Q: What is the Vivienne Westwood Neysa Rhinestone Necklace made from? A: It is a costume jewellery piece typically crafted from brass with a silver-tone (platinum-tone) plated finish and set with clear crystals/rhinestones. This creates a bright, mirror-like shine while keeping the necklace lightweight and wearable.
Q: Is it solid sterling silver or real diamonds? A: No. The Neysa is silver-tone plated rather than solid sterling silver, and the stones are synthetic crystals/rhinestones, not natural diamonds. This is consistent with how most Vivienne Westwood fashion jewellery is produced.
Q: What are the measurements of the pendant and chain? A: The Orb and Cross pendant is approximately 4.7 cm high, 6 cm wide and 0.7 cm deep. The chain has an approximate perimeter of 48 cm, sitting around the collarbone for most wearers. Please refer to the Measurements on this page to confirm fit.
Q: Is the length adjustable? A: The necklace closes with a clasp. As with many curb-link styles, you can fasten to a different link for a small amount of adjustment, but it does not feature a long extender chain. If you prefer extra length, a separate necklace extender can be used.
Q: Will the plating or rhinestones tarnish or dull over time? A: Plated brass can show wear with regular exposure to moisture, sweat, perfumes or lotions, and rhinestones can lose sparkle if residue builds up. With mindful care and storage, you can keep the finish bright for longer.
Q: Can I wear it in the shower, at the gym or while swimming? A: We recommend removing it before bathing, swimming or exercising. Water, humidity and chemicals (including chlorine) can accelerate tarnish and may weaken stone settings or adhesives.
Q: How should I clean and store it? A: After wear, gently wipe with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive polishing. Store it in a cool, dry place—ideally in the included dust bag or box—separate from other pieces to prevent scratches and tangling.
Q: What comes with this item? A: This pre-owned piece includes its box and dust bag as listed under Accessories. If you need confirmation of what is included, please contact us before purchase.
Q: How do you authenticate this necklace? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously vetted by our in-house experts using multi-point checks of materials, construction, logos, stamps and overall craftsmanship. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and are happy to provide additional details on request.
Q: What is the overall condition of this necklace? A: It is in Very Good pre-owned condition with light traces of use, as noted on this page. Please review the photos for the most accurate view of wear.
