Q: Are light scratches or oxidation normal on vintage jewellery?
A: Yes. Light surface scratches are normal on pre-owned metal jewellery, and some finishes may dull over time. Start with a soft polishing cloth and avoid harsh abrasives, especially on plated or coated surfaces.

Q: How is authenticity handled for a pre-owned Hermès necklace?
A: Hermès states it only guarantees authenticity for items purchased through its official channels, which is why expert authentication is important in the secondary market. This necklace is sold as an authenticated pre-owned piece by A Retro Tale.
