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 is the bracelet made of? Is it solid gold? A: Céline fashion jewellery is typically crafted in brass with a gold finish (gold‑tone). Solid gold pieces are clearly hallmarked (for example 18k/750). This vintage charm bracelet features gold‑tone hardware as noted in the product information, so it is not solid gold.
Q: What wrist size will a 20 cm perimeter fit? A: As a guide, add about 1–1.5 cm to your wrist measurement for a comfortable fit. A 20 cm bracelet generally suits wrists around 18–19 cm depending on whether you prefer a snug or relaxed fit. The chain is approximately 4 mm wide and secures with a toggle clasp.
Q: Can the size be adjusted? A: Yes. A jeweller can remove a chain link for a shorter fit, or you may add a discreet extender to increase length. Toggle‑fastened pieces need a little slack to pass the bar through the ring, so keep at least about 1 cm of ease when resizing.
Q: Is the toggle clasp secure for everyday wear? A: Toggle clasps are secure when the bracelet is correctly sized and the bar is proportionate to the ring. Heavier curb chains tend to hold toggles more reliably. For extra peace of mind, a jeweller can add a safety chain or convert the closure to a lobster clasp.
Q: Will the gold‑tone finish tarnish or fade? A: Brass with a gold finish can develop patina and the plating may show wear with time—this is normal for vintage fashion jewellery. Minimise moisture, fragrance, lotions and sweat, and store the bracelet dry to preserve the finish. Light surface scratches are expected; this piece is graded Very Good with shiny hardware and scratches.
Q: How should I clean and care for it? A: After wear, wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth. For occasional cleaning, use lukewarm water with a drop of mild soap, rinse briefly and dry thoroughly. Avoid abrasive polishes, strong chemical dips and ultrasonic cleaners, which can strip plating. Store in a soft pouch, away from humidity and direct sunlight.
Q: What do the charms represent? A: The bracelet features Céline logo elements and the Triomphe motif, which was inspired by the ornamental chains around Paris’s Arc de Triomphe and has been a house signature since the 1970s.
Q: How is authenticity verified for vintage Céline jewellery? A: A Retro Tale conducts multi‑point checks of materials, construction, stamps and logos. Many vintage pieces are stamped with marks such as “CELINE PARIS” and sometimes the country of manufacture. We stand behind the authenticity of every item we sell and can share additional details on request.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under the product information on this page. No additional items such as a box or card are listed for this piece—please contact us if you would like us to confirm what is included.
Q: Can I wear it while showering or swimming? A: It’s best to remove gold‑tone fashion jewellery before bathing, swimming, exercising or applying perfumes and lotions. Reducing exposure to water and chemicals helps the finish last longer and keeps the bracelet looking its best.
