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 solid gold or gold‑plated? A: These are Dior fashion jewellery earrings in gold‑tone metal (gold‑finish), not solid gold. Dior’s contemporary fashion earrings are typically crafted in metal with a gold‑finish rather than precious solid gold.
Q: Are they for pierced ears or clip‑ons? A: They feature a push‑back closure for pierced ears.
Q: What are the measurements and how do they sit on the ear? A: Approximate size is 2 cm in height, 0.5 cm in width and 0.4 cm in depth. The heart stud sits on the lobe with the padlock, key and D charms gently dangling below.
Q: Do they come with a Dior box or spare earring backs? A: Everything included with this item is listed in the Product information on this page. If a Dior box or extra backs are not listed there, they are not included.
Q: Can I replace the butterfly backs if needed? A: Yes. Standard butterfly backs are widely available and a jeweller can help you choose replacements that fit the posts securely. Always test the fit before wear.
Q: Are they nickel‑free and suitable for sensitive ears? A: As with most vintage fashion jewellery, the exact alloy composition can vary and may include base metals. If you are sensitive to nickel or other metals, consider using barrier discs or hypoallergenic backs and limit wear time. If irritation occurs, discontinue wear and seek advice from a healthcare professional.
Q: Can I wear them in the shower, swimming or at the gym? A: We do not recommend it. Water, sweat, perfumes and lotions can dull or wear the gold‑finish over time. Remove the earrings before bathing, swimming, exercising or applying beauty products.
Q: How should I clean and care for these earrings? A: Wipe after wear with a soft, dry, non‑abrasive cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals, metal polishes and abrasive cloths. Do not use ultrasonic cleaners on plated or gold‑finish pieces. Store separately in a soft pouch in a cool, dry place.
Q: Are the dangling charms removable? A: No, the heart padlock, key and D charms are part of the design and are not intended to be detached.
Q: What should I know about the condition noted? A: This pair is in Very Good condition with discolouration on the earring backs and light surface scratches consistent with gentle wear. Please review photos for details.
