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: Is this Louis Vuitton LV Sparks Bangle authentic? A: Yes. Every item at A Retro Tale is thoroughly vetted by our in‑house experts and sold with our authenticity commitment. Buy with confidence.
Q: What materials is the LV Sparks bangle made from? Is it solid gold? A: Louis Vuitton fashion jewellery typically uses plated brass (gold‑tone or silver‑tone) and may feature enamel or resin details. It is not solid gold unless explicitly stated. Exact composition can vary by season—please review the photos and contact us if you’d like us to confirm specifics for this piece.
Q: What size is it and how do I know if it will fit? A: Please refer to the “Perimeter Bracelets” and “Width Bracelet” measurements on this page and the close‑up images. For a rigid bangle, compare the listed inner perimeter/diameter with your wrist size; if you need the precise wearable range, message us and we’ll measure it for you.
Q: How does the LV Sparks bangle fasten? A: LV bangles commonly use a hinged closure or slip‑on design. Check the detailed photos to see the exact fastening for this item, or contact us for confirmation.
Q: Can I wear it daily and is it water‑resistant? A: We recommend removing fashion jewellery before hand‑washing, showering, swimming or exercising. Moisture, perfumes and lotions can dull plating and affect enamel/resin elements over time.
Q: How should I clean and care for it? A: Keep it dry, avoid contact with cosmetics, and store separately in a soft pouch to prevent scratches. After wear, gently wipe with a soft, dry microfibre cloth. Do not use chemical dips, ultrasonic cleaners or abrasive polishes.
Q: Will the finish tarnish or fade? A: Plated finishes may show light wear with regular use, especially at high‑contact points. Proper care—keeping it dry, minimising friction and storing carefully—helps preserve the colour and shine.
Q: Is it nickel‑free and suitable for sensitive skin? A: Vintage and fashion jewellery may contain nickel. If you have sensitivities, consider using a clear barrier product on contact points or wearing the piece over clothing. Discontinue use if irritation occurs.
Q: Can the bangle be resized or adjusted? A: Rigid bangles generally cannot be resized. Some hinged styles have minor adjustability, but structural alterations are not recommended and may affect originality and resale value. We don’t offer in‑house modification services but can recommend specialists if needed.
Q: What markings or accessories are included? A: Louis Vuitton jewellery often features engraved hallmarks (e.g., LV/Louis Vuitton, size, country of origin). LV typically does not issue separate authenticity cards for fashion jewellery. Only accessories specifically shown or listed (e.g., box/dust pouch) are included.
Q: What condition should I expect and can I return it? A: Light pre‑owned wear—such as micro‑scratches or minor plating rub—may be present unless stated otherwise. Please review the condition notes and high‑resolution photos. Returns are accepted; see our Returns page for eligibility and timeframes.
