Ideal for smart‑casual dinners or weekend brunches, this vintage Hermès Artemis leather bracelet in brown with white contrast stitching and gold‑tone hardware adds understated elegance to everything from a crisp shirt to tailored knitwear.
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 wrist size does this Hermès Artemis bracelet fit? A: This adjustable leather bracelet is best suited to wrists up to 15.5 cm, with multiple buckle holes providing a snug, comfortable fit for smaller wrists as well. If you are between sizes, we recommend measuring your wrist close to the bone and allowing a little ease for comfort.
Q: How does the Artemis buckle fasten and is it secure? A: The Artemis closes like a miniature belt: the tang passes through one of the pre‑punched holes and the strap is secured flat. This style is designed for everyday wear and offers a secure closure when fastened properly.
Q: Is the hardware real gold? A: The hardware is gold‑tone. On Hermes leather bracelets of this type, the metal is typically gold‑plated over a base metal rather than solid gold. To preserve the finish, avoid abrasion and contact with perfumes, lotions or alcohol‑based products.
Q: Can I get the bracelet wet? A: It’s best to avoid moisture. Leather can darken or warp and plated hardware may dull with repeated exposure to water. If the bracelet is splashed, gently pat dry with a soft cloth and allow it to air dry away from direct heat.
Q: How should I care for the leather and stitching? A: Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth after wear. Keep away from prolonged sunlight, oils, makeup and solvents. Store the bracelet flat in a breathable pouch or box, avoiding pressure against the buckle to prevent imprints on the leather and stitching.
Q: Will stacking it with other bracelets cause wear? A: Stacking is popular, but contact with metal or enamel pieces can cause rubbing marks on leather and light micro‑scratches on plated hardware. Rotate your stack and leave a little space between pieces to minimise friction.
Q: Is this style unisex and which wrist should I wear it on? A: Yes, the clean leather strap and buckle design is unisex. Wear it on either wrist—many prefer the non‑dominant wrist for comfort when typing or using a mouse.
Q: How do you authenticate this bracelet? A: Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes multi‑point authentication by our in‑house experts, examining leather quality, stitching, hardware, stamps and overall craftsmanship. Many Hermès leather goods also feature a discreet blind stamp indicating the year and artisan; placement can vary by model and era.
Q: What accessories are included with this item? A: Everything included is listed on this page under Accessories. This specific piece is sold without accessories. If you need clarification, please contact us.
Q: What are the key measurements and how does it wear under sleeves? A: The strap is approximately 2.5 cm wide with a slim profile, so it sits close to the wrist. It will slide comfortably under most knit and shirt cuffs while still reading as a statement piece.
