Ideal for cocktail hours, weddings, or polished office-to-dinner moments, these vintage Louis Vuitton Garden Louise hoops in gold-tone with the signature LV motif add refined shine to tailored looks and sleek dresses.
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 is the design of the Garden Louise Hoop Earrings? A: Part of Louis Vuitton’s Louise line, these hoops feature the LV Circle motif framed by a slim, polished gold-tone hoop. This Garden edition highlights the emblem in a refined, decorative circle for a sleek, logo-forward look.
Q: What size are these hoops? A: Please refer to the Measurements on this page for the exact dimensions. This pair is a small, easy-to-wear size suitable for everyday styling; Louise hoops are typically offered in two widths, with the larger GM version being noticeably bigger and bolder.
Q: What are they made from? A: Louis Vuitton Louise earrings are fashion jewellery crafted from metal (often brass) with a gold-colour finish. The posts and backs are metal too, designed for pierced ears with a classic push-back closure.
Q: Are they hypoallergenic? A: As fashion jewellery with base metals and plating, nickel content is not guaranteed. If you have sensitive ears or a known nickel allergy, consider shorter wear times, using support/disc backs or barrier sleeves, or opting for fine-metal posts such as solid gold, sterling silver, titanium, or surgical steel.
Q: Will the gold-tone finish tarnish or fade over time? A: With regular wear, plated finishes can lose brightness or show surface wear, especially with exposure to moisture, perfume, hair products, sweat, and friction. Proper care greatly slows this process.
Q: How should I clean and care for them? A: After each wear, wipe gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth. Avoid chemical jewellery dips, ultrasonic cleaners, or abrasive polishing. Keep them dry; remove before showering, swimming, exercising, or applying lotions and fragrances. Store individually in a pouch or box, away from humidity.
Q: Are they heavy on the ear? A: The smaller size is generally comfortable for day-to-night wear. The larger GM version can feel weighty for prolonged wear on some lobes; support discs or larger friction backs can help distribute weight if needed.
Q: What type of closure do they use and will standard backs fit? A: They use a straight post with push-back (friction) backs. Most standard butterfly backs fit; if you prefer a firmer hold, consider wider disc backs for added support.
Q: What accessories are included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under Accessories on this page. If a box, pouch, or extra backs are not listed there, they are not included with this piece—please contact us if you would like us to confirm what’s inside the parcel.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate these earrings? A: Every piece is inspected by our in-house experts using multi-point checks across materials, construction, finish, stamps/engravings, and period-correct details. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and are happy to provide additional photos or details on request.
