Ideal for cocktail parties, gallery openings, or a polished office look, this Hermès Clic H bracelet in Bordeaux enamel with palladium-plated hardware lends refined elegance from day to night.
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 size is this Clic H bracelet and how does it fit?
A: This piece is measured by A Retro Tale at a 17 cm inner perimeter (often aligned with PM/small sizing). Hermès lists the Clic H small as suited to around a 16 cm wrist; fit also depends on wrist shape and how snug you prefer it. If in doubt, measure your wrist just above the wrist bone and compare to these figures or contact us for personalised advice.
Q: How do I open and close the H clasp safely?
A: Slide the bracelet over your wrist, gently press both ends together, then rotate the H until it sits straight to lock. To remove, rotate the H slightly so it unhooks and the sides release. Avoid forcing the mechanism.
Q: What materials and finish does this bracelet have?
A: It features Bordeaux (burgundy) enamel with palladium‑plated hardware and Hermès’ signature hinged H pivot clasp. Hermès enamel is glass‑based, so it should be handled with care to avoid knocks.
Q: Can I wear it in the shower, pool or during exercise?
A: We do not recommend it. Hermès advises keeping jewellery away from water, perfumes, lotions and vigorous activity. Wipe with a soft, dry cloth after wear and store in a dry place.
Q: Is the Clic H adjustable or resizable?
A: No. The Clic H is a hinged metal bangle and is not designed to be resized. If you need assistance with fit or function, Hermès after‑sales can assess the piece and advise on available services.
Q: What is the difference between the Clic H and the Clic Clac H?
A: Both use the rotating H clasp, but the Clic H is the narrower style (about 12 mm wide) designed for sleek stacking, while the Clic Clac H is wider (about 20 mm) for a bolder look. Both typically come in PM (small) and GM (large) sizes.
Q: Will the enamel or hardware scratch with daily wear?
A: Fine surface marks on plated hardware are normal over time, and enamel can chip if impacted. Minimise rubbing against watches or other bangles, avoid hard knocks, and follow Hermès care guidance. This pre‑loved piece is noted as very good with light marks consistent with gentle wear.
Q: What is included with this item?
A: Everything included is listed under the product information section on this page. For this specific listing, there are no additional items included.
Q: How do you authenticate this bracelet?
A: Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously authenticated by our in‑house experts. Genuine Clic H bracelets have crisp Hermès engravings, Made in France markings and precise hinge/enamel quality. We are happy to provide extra photos or details on request.
Q: Can Hermès repair enamel chips or worn plating?
A: Hermès offers after‑sales services for jewellery on a case‑by‑case basis. Bring or send the bracelet to an Hermès boutique for assessment; available repairs, lead times and costs vary by location and condition.
