Perfect for dinners, gallery openings or weekend brunch, these vintage Bottega Veneta silver Intrecciato hoop earrings add understated polish. Effortless from office to evening, they elevate tailored suiting, cocktail dresses and off-duty denim with refined ease.
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 size are these hoops?
A: They are approximately 4 cm across with a hoop thickness of around 0.6 cm, offering a classic mid‑size look. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact details and see the photos for scale.
Q: What does the Intrecciato detail mean on these earrings?
A: Intrecciato is Bottega Veneta’s signature woven motif. On this pair the effect is rendered as a textured pattern on silver, giving subtle dimension and a refined, quietly recognisable house signature.
Q: What metal are they made from?
A: The pair is described as silver. Bottega Veneta typically crafts its silver earrings in 925 sterling silver, but as this is a vintage item the exact alloy and hallmarks can vary by production run. Please check the product information and close‑up photos for any stamps (such as 925 or Made in Italy) and contact us if you’d like us to verify specifics.
Q: Are they suitable for sensitive ears?
A: Many people with sensitive ears tolerate high‑quality sterling silver well, and EU/UK regulations limit nickel release from jewellery. However, individual sensitivities differ. If you know you react to certain alloys, consider wearing short periods at first and discontinue use if irritation occurs; alternatives like titanium or solid gold may be better for very sensitive skin.
Q: How secure is the hinged post closure?
A: The hinged post is designed for easy on‑off and secure daily wear when properly aligned; you should feel or hear a gentle click when it closes. As with all hinged hoops, the mechanism can loosen over years of use—have a jeweller realign or tighten if it ever feels less secure, and store the hoops closed to help maintain shape.
Q: Can I wear them in the shower or while swimming?
A: We recommend removing silver jewellery before showering, swimming, or exercising. Chlorine, salt water, humidity and sweat can accelerate tarnish and may dull the finish over time.
Q: How should I clean and store these silver earrings?
A: Wipe with a soft, dry cloth after each wear. For a deeper clean, wash briefly with mild soap and water, then dry thoroughly. Avoid harsh chemicals and prolonged heat or direct sunlight. Store individually in a pouch or box with an anti‑tarnish strip to help keep the shine.
Q: Are they comfortable for all‑day wear?
A: At about 4 cm, these are medium‑sized hoops in silver, which most find comfortable for day‑to‑evening wear. Comfort depends on your lobe and piercing; if you prefer extra support, lightweight stabiliser backs or discs can help distribute weight.
Q: Can I sleep in them?
A: It’s best to remove hoops before sleeping to avoid snagging on hair or bedding and to prevent the hinge from bending over time. If you prefer to keep earrings in overnight, choose dedicated sleeper studs or small huggies instead.
Q: What is included and how are they authenticated?
A: Everything included with this item is listed under the product information section on this page. A Retro Tale authenticates every piece through multi‑point checks of materials, construction, stamps and overall craftsmanship, so you can buy with confidence.
Q: What is the condition of this pair?
A: Vintage, in Very Good condition with light traces of use. The silver is shiny with light surface scratches, consistent with careful wear. Please review the photos for the most accurate view of condition.
