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: Is this Hermès Amulet Kelly Silver Necklace authentic? A: Yes. Every piece at A Retro Tale is rigorously vetted by our in‑house experts and sold with our authenticity commitment. Shop with confidence.
Q: What is it made from? Is it solid silver or plated? A: This necklace is crafted in sterling silver (Ag 925), not silver‑plated, unless stated otherwise. Authentic Hermès silver jewellery typically carries sterling silver hallmarks—please review the close‑up photos of any stamps present on this piece.
Q: What is the length and will it fit me? A: Our listing shows a length of approximately 45 cm. Many Hermès chain necklaces are a fixed length; if you need the precise wearable range, pendant drop or the lock dimensions, message us and we’ll measure them for you. The listing notes a width of 4 cm—please see photos for how the pendant sits on the chest.
Q: How does it fasten? A: Hermès silver necklaces commonly use a spring‑ring or lobster clasp. Please refer to the close‑up images on this page to see the exact closure on this piece, or contact us and we’ll confirm.
Q: Is the Kelly lock pendant functional, or purely decorative? A: The Kelly lock on this style is a pendant motif inspired by Hermès’ iconic Kelly closure. It is intended as jewellery and not as a security lock for the chain. Design details can vary by model—check the photos for the pendant’s construction and movement.
Q: What hallmarks or stamps should I expect on Hermès sterling silver jewellery? A: Typical markings can include “Hermès” or “Hermès Paris” and a “925/Ag925” fineness stamp; some pieces may also have maker’s marks and/or country of origin. Placement varies by era and model. Our product photos show any hallmarks present on this necklace.
Q: Will sterling silver tarnish? How should I care for it? A: Sterling silver can naturally develop tarnish with exposure to air, moisture and cosmetics. Wipe after wear with a soft, dry microfibre or silver‑polishing cloth. Keep it dry and avoid perfume, lotions, hairspray and sanitiser. Do not soak, use chemical dips or ultrasonic cleaners. Store separately in a pouch or box; anti‑tarnish strips can help.
Q: Is sterling silver suitable for sensitive skin? Is it nickel‑free? A: Sterling silver is generally considered nickel‑free and well tolerated, though alloys can vary and individual sensitivities differ. If you have severe metal allergies, please contact us for any hallmark details and consider consulting your jeweller. Discontinue wear if irritation occurs.
Q: Can the chain be resized, extended or polished? Do you offer repairs? A: A professional jeweller can often add a short extender, shorten the chain slightly, replace a clasp, and perform light polishing to reduce surface micro‑scratches. Brand servicing for jewellery is at Hermès’ discretion and may vary by boutique. We don’t modify items in‑house but can recommend reputable specialists on request; note that alterations may affect originality and resale value.
Q: What condition should I expect, what is included, and can I return it? A: This vintage piece is in Very Good condition with minor surface scratches consistent with gentle wear. It is delivered with a box and dust bag as listed. Returns are accepted in line with our policy—please see our Returns page for eligibility and timeframes, and ensure the item is returned in the same condition received.
