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 Loewe Anagram brooch made of and how big is it? A: It is crafted in gold‑tone brass with a secure pin fastening and engraved Loewe branding. This vintage piece measures approximately 5 × 5 × 1 cm, making it a statement size ideal for lapels and coats.
Q: How should I wear and position a brooch on a blazer or coat? A: A classic placement is high on the left lapel, slightly above the notch and angled towards the shoulder. You can also centre it on the chest or cluster with smaller pins for a modern look. Heavier brooches sit best on structured fabrics such as wool, denim or outerwear.
Q: Can I wear it on knitwear, scarves, hats or bags? A: Yes. On knitwear, choose a tighter knit to support the weight. For scarves, pin through the knot or double the fabric for stability. On hats or berets, place it above the temple. For bags, attach through a strap or a reinforced area rather than soft panels to avoid sagging.
Q: Will the pin damage my clothes? How can I protect delicate fabrics? A: Brooches can mark very delicate materials like silk, chiffon or fine cashmere. To minimise risk, pin through a seam or lining, use thicker fabrics, or add a small felt washer inside the garment. For fragile pieces, consider a magnetic brooch converter to avoid piercing the fabric altogether.
Q: How do I care for gold‑tone brass jewellery so it keeps its shine? A: Wipe the brooch after each wear with a soft, dry cloth and keep it away from water, lotions, perfume and prolonged humidity. Store it separately in a pouch. If light tarnish appears, clean gently with lukewarm water and a drop of mild soap, then dry thoroughly. Avoid abrasive polishes or ultrasonic cleaners, which can wear the gold‑tone finish.
Q: Is the Anagram brooch unisex and is the look on‑trend? A: Absolutely. Brooches are back on runways and in street style and are worn by all genders. A 5 cm Anagram works as a bold accent on tailoring, outerwear, knitwear and even caps or bags; men traditionally pin brooches on the left lapel, but placement is now largely personal preference.
Q: Does this brooch have Loewe hallmarks or stamps? A: Loewe Anagram brooches typically feature engraved LOEWE branding on the reverse and use a pin fastening with a safety clasp. As a vintage piece, minor variations can occur between different production runs.
Q: What accessories are included with this item? A: This listing comes without accessories. Everything included is stated under the Accessories section; if a Loewe box, dust pouch or certificate is not listed there, it is not included.
Q: How is authenticity guaranteed for this piece? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully authenticated by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, construction and branding. We stand behind the authenticity of all items and can arrange an optional digital authenticity certificate on request.
