The bold crescent pendant stands out against a silk blouse or little black dress, while the adjustable fine chain makes layering effortless.
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: Is the Saint Laurent Moon Necklace solid gold? A: No. This piece is crafted in gold‑tone metal typical of Saint Laurent fashion jewellery, which is usually brass with a gold‑coloured finish rather than solid gold. It offers the look of gold without the care requirements or price of fine gold jewellery.
Q: What are the measurements and how will it sit when worn? A: The chain measures approximately 70 cm and is adjustable via the lobster clasp. On most people, around 70 cm is an opera‑length drop that sits on or just below the bust. The crescent pendant is roughly 6 × 5 × 0.4 cm, creating a statement look.
Q: Is the length adjustable? A: Yes. The fine chain closes with an adjustable lobster clasp, allowing small length tweaks for layering or neckline changes. For larger adjustments, a trusted jeweller can add a short extender or shorten the chain if desired.
Q: Will the finish tarnish, and is it suitable for everyday wear? A: Gold‑tone brass can gently dull or develop a light patina with time. You can wear it frequently if you follow good care: avoid moisture and chemicals, wipe after wear with a soft dry cloth, and store it carefully to minimise rubbing.
Q: Can I wear it in the shower, swimming, or at the gym? A: We recommend removing this necklace before bathing, swimming (especially in chlorinated pools), or exercise. Water, soaps, chlorine and sweat can accelerate wear on plated/gold‑tone finishes and dull the shine.
Q: How should I clean and care for it? A: After each wear, gently wipe with a soft, lint‑free cloth. For an occasional deeper clean, lightly dampen a cloth with lukewarm water and a drop of mild soap, wipe carefully, then dry thoroughly. Avoid abrasive polishes, jewellery dips, ultrasonic cleaners and prolonged soaking, which can strip plating. Store it clasped in its box or dust bag, away from humidity and direct sunlight.
Q: Is it hypoallergenic or nickel‑free? A: Because fashion jewellery is typically brass with plated finishes, we cannot guarantee it is nickel‑free. If you have sensitivities, limit prolonged wear, keep the piece dry and clean, and discontinue use if any irritation occurs.
Q: What comes with this item? A: This necklace is supplied with a box and a dust bag as listed under Accessories on this page.
Q: Is this a current‑season piece? A: This is a vintage Saint Laurent necklace in very good pre‑owned condition with minor marks on the material, as noted in the description. It is not a current‑season production item.
Q: How do you authenticate this necklace? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is thoroughly inspected by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, construction, stamps/engravings and overall workmanship. We stand behind the authenticity of all items and are happy to provide additional details on request.
