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 the Georg Jensen Moonlight Grape Necklace made of? A: It is crafted in solid 925 sterling silver. Georg Jensen silver pieces are typically hallmarked to indicate sterling purity and origin, with marks such as 925 S and Georg Jensen/Denmark depending on the era. This vintage example dates to 1996 and presents in silver.
Q: What are the measurements of this necklace? A: The necklace length is approximately 40 cm and the grape cluster pendant height is approximately 3 cm. Please see the product information on this page for the full measurement details.
Q: Is the chain length adjustable on this vintage version? A: This piece measures 40 cm overall. Adjustment options can vary by production year and design; if you need extra length, a simple extender can be added by most jewellers. Please refer to the product information for the exact closure and length on this item.
Q: Can I wear this necklace in the shower, pool, or at the gym? A: It is best to remove sterling silver jewellery before showering, swimming, sleeping, or exercising. Chlorine, soaps, and perspiration can accelerate tarnish and dull the finish, and knocks can scratch the surface.
Q: How should I clean and store the necklace? A: Polish occasionally with a soft jewellery polishing cloth and store it separately in a lined box or pouch. Avoid silver dip solutions or harsh cleaners, as they can corrode the surface and cause faster tarnishing. Put the necklace on after applying perfume, hairspray, and cosmetics.
Q: The silver looks darker in some areas—is that normal? A: Yes. Many Georg Jensen designs use an intentionally oxidised finish in crevices to give depth to the form. Over‑polishing can remove this effect, so clean gently and avoid abrasive methods to preserve the intended contrast.
Q: Will sterling silver tarnish over time? A: Sterling silver naturally develops a patina with exposure to air, moisture, and everyday products. Regular gentle wear and occasional polishing help keep the surface bright; storing it dry and away from chemicals slows tarnish.
Q: Is sterling silver safe for sensitive skin or nickel allergies? A: Sterling silver is 92.5% pure silver; the remaining alloy is most commonly copper and is generally nickel‑safe. However, sensitivities vary and trace alloys can differ by maker and era, so people with severe metal allergies should patch‑test and discontinue wear if irritation occurs.
Q: How can I identify authentic Georg Jensen hallmarks on vintage silver? A: Authentic pieces typically show Georg Jensen’s maker’s mark (often the Georg Jensen name within an oval or dotted cartouche), the sterling mark 925 S, and Denmark or a design/model number. Hallmarks are usually on the reverse or near the clasp. Every item at A Retro Tale is also thoroughly authenticated by our in‑house experts.
Q: What is the design inspiration behind Moonlight Grapes? A: The collection reinterprets early Georg Jensen grape motifs from the house archives, translating organic, Art Nouveau‑inspired forms into contemporary jewellery with sculptural silver beads.
