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 are the Louis Vuitton Essential V Hoop Earrings made of? A: They are Louis Vuitton fashion jewellery in gold-tone metal with the signature V motif, rather than solid gold. For vintage Louis Vuitton earrings, the exact base metal can vary by production period, so the product information on this page is the best reference for this specific pair.
Q: What size are they? A: This pair measures approximately 3 cm in height, 1.5 cm in width and 0.5 cm in depth. That gives them a polished statement look without being oversized.
Q: Are they for pierced ears and how do they fasten? A: Yes, these earrings are designed for pierced ears. They feature a hoop-style hinged closure that should sit securely in place when closed gently.
Q: Are they heavy to wear? A: Essential V hoops are generally more substantial than tiny studs, so they may feel slightly weightier than very minimal everyday earrings. Most wearers find this style manageable, but comfort is always personal.
Q: Are they hypoallergenic? A: Louis Vuitton does not market its fashion jewellery as hypoallergenic. If you have very sensitive ears or known metal allergies, plated fashion jewellery may not be ideal for prolonged wear.
Q: Will the gold-tone finish tarnish or fade? A: As with most plated fashion jewellery, the finish can dull or show wear over time, especially if exposed to water, perfume, lotions, sweat or frequent friction. This vintage pair is currently listed in very good condition with shiny hardware and light scratches.
Q: How should I care for them? A: Apply perfume, hairspray and cosmetics before putting them on, then wipe them gently with a soft dry cloth after wear. Store them separately to help prevent scratches, and avoid water, high heat and knocks.
Q: What condition are they in? A: They are listed in very good condition overall. The metal remains shiny, with light surface scratches noted in the hardware condition, which is normal gentle wear for vintage jewellery.
Q: What is included with this pair? A: This item is sold with no additional items. Please refer to the product information on this page for the full included contents.
Q: How can I tell they are authentic? A: A Retro Tale specialises in authenticated luxury vintage pieces and states an authenticity guarantee on its Louis Vuitton listings. If you would like extra reassurance, review the photos, measurements, condition notes and product information provided for this exact pair.
