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 Vivienne Westwood Miranda Hoop Earrings made from? A: They are fashion jewellery crafted in silver‑tone plated brass and set with clear cubic zirconia crystals, featuring the signature Orb motif. Designed for pierced ears.
Q: What is the size and how do they sit on the ear? A: The approximate measurements are 4 cm in height and 2 cm in width. They read as a medium statement hoop; fit and drop can vary slightly depending on ear anatomy.
Q: How do they fasten and how is the Orb positioned? A: They are worn through pierced ears. The hoop threads through the centre of the Orb to create the interlinked look associated with the Miranda design.
Q: Are the stones real diamonds? A: No. The earrings are embellished with clear cubic zirconia crystals for a bright, diamond‑like sparkle.
Q: Are they suitable for sensitive ears or those with nickel allergies? A: Most Vivienne Westwood fashion jewellery uses a brass base with precious‑tone plating. While jewellery sold in the UK/EU must meet nickel‑release limits, individual sensitivities vary and we cannot guarantee this specific pair is allergen‑free. If you have a known nickel allergy, consider the brand’s sterling‑silver lines or contact us for further guidance.
Q: Will the plating tarnish or the crystals dull over time? A: Plated brass jewellery can wear or tarnish if exposed to water, fragrance, lotions, sweat or humidity. Treat them as a finishing touch and avoid contact with moisture to help keep the finish and stones bright.
Q: How should I clean and store them? A: After wear, wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth. For a deeper clean, use a mild jewellery‑cleaning solution suitable for plated costume jewellery and pat dry. Do not use abrasive cloths or silver dips. Store them separately in a soft pouch or box, in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
Q: Can I wear them in the shower, pool, gym or to sleep? A: We recommend removing them before bathing, swimming, exercising or sleeping to minimise plating wear and reduce the risk of stone loss.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under the product information on this page. For this pair, a box is included.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this piece? A: Each item is carefully vetted by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, construction, finishes and brand markings. We stand behind the authenticity of every piece and can provide further details on request.
