* 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 is the chain length and fit of this necklace? A: The chain measures approximately 45 cm and closes with an adjustable lobster clasp, allowing small length adjustments to suit different necklines.
Q: What is it made from? A: Saint Laurent fashion jewellery is typically crafted from gold‑tone plated metal, commonly brass. This vintage piece features a gold‑tone finish with the signature YSL Cassandre pendant and is made in Italy.
Q: Is the Cassandre pendant removable? A: No. This design is intended to be worn as one piece; the pendant is not designed to be detached from the chain.
Q: Will the gold‑tone finish tarnish or fade over time? A: Plated finishes can gently dull or show wear with regular use, especially if exposed to moisture, perfume, lotions, or friction. Wipe with a soft, dry cloth after wear, store in a pouch, and avoid contact with water and chemicals to preserve the finish.
Q: Can I shower or swim while wearing it? A: We do not recommend wearing plated jewellery in the shower, pool, or sea. Water, chlorine, and salt accelerate fading and may cause discolouration of the base metal.
Q: Is it hypoallergenic or nickel‑free? A: We cannot guarantee it is nickel‑free. Many designer fashion pieces are brass with a plated finish and may contain trace nickel. If you have sensitivity, consider limiting wear time, wearing it over clothing, or applying a clear jewellery barrier to areas that contact skin.
Q: Can the finish be refreshed if it shows wear? A: Yes. A professional jeweller can re‑plate gold‑tone brass. Results vary by workshop and may subtly change the original tone, so discuss expectations before proceeding.
Q: What accessories are included with this item? A: This necklace is sold as photographed with no accessories. If an item such as a box, dust bag, or paperwork is not listed under Accessories, it is not included.
Q: What should I know about the condition? A: It is in very good overall condition with some scratches on the charm, consistent with gentle wear. Please review the images and Condition notes for full details.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this piece? A: Every item is examined by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, construction, hardware, logos, and stamps. We stand behind the authenticity of everything we sell and are happy to provide additional details on request.
