Ideal for Valentine’s dates, weddings and cocktail parties, these vintage Chanel gold-tone heart clip-on earrings lend romantic polish and signature CC charm to ensembles from day to evening.
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 suitable for non‑pierced ears? A: Yes. They feature a classic clip‑on fastening designed for non‑pierced lobes. The hinge/clip provides a secure hold and can be paired with soft silicone pads for extra comfort and stability.
Q: How comfortable are clip‑on earrings and can I adjust the fit? A: Clip‑ons apply gentle pressure to stay in place. For comfort, start with short wear times, add silicone cushions to the clip, and make tiny tension adjustments to the hinge if needed. Small changes make a big difference—avoid over‑bending and test as you go.
Q: Will they stay on securely during events? A: Yes, when correctly tensioned. Ensure the clips aren’t too loose or too tight, keep the ear area clean and dry, and use clip‑on pads if you prefer extra grip. We recommend a trial wear at home before a long occasion.
Q: What do they look like on the ear and how big are they? A: They are statement‑sized heart‑shaped studs with the interlocking CC. Approximate dimensions are 3.2 × 3.5 × 1 cm (H × W × D). The gold‑tone finish gives a bold vintage look while remaining versatile for day or evening wear.
Q: How should I care for gold‑tone Chanel costume jewellery? A: Handle with care, avoid contact with water, perfumes, lotions and high heat, and remove before exercise. Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth after wear and store each piece separately in a breathable pouch to minimise scratches and oxidation. Do not use ultrasonic cleaners or harsh chemicals.
Q: Do vintage Chanel earrings have hallmark stamps? A: Many vintage pairs carry an oval cartouche on the reverse stamped CHANEL and MADE IN FRANCE; some also show season/date codes (e.g., 94P indicates Spring 1994). Stamps alone aren’t definitive—overall construction, materials and finish are assessed as part of authentication.
Q: Can these be converted to pierced backs? A: Some jewellers can convert clip‑ons, but we do not offer this service and generally advise keeping vintage designer pieces original to preserve collector value and avoid damaging the mechanism or plating.
Q: Are they heavy to wear? A: Vintage gold‑tone earrings have a reassuring presence but comfort varies by wearer and clip tension. If you have sensitive lobes, use silicone pads, adjust tension slightly, and limit continuous wear. Contact us if you’d like the exact gram weight measured.
Q: What accessories are included with this pair? A: As listed, no accessories are included. If a box, dust bag or card is not mentioned under Accessories, it is not part of the sale. Please ask if you need clarification.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate jewellery? A: Every item is vetted by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, construction, hardware, stamps and overall craftsmanship. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can share additional details on request.
