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 these Gucci earrings made from and where were they crafted? A: They are a fashion jewellery style in gold‑toned brass with crystal (rhinestone) embellishment, crafted in Italy. This combination gives a luxe look with a vintage‑inspired aged gold finish.
Q: Are they for pierced ears and what type of closure do they use? A: Yes. They are for pierced ears and secure with a post and butterfly back fastening. Please note one butterfly back is missing on this pair; a jeweller can supply a like‑for‑like replacement to fit the post securely.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under the product information on this page. For this pair, a box and dust bag are included. If an item such as a spare back or care card is not listed there, it is not included.
Q: What are the measurements and how do they sit on the ear? A: Approx. height 3 cm and width 1 cm. They are a drop style with the GG motif and a suspended crystal that sits just below the earlobe. If you are sensitive to weight, consider using larger silicone comfort backs to help distribute pressure.
Q: Are they solid gold? A: No. They are gold‑toned brass (plated/finished to achieve the colour). With normal wear, plated finishes can show light surface wear over time, which can be minimised with careful use and storage.
Q: How should I clean and care for the crystals and metal finish? A: Avoid soaking, ultrasonic machines and harsh chemicals. After wearing, gently wipe with a soft, dry cloth. For any build‑up, lightly dampen a cotton bud with mild soapy water and spot‑clean metal areas only, keeping moisture away from the stone settings. Let dry fully and store in the dust bag/box, away from humidity, perfume, hairspray and lotions. Put on last, take off first.
Q: Will they tarnish or lose colour? A: Brass can dull or oxidise and plated finishes can wear with friction. To keep them looking their best, avoid water exposure, remove before exercise, and store individually in a cool, dry place. Occasional gentle polishing with a soft cloth will help maintain shine.
Q: Are they suitable for sensitive ears or nickel allergies? A: Gucci fashion jewellery is typically made from brass with a gold‑tone finish and may not be strictly nickel‑free. If you have a known nickel sensitivity, consider using hypoallergenic barrier products or titanium/surgical‑steel clutch backs, and discontinue wear if irritation occurs. For guaranteed nickel‑free options, choose fine metals like solid gold, platinum, titanium or surgical steel.
Q: Can missing backs or loose/missing stones be replaced? A: Yes. A reputable jeweller can match a secure butterfly back to the post gauge and can re‑set or replace crystals if ever needed. Replating the gold‑tone finish is also possible, though it may slightly alter the original patina.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this item? A: Every piece is carefully vetted by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, construction, hallmarks and overall workmanship. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and are happy to provide further product information on request.
