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 wrist size will a 17.5 cm bracelet fit? A: As a guide, 17.5 cm generally suits a medium women’s wrist, giving a comfortable fit on a wrist around 16.5 cm when you add 0.5–1 cm for ease. To check at home, measure your wrist snugly with a soft tape just below the wrist bone, then add your preferred allowance for a snug or relaxed fit.
Q: What is a mariner link chain? A: Also called an anchor chain, the mariner link features oval links each divided by a central bar. This construction helps the chain lie flat on the wrist and gives it a distinctive, nautical look that resists twisting compared with simple cable chains.
Q: How does the box clasp work and is it secure? A: A box clasp uses a springy tongue that slides into a small box and “clicks” into place, releasing only when you press the tab. It is a trusted closure for bracelets and is designed for everyday reliability; as with any clasp, check it closes with a positive click before wear.
Q: Is this bracelet solid gold or gold‑plated? A: This piece is crafted in gold‑tone metal (gold‑plated fashion jewellery), not solid gold. Vintage Givenchy bracelets were commonly made with quality gold plating over a base metal, with brand signatures rather than precious‑metal fineness stamps. Solid‑gold pieces are usually marked with purity hallmarks such as 750 or 585.
Q: How should I clean and care for a gold‑plated bracelet? A: Wipe after wear with a soft, dry cloth. If needed, clean briefly in lukewarm water with a drop of mild soap, then rinse and dry thoroughly. Avoid abrasives, jewellery dips, ultrasonic cleaners, and chemicals like perfume, sunscreen, chlorine, or bleach, which can strip plating. Store separately to prevent scratches.
Q: Can the length be adjusted if needed? A: Many chain bracelets can be shortened or lengthened by a professional jeweller by removing or adding links. Any soldering or polishing may affect the plating and could require local replating, so discuss options with your jeweller first. We cannot guarantee extra links are available; please refer to the product information on this page.
Q: What signatures or hallmarks should I expect on vintage Givenchy jewellery? A: Common signatures include “Givenchy”, “GIVENCHY Paris”, or “Givenchy Paris New York”, often on an oval plaque or on the clasp. Some 1970s pieces are date‑stamped, and later pieces may feature a 4G logo tag. Placement varies by design.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under the product information section on this page. If a branded box, dust bag, or similar is not listed there, it is not included.
Q: What condition should I expect on this vintage piece? A: It is graded Very Good, with shiny metal and light surface scratches consistent with careful wear. Please review all photos to assess the finish and patina before purchase.
Q: How do you authenticate this bracelet? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is vetted by specialists using multi‑point checks of materials, construction, signatures and stamps, and era‑appropriate details. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can share additional photos or details on request.
