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 Céline Knot 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 from? Are they solid gold? A: These are vintage Céline costume jewellery earrings in a yellow gold‑tone finish. Céline’s knot styles are typically crafted from brass with a gold‑tone plating rather than solid gold. If you’d like us to confirm any aspect of the composition for this pair, just ask and we’ll check the piece for you.
Q: Are they for pierced ears and how do they fasten? A: Yes—this pair is for pierced ears and features a push‑back (friction) closure. Ensure the butterfly backs fit snugly on the posts; for extra security you can use larger‑disc butterflies or locking backs and periodically check the fit to prevent loss.
Q: What are the measurements and how noticeable will they be when worn? A: Approximate dimensions are 3.9 cm (height) x 2.0 cm (width) x 1.6 cm (depth). This size offers a refined yet visible presence on the ear without being overly bulky. If you’d like the gram weight or a photo on model for scale, let us know and we’ll provide it.
Q: Are they heavy? Will they pull on my earlobes? A: They have a modest, wearable weight for most wearers. If you have sensitive lobes, consider using comfort backs with larger discs to distribute weight and keep the earrings sitting upright.
Q: What hallmarks or stamps should I expect on vintage Céline earrings? A: Vintage Céline jewellery commonly bears the CELINE signature—often “CELINE”, “CELINE PARIS”, and/or “Made in Italy”—with placement varying by era and design. Our close‑up photos show any stamps present on this pair.
Q: Are they nickel‑free and suitable for sensitive ears? A: Fashion jewellery alloys and platings may contain nickel. If you have sensitivities, opt for hypoallergenic replacement backs/posts where possible, apply a clear barrier product to contact points, and discontinue wear if irritation occurs. We’re happy to advise further.
Q: How should I care for the gold‑tone finish? A: Keep them dry and away from perfume, hairspray, lotions and hand sanitiser; remove before swimming or workouts. After wear, gently wipe with a soft, dry microfibre cloth and store individually in a pouch or box, away from humidity and heat. Avoid ultrasonic cleaners and chemical dips.
Q: Can they be polished, replated or repaired? A: A competent jeweller can often replace or tighten backs, straighten posts and perform gentle replating on plated brass if needed. Note that any modification can affect originality and resale value—ask us for reputable specialists if required.
Q: What condition should I expect, what is included, and can I return them? A: They are in Very Good Condition with light signs of careful wear possible unless noted otherwise. This listing includes no accessories. Returns are accepted under our standard policy—please see the Returns information for eligibility, timeframes and conditions, and ensure the item is returned in the same condition received.
