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: Will this bracelet fit my wrist? A: This piece is best for wrists up to 18 cm in circumference. To check, measure your wrist snugly at the wrist bone and, depending on preference, add 0.5–1 cm for ease. If your wrist measures over 18 cm, this model may feel tight as it is not designed to be upsized.
Q: How does the closure work and is it secure? A: It fastens by passing the leather knot through the loop. When the fit is correct, the double‑strand sits close to the wrist and the knot stays in place during normal daily wear. As with all leather bracelets, we recommend removing it for sport or vigorous activity.
Q: Can the size be adjusted or resized? A: The bracelet is not made to be resized. Altering the knot or shortening the leather can compromise the design and integrity. A professional leather specialist may offer modifications, but this can affect originality and resale value, so we do not recommend it.
Q: Will the leather stretch or soften over time? A: Intrecciato leather will soften and mould slightly to your wrist with wear, offering a more comfortable feel. It should not be intentionally stretched; moisture and heat can distort leather and are best avoided.
Q: How should I care for the leather and hardware? A: Wipe after wear with a soft, dry cloth. Keep away from water, perfumes, lotions, oils and prolonged sunlight or heat. If needed, use a barely damp cloth for the leather and allow it to air‑dry naturally; avoid soaking or harsh cleaners. The silver‑tone hardware should be wiped gently—do not use abrasive polishes that could mark the finish. Store flat or loosely coiled in a breathable pouch, separate from other jewellery.
Q: Can I wear it in the shower or while swimming? A: No. Leather is sensitive to moisture. Water exposure can cause darkening, stiffness, odour and possible colour transfer onto light clothing. Remove the bracelet before washing hands, showering, swimming or exercise.
Q: What is Intrecciato leather? A: Intrecciato is Bottega Veneta’s signature hand‑woven leather technique, developed to create a supple yet durable surface with a distinctive, understated texture—ideal for everyday jewellery and small leather goods.
Q: What exactly is the hardware made of? A: This vintage bracelet features silver‑tone metal hardware as noted on the product page. It is not listed as sterling silver. If you have metal sensitivities, please contact us for more details before purchasing.
Q: What will I receive with my order? A: Everything included is listed under the product information on this page. If an item such as a dust bag or box is not mentioned there, it is not included. Feel free to ask us if you need clarification.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this piece? A: Every item is carefully vetted by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, weave, construction, stamps and hardware, supported by brand‑specific reference data. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can share additional product information on request.
