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 this bracelet made from? A: This vintage Vivienne Westwood Orb bracelet has a silver-tone plated finish with multicoloured enamel and crystal detailing. Many Orb bracelets from the brand are commonly crafted in rhodium-plated brass rather than solid sterling silver, though exact compositions can vary by season and era.
Q: Does the metal tarnish or fade over time? A: As with most plated or silver-finished jewellery, light tarnish or dulling can occur, especially with moisture, perfume, lotions or sweat. Wipe it after wear with a soft, dry cloth, store it in a pouch away from humidity and avoid abrasive polishes or chemical dips to preserve the plating and stones.
Q: Can I wear it in the shower or while swimming? A: We recommend removing it before showering, swimming or exercising. Water, soaps and chlorine can weaken plating, cloud crystals and compromise enamel or adhesives.
Q: Is it hypoallergenic or nickel free? A: Materials differ across collections and years, and vintage pieces may contain trace nickel. Most modern jewellery is produced to meet EU nickel‑release limits, but sensitivity varies by person. If you have known metal allergies, consider sterling silver styles or consult a jeweller for a patch test before prolonged wear.
Q: What wrist size will it fit and is it adjustable? A: The inner circumference is approximately 15 cm (about 5.9 in). For comfort, measure your wrist snugly and allow around 0.5–1 cm of ease. The lobster clasp can usually be fastened to an earlier link to shorten slightly; a jeweller can add a small extender if you need extra length.
Q: What does the Vivienne Westwood Orb symbol represent? A: The Orb combines the British Sovereign’s Orb with Saturn’s rings and became a house signature in the late 1980s. It appears here in a crystal‑set, enamelled motif.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under product information. This listing notes no additional items, so the purchase is for the bracelet only.
Q: What is the condition of this piece? A: Very Good overall, with minor marks on the hardware and light scratches from gentle wear. Please review the photos for details.
Q: How do you authenticate this bracelet? A: Each item at A Retro Tale is authenticated by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, construction and brand markings. We stand behind the authenticity of every piece we sell and can share further details on request.
Q: Can crystals or enamel be repaired if damaged? A: Small crystals can often be replaced and enamel professionally touched up by a skilled jeweller. Any work should be carried out carefully to protect the plating; feasibility and cost depend on the specific repair.
