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 Chanel Coco Mark Clip-on Earrings authentic? A: Yes. Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously vetted by our in‑house experts and sold with our authenticity commitment. Shop with confidence.
Q: What are they made of? Are they solid gold? A: Chanel costume jewellery typically uses gold‑tone plated base metal (often brass). This pair features gold‑tone hardware and is not solid gold unless explicitly stated. Please review the close‑up photos and contact us if you’d like confirmation of the exact composition.
Q: Are they clip‑on and how do they fasten? Will they suit non‑pierced ears? A: Yes—this style is clip‑on, using a hinged clasp that grips the earlobe. Many vintage Chanel clips include a small comfort pad. Please check the images for the exact fitting, and message us if you’d like us to confirm details or provide wear tips.
Q: What size and weight are they? Will they feel heavy? A: The measurements are approximately 1.5 cm x 1.5 cm. Weight varies by model; if you’d like the gram weight for comfort reference, we’ll measure it for you. At this size, most wearers find them comfortable for regular occasions; adding fresh comfort pads can improve long‑wear ease.
Q: What does “Coco Mark” mean and what hallmarks should I expect? A: “Coco Mark” refers to Chanel’s interlocking CC logo. Most vintage Chanel earrings include an oval or round plaque stamped CHANEL, often with “Made in France/Italy” and a season code. Placement can be on the reverse of the earring or clip. Stamps vary by era and some early pieces may lack plaques. Our listing photos show any markings present on this pair.
Q: Are they suitable for sensitive ears? Are they nickel‑free? A: Vintage and fashion jewellery may contain nickel. If you have sensitivities, consider hypoallergenic barrier discs or applying a clear barrier product on contact points, and wear for shorter periods. Discontinue use if irritation occurs and contact us for guidance.
Q: How should I care for gold‑tone plated Chanel earrings? A: Keep them dry and away from perfume, hairspray, lotions and hand sanitiser. After wear, gently wipe with a soft, dry microfibre cloth and store individually to avoid scratches. Do not soak, use ultrasonic cleaners or chemical dips. A non‑abrasive jewellery cloth may be used lightly on metal areas only.
Q: Will the plating tarnish or fade with wear? A: Plated finishes can show light surface wear over time, particularly at high‑contact points like the clip mechanism. Proper care—minimising moisture and cosmetics, wiping after wear and storing separately—helps preserve colour and lustre. This pair is in Very Good condition with light oxidation and typical micro‑scratches disclosed in the photos.
Q: Can the clip tension be adjusted, can they be repaired or converted to pierced posts? A: A competent jeweller can often adjust clip tension, replace comfort pads and service the hinge; gentle replating may be possible but can affect originality and resale value. Converting clip‑ons to posts is sometimes feasible but will alter the design and may reduce collectability—please weigh this carefully. We don’t perform in‑house modifications but can recommend reputable specialists on request. Chanel’s after‑sales service for costume jewellery is at their discretion and varies by boutique.
Q: What is included and can I return earrings? A: Only accessories specifically shown or listed are included; this pair is delivered with no accessories. Earrings are eligible for return under our standard policy provided they are unworn and any hygiene seal (if applied) remains intact. Please see our Returns page for full details and timeframes.
