Hermès1993 Pegasus Cadena Lock Charm

Q: What is the Hermès 1993 Pegasus Cadena Lock Charm?
A: It is a vintage Hermès padlock-style charm featuring Pegasus, the mythical winged horse. The Pegasus design is associated with the house’s 1993 cadena collection.

Q: How big is this charm?
A: This piece measures 3 cm in height and 3.5 cm in width, making it a compact decorative accessory.

Q: How can I style the Pegasus Cadena charm?
A: It can be styled on a handbag, attached to a suitable key ring or worn as a pendant on a compatible chain. Check that the attachment fits securely before use. No chain or key ring is included.

Q: Can I use it on a bag other than Hermès?
A: It may suit other handbags with a compatible attachment point. Check the size of the loop or hardware first, and position the charm so that it does not rub repeatedly against delicate leather.

Q: How does the Pegasus Cadena open, and does it need a key?
A: This model typically uses a spring closure rather than a key: the movable side of the lock slides down to open. Do not force the mechanism; if you would like confirmation of this vintage piece’s operation, please contact us before purchasing.

Q: Is this charm intended as a security padlock?
A: It is best purchased as a decorative accessory rather than a security device. The product information does not specify a security rating or guarantee its suitability for securing valuables.

Q: Is this charm made from solid silver?
A: The product information specifies silver as the colour but does not confirm the metal composition or plating. It should therefore not be assumed to be solid silver.

Q: What condition is this piece in, and what is included?
A: This charm is in very good pre-owned condition with light traces of use. The hardware remains shiny with light scratches. No accessories are included, so an original box, pouch, chain or key ring is not supplied. Please review the photographs alongside the product information.

Q: How should I care for this vintage charm?
A: Gently remove dust and fingerprints with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals, moisture, intense heat and contact with other metal accessories. Store it separately in a soft pouch that you supply. As the metal composition is not specified, seek specialist advice before using metal polish or cleaning solutions.
