Subtle yet iconic, they transition seamlessly from a crisp blazer by day to a sleek evening dress for dinners, weddings or weekend brunch.
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 stud earrings made from? A: They are fashion jewellery crafted in gold‑tone metal, commonly brass with a gold‑colour finish, featuring the iconic V motif for pierced ears with a post-and-butterfly back.
Q: Are these earrings solid gold or gold‑plated fine jewellery? A: No. Essential V studs are Louis Vuitton fashion jewellery in gold‑tone metal rather than solid gold fine jewellery. This gives the signature look at a lighter weight and more accessible price point.
Q: Are they suitable for sensitive ears or nickel‑free? A: Louis Vuitton does not market these as hypoallergenic. Many LV fashion jewellery pieces are brass with a gold‑colour finish; individual sensitivities vary. If your ears are sensitive, consider wearing for shorter periods, using protective earring sleeves, or opting for fine jewellery metals.
Q: What size are they and how do they feel on the ear? A: The V motif is small and lightweight, measuring approximately 0.9 × 0.9 cm (see Measurements on this page). They are comfortable everyday studs for most wearers.
Q: Can I shower, swim, or work out in them? A: It’s best to remove fashion jewellery before water, sweat, perfume, hairspray, or lotions. Moisture and chemicals can dull the finish over time. After wear, wipe gently with a soft dry cloth and store in a pouch or jewellery box.
Q: Do these earrings have date codes or serial numbers? A: Unlike Louis Vuitton bags and small leather goods that historically use date codes, jewellery pieces like these typically carry crisp logo and made‑in engravings rather than date codes. Authenticity is judged by construction, materials, and correct stamps.
Q: Where are these made? A: This pair is marked Made in Italy, consistent with many Louis Vuitton jewellery pieces.
Q: What closure do they use and are the backs replaceable? A: They use a traditional post with butterfly backs for a secure fit. If ever needed, standard replacement butterfly backs can be used; ensure a snug fit and choose a size that matches the original.
Q: What accessories are included with this listing? A: This item is sold without accessories. Everything included is listed in the Accessories section and shown in the photos—if a box or dust pouch isn’t listed, it is not included.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate these earrings? A: Every item is vetted by our in‑house experts through multi‑point checks of materials, weight and finish, engraving quality, construction, and stylistic hallmarks of the model. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and are happy to provide extra photos or details on request.
