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: Are these Bottega Veneta earrings for pierced ears or clip‑on? A: They are designed for pierced ears and secure with a post‑back fastening.
Q: What are they made of? A: This pair features a black‑tone plated metal finish with pavé crystals and off‑white enamel spike detailing. Like many Bottega Veneta fashion‑jewellery styles, they are crafted in Italy and combine plated metal with decorative enamel elements.
Q: How big are the hoops on the ear? A: The approximate measurements are 2 × 1.5 × 2 cm (H × W × D). They read as a compact, sculptural hoop that works from day to evening.
Q: Are they heavy to wear? A: The 2 cm profile offers a noticeable look without being oversized. Comfort varies by wearer; if you have sensitive lobes, consider using larger support backs and limiting extended wear.
Q: How should I care for the enamel and crystal details? A: Keep them away from knocks, drops and hard surfaces (enamel can chip). Avoid contact with perfume, hairspray, lotions and household chemicals. Remove before showering, swimming, exercising or sleeping. After wearing, gently wipe with a soft, dry cloth and store separately in the box or a soft pouch. Do not use ultrasonic cleaners or abrasive cloths on enamel or crystals.
Q: Will the black‑tone plating wear over time? A: All plated finishes can show wear with friction, moisture and chemicals. To prolong the finish, put jewellery on last (after skincare and fragrance), take it off first, and store pieces separately to minimise rubbing.
Q: Are these hypoallergenic or nickel‑free? A: We cannot guarantee the exact alloy content of plated fashion‑jewellery, and terms like “hypoallergenic” and “nickel‑free” are not strictly regulated. If you have known metal sensitivities, consider limiting wear time or opting for sterling‑silver alternatives; please contact us if you need guidance.
Q: What does “Very Good” condition mean here? A: It indicates light traces of use consistent with gentle wear, with no major flaws affecting appearance or function. Please review the photos for close‑ups of any minor signs of wear.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This pair comes with a box, as listed under Accessories.
