Q: Is this Céline Triomphe Necklace authentic? A: Yes. Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously vetted by our in‑house experts and sold with our authenticity commitment. Shop with confidence.
Q: What materials is it made from? Is it solid gold? A: This necklace is crafted from gold‑toned metal, likely gold‑plated brass, typical of vintage Céline costume jewellery. It is not solid gold. Please review the close‑up photos and features for the specific finish details, or contact us if you’d like confirmation of the exact composition.
Q: What are the measurements and how will it fit? A: The necklace has a perimeter of approximately 44 cm, which typically sits at the collarbone (princess length) for a classic look. The Triomphe motif measures about 1.3 cm in height. If you need more precise sizing or fit guidance, feel free to message us.
Q: How does the clasp work? A: This piece features a box clasp closure. This mechanism slides into place and clicks to secure the necklace. Always ensure the clasp is fully engaged before wearing to prevent loss.
Q: What hallmarks should I look for? A: Vintage Céline jewellery often bears the brand name “Céline Paris” and sometimes “Made in Italy” stamped on the clasp, a tag near the closure, or the back of the motif. Our listing photos will show any hallmarks present on this specific piece.
Q: Is it suitable for sensitive skin? Does it contain nickel? A: Vintage costume jewellery alloys may contain nickel. If you have metal sensitivities, we recommend monitoring comfort, applying a clear barrier to contact points, or wearing it over clothing. Discontinue use if irritation occurs.
Q: How should I care for the gold‑tone finish? A: To preserve the plating, keep the necklace dry and avoid direct contact with perfume, lotions, hairspray, and hand sanitiser. Wipe it gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth after wear. Store it separately in a pouch or box to prevent scratches and tangling.
Q: Can the necklace be resized or replated? A: A professional jeweller may be able to adjust the length or replate the metal if needed. We do not offer in‑house modifications, but we can suggest reputable specialists. Please note that alterations can affect the item’s originality and resale value.
Q: What is the condition of this item? A: This necklace is in Very Good Condition (Condition Score 353326), meaning it may show light signs of wear consistent with careful vintage use. Please refer to the detailed description and photos for a full assessment.
Q: What is included with the purchase? A: This listing includes the necklace itself; no accessories are included unless specifically shown in the images or stated in the description. Returns are accepted under our standard policy—please ensure the item is returned in the same condition received.
