a soft, clean cloth after wear and store separately in a pouch to prevent scratches.
Q: Can Hermès service or repair this necklace if needed? A: Hermès offers in‑store assessment for jewellery maintenance and repairs. Services and turnaround depend on the specific issue (for example, surface marks versus deeper damage to enamel or horn). Your local Hermès boutique can advise on options and timeframes.
Q: Is this necklace unisex? A: Yes. The minimalist, equestrian‑inspired design and 50 cm chain length suit a wide range of personal styles and can be worn by all genders.
Q: What accessories are included and how do you authenticate it? A: This item is listed as coming with no accessories unless otherwise stated under Accessories on this page. Every piece at A Retro Tale undergoes rigorous, multi‑point authentication by our in‑house experts before it is offered for sale.
