Delivery & Returns
Q: What size is the Saint Laurent Small YSL Cassandra Brooch? A: This brooch measures approximately 5 cm in height, 1.5 cm in width, and 0.5 cm in depth. It is a compact statement piece that adds a refined logo accent without feeling oversized.
Q: What does the Cassandra design refer to? A: The Cassandra motif refers to Saint Laurent’s iconic interlocking YSL monogram, one of the house’s most recognisable signatures. It gives the brooch a distinctly branded vintage look while remaining elegant and easy to style.
Q: How does this brooch fasten? A: It features a classic pin closure. This style is easy to secure on jackets, coats, scarves, and other structured fabrics.
Q: Where is the best place to wear a brooch like this? A: The most traditional placement is on the left lapel or upper chest, but it can also be worn on the right side, at the neckline, on a scarf, or on a hat for a more modern look. Because this is a smaller logo brooch, it works well as either a subtle accent or a polished focal point.
Q: Will it damage delicate fabrics? A: Like most pin brooches, it is best suited to structured materials such as blazers, coats, denim, or thicker knitwear. On delicate silk or fine knits, we recommend fastening it through a reinforced area, seam, folded section, or scarf to help avoid visible pin marks or strain on the fabric.
Q: What condition is this brooch in? A: This vintage piece is rated Very Good Condition. The hardware remains shiny, with light scratches consistent with gentle previous use.
Q: Does it come with any original packaging or accompanying items? A: No. According to the product information for this piece, it is sold without any accompanying items.
Q: How should I care for the gold-tone metal? A: To help preserve the finish, avoid direct contact with perfume, water, chlorine, lotions, and other chemicals. Wipe it gently with a soft dry cloth after wear and store it separately in a pouch or jewellery box to reduce scratches.
Q: Is this made of solid gold? A: No, it is described as a gold-tone metal brooch rather than solid gold jewellery. It offers the signature Saint Laurent look in a versatile fashion-jewellery format.
Q: How do you authenticate this brooch? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully reviewed by in-house experts using detailed checks of materials, finish, engravings, branding, and overall construction. We stand behind the authenticity of the pieces we sell.
