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 Christian Dior earrings solid gold? A: No. This pair is crafted in gold‑toned metal. Vintage Dior fashion jewellery is typically made from high‑quality base metal (often brass) with a gold‑coloured finish or plating rather than solid gold. If you have metal sensitivities, consider using clip cushions as a barrier and avoid prolonged wear.
Q: Do they have Dior signatures or hallmarks? A: Most authentic vintage Dior clip‑ons carry a maker’s plaque on the reverse, often reading Chr. Dior or Christian Dior, sometimes with a copyright symbol and date or a country mark such as Germany/West Germany or France. Our team checks these details as part of authentication; please refer to the photos or contact us if you’d like close‑ups.
Q: How big are they and how do they sit on the ear? A: Approx. 2 × 1.5 × 0.3 cm. The compact twisted‑hoop silhouette sits neatly on the lobe and the hinged clip secures the earring without a pierced post. Fit can vary with ear shape; adding small silicone pads can improve comfort and grip.
Q: Are clip‑on earrings comfortable for all‑day wear? A: Comfort depends on clip tension, weight and your ear sensitivity. Tips for comfort include using silicone or foam pads, taking short breaks during very long wear, and ensuring the clip isn’t overly tight. A jeweller can fine‑tune hinge tension if needed; avoid bending clips yourself as this can weaken the mechanism.
Q: Can these be converted for pierced ears? A: Many clip‑ons can be professionally converted by a bench jeweller, but conversion is permanent and may affect collectability and resale value. If you plan to convert, seek advice from a specialist jeweller to preserve the integrity of the piece.
Q: How should I clean and care for gold‑tone vintage earrings? A: Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth after each wear. Keep them away from water, perfume, hairspray and lotions, and never use ultrasonic cleaners or harsh chemicals. For a light clean, use a barely damp cloth and dry immediately. Store separately in a soft pouch to prevent friction that can wear the finish.
Q: Will gold‑tone or gold‑plated finishes tarnish or wear? A: Gold‑tone and gold‑plated surfaces can show wear over time, especially with moisture, friction and cosmetics. Proper care and dry storage significantly slow this process. Avoid polishing abrasives, which can remove plating.
Q: What is included with this item? A: The listing states no accessories are included. If a Dior box, pouch or certificate isn’t mentioned under Accessories, it is not part of the sale. Please contact us if you need a gift pouch from A Retro Tale.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate Dior jewellery? A: Every piece undergoes multi‑point checks by our in‑house experts, including materials and finish, construction, clip hardware, signatures and plaques, and period‑correct details. We stand behind the authenticity of all items and are happy to share additional photos or information on request.
Q: Any tips for sensitive skin with vintage fashion jewellery? A: Keep skin and earrings clean and dry, add hypoallergenic clip pads or clear barrier stickers on contact points, and limit wear time if you notice irritation. If you have a known nickel allergy, consider using pads consistently or consult a jeweller about protective coatings.
