Q: Are these Louis Vuitton LV Iconic Rhinestone Earrings authentic?
A: Yes. Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously vetted by our in‑house experts and sold with our authenticity commitment. Shop with confidence.

Q: What are they made from? Are they solid silver and real diamonds?
A: These earrings are costume jewellery pieces crafted from silver‑tone metal and set with sparkling rhinestones (crystals). They are not made of solid sterling silver or real diamonds. Please review the close‑up photos and features, and contact us if you’d like us to confirm any specific composition details.

Q: What are the measurements and how will they fit?
A: They are listed with dimensions of approximately 2 cm (height) x 2 cm (width). As stud earrings featuring the LV initials, they offer a recognisable statement look. If you would like a photo on a model to gauge the scale on the ear, please message us and we’ll provide it.

Q: How do they fasten? Are they secure?
A: They feature a post back closure mechanism (studs) designated for pierced ears. This style is secure for daily wear, though we recommend ensuring the backs are fitted tightly before use to prevent loss.

Q: What hallmarks or stamps should I find on these earrings?
A: Authentic Louis Vuitton costume jewellery typically bears an engraved hallmark with the LV signature, “Made in Italy” (or France), and a date code. These are often located on the back or edge of the earring. Our listing photos demonstrate any stamps present on this pair.

Q: Are they suitable for sensitive ears?
A: Fashion jewellery alloys and platings may contain nickel. If you have metal sensitivities, we recommend monitoring comfort or using a clear barrier product on the posts. Discontinue wear if irritation occurs and contact us for guidance.

Q: How should I care for the rhinestones and silver‑tone finish?
A: Keep them dry and away from perfume, lotions, hairspray, and hand sanitiser, as chemicals can dull the plating and damage the rhinestone foil backing. After wear, wipe gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth. Store them separately in a pouch or box to prevent scratches and protect the stone settings.

Q: What adjustments or repairs are possible?
A: We recommend consulting a specialist jeweller for any repairs, such as re‑gluing a loose stone or tightening a post. Louis Vuitton typically does not service vintage costume jewellery. We do not offer in‑house repairs, so please treat the item with care to maintain its condition.

Q: What condition should I expect, what is included, and can I return them?
A: This pair is in Very Good Condition with light signs of wear possible unless noted otherwise. This listing includes no accessories (such as a box or dust bag). Returns are accepted under our standard policy—please see our Returns page for eligibility, timeframes and conditions, and ensure the item is returned in the same condition received.
