Q: What wrist size does the 16.5 cm length suit? A: As a guide, many jewellers suggest adding around 1–2 cm to your wrist measurement for a comfortable bracelet fit. If your wrist measures roughly 14.5–15.5 cm, a 16.5 cm bracelet typically offers a close fit depending on personal preference and bracelet style. This mesh design is structured and does not stretch; please compare with your own measurement for best results.
Q: Is the bracelet adjustable? A: It features a clasp closure and is not designed for significant size adjustment. Minor adjustments may be possible only if a jeweller can add a discreet extender compatible with the clasp style; this is not included and may not be suitable for every design.
Q: How should I clean a vintage rhinestone bracelet? A: Do not soak or submerge. Avoid ultrasonic cleaners and harsh chemicals. Instead, gently wipe with a soft, dry cloth. If needed, use a barely damp cloth with a drop of mild soap, keeping moisture away from the stone settings, then dry immediately. Regular gentle wiping helps maintain sparkle.
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: Can I wear it in the shower or when washing hands? A: We recommend removing it before exposure to water, steam, perfumes, lotions, or household cleaners. Moisture and chemicals can cloud foil‑back rhinestones and may accelerate wear to gold‑tone plating.
Q: How should I clean a vintage rhinestone bracelet? A: Do not soak or submerge. Avoid ultrasonic cleaners and harsh chemicals. Instead, gently wipe with a soft, dry cloth. If needed, use a barely damp cloth with a drop of mild soap, keeping moisture away from the stone settings, then dry immediately. Regular gentle wiping helps maintain sparkle.
Q: Will the gold‑tone finish fade over time? A: Gold‑tone plating can show natural wear with friction and contact with cosmetics, sweat, or chemicals. To prolong the finish, put the bracelet on last (after fragrance and lotion), remove before exercise or water, and store it separately in a soft pouch away from humidity and direct sunlight.
Q: Are the stones glass rhinestones, and what if one becomes loose? A: Rhinestones are glass/crystal stones set into the metal. We inspect settings to ensure stones are secure at the time of listing. If a stone loosens or is lost with wear, a jeweller experienced in costume jewellery can usually re‑set or colour‑match a replacement; feel free to contact us for guidance.
Q: How do you authenticate Givenchy jewellery? A: Each piece is vetted by our specialists using multi‑point checks of construction, plating quality, and maker’s marks. Vintage Givenchy signatures commonly include variations of “Givenchy”, “GIVENCHY Paris”, or “Givenchy Paris New York”; some late‑1970s to early‑1980s pieces were date‑stamped on oval plaques. We stand behind the authenticity of every item we sell.
Q: Is this bracelet nickel‑free or hypoallergenic? A: As with many vintage costume pieces, the exact alloy is not known and may contain nickel. If you have sensitivities, we suggest avoiding prolonged skin contact and considering a barrier (e.g., wearing over a thin sleeve) or choosing confirmed nickel‑free jewellery.
Q: What condition should I expect? A: This piece is in very good vintage condition with light traces of use and shiny hardware with light surface scratches, consistent with careful wear. Please review the photos and product information for close‑ups of the finish and stones.
Q: What is included with my purchase? A: Everything included is listed under the product information on this page. If an item such as a branded box or care booklet is not listed there, it is not included.
