Perfect for wedding guest outfits, black-tie dinners or gallery openings, this vintage Loewe Anagram brooch in gold-toned metal lends instant polish to lapels, knits and evening dresses, bringing a signature finishing touch to a tailored coat or silk scarf.
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 this brooch made of? A: It is crafted from gold‑toned metal. Loewe’s Anagram brooches are typically made from brass with a plated finish, though exact alloys and finishes can vary on vintage pieces.
Q: What are the measurements and how does it sit when worn? A: Approx. 5 × 5 × 0.2 cm. It lies fairly flat with a balanced presence that works well on lapels, coats and heavier knits without feeling oversized.
Q: How does the fastening work and where should I place it? A: It has a traditional pin fastening at the back. Open the clasp, guide the pin through the fabric, close securely, and support the area with one hand as you fasten. For best results, place it on stable zones like lapels, jacket shoulders, waistlines or the knot area of a scarf.
Q: Will the pin damage delicate fabrics? A: Any pin can leave small holes, especially on fine silk or very open knits. To minimise marks, choose thicker weaves, go through seams or reinforced edges, or use a magnetic brooch converter so you don’t pierce the fabric at all.
Q: Can I wear it on bags, hats or scarves? A: Yes. It looks striking on coat lapels, berets and structured hats, or on bag straps/flaps. Avoid piercing very soft or thin leather; instead, pin through a seam or use a magnetic converter for a no‑hole option. On scarves, place it near a knot or fold for support.
Q: How should I care for the gold‑tone finish? A: Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth after wear. Avoid contact with water, oils, perfumes and cosmetics, and keep it away from prolonged heat or direct sunlight. Store it individually in a soft pouch or its dust bag to prevent scratching and tangling with other jewellery.
Q: Will the finish tarnish over time? A: Plated brass can naturally dull or tone with wear and exposure. Regular gentle wiping and careful storage slow this process. Avoid abrasive cleaners or polishing compounds, which can wear through plating.
Q: Is the Anagram motif and branding visible? A: The brooch showcases Loewe’s signature interlocking Anagram motif. Many Anagram brooches also feature discreet LOEWE engraving on the reverse; placement and exact markings may vary by production and era.
Q: Is a brooch like this unisex? A: Absolutely. Brooches are a timeless, gender‑neutral accessory that can be styled on tailoring, coats, knitwear and accessories for any wardrobe.
Q: What is included and how do you authenticate it? A: This piece comes with a dust bag. At A Retro Tale, every item is authenticated by in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, finish and branding details; we stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell.
