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 from? A: It is crafted from brass with a silver-tone finish often described as palladium plated, and features a classic pin fastening at the back.
Q: What are the dimensions and how heavy is it? A: This piece measures approximately 5 × 5 cm with a slim 0.2 cm profile, as listed on this page. Similar Loewe Anagram brooches weigh around 15 g, though weight can vary slightly by finish.
Q: Is the finish real silver? A: No. The brooch is silver-tone plated over brass (not solid sterling silver). The plating provides the colour and shine but should be treated gently to preserve it.
Q: How secure is the fastening? A: It uses a traditional pin and clasp that is secure on most medium-to-heavy fabrics like coats, blazers and denim. For best hold, place the brooch with the hinge at the top so gravity helps it sit flat.
Q: Will a brooch damage delicate fabrics? A: Any pin can mark very delicate materials. To minimise risk, pin through thicker areas such as seams, lapels or knit ribs; add a small piece of felt on the inside as a backing; or use a magnetic brooch converter on fragile silks and fine knits. Avoid forcing pins through tightly woven or very open knits.
Q: Where can I wear it besides a lapel? A: Try it on the chest of a coat or blazer, at the shoulder of a jumper, at the centre of a shirt collar, securing a scarf knot, on a beret or beanie, or on a bag strap. On leather goods, consider pinning through a fabric scarf tied to the handle or a strap loop to avoid making holes.
Q: How should I care for and clean the brooch? A: Wipe after wear with a soft, dry, lint‑free cloth. Keep it away from water, perfumes, lotions and cleaning chemicals. Store it in its box to limit scratches and exposure to air. For plated pieces, avoid abrasive polishes or dips; use only a very gentle jewellery cloth. If deeper cleaning is needed, consult a professional to avoid thinning the plating.
Q: Is this brooch unisex? A: Yes. Brooches are a gender‑inclusive accessory and look equally sharp on all wardrobes—from tailoring and outerwear to knitwear and bags.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This piece comes with its original box. All included accessories are listed in the Accessories section; if something isn’t listed, it is not included.
