Perfect for summer weddings, garden parties or chic brunches, these vintage Hermès clip-on earrings add a playful yet polished touch. In white fabric with blue and purple florals and gold‑tone accents, their clip-on closure offers comfortable elegance for non‑pierced ears, elevating printed dresses, crisp shirting or tailored looks.
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 clip-on closure designed for non‑pierced ears. Clip-ons can also be worn comfortably by those with pierced ears if you prefer to give your piercings a rest or want more placement flexibility on the lobe.
Q: How secure and comfortable are clip-on earrings for long wear? A: A good fit should feel snug but not painful. For extra comfort and grip, many wearers add soft silicone cushions to the clips and take short breaks during extended wear. If you experience pinching or slipping, simple adjustments by a professional jeweller can improve comfort.
Q: Can the clip tension be adjusted? A: Minor tension adjustments are possible depending on the clip style, but we recommend having a qualified jeweller assess and adjust them to avoid stressing the hinge or plating. Cushion pads can also reduce pressure without altering the mechanism.
Q: What are they made of? A: This vintage pair combines gold‑tone hardware with fabric in a blue and purple floral pattern. Hermès fashion jewellery often uses gold‑plated finishes and mixed materials. As with many vintage pieces, exact metal composition is not always specified.
Q: How should I care for the gold‑tone and fabric elements? A: Wipe metal gently with a soft, dry cloth after wear. If deeper cleaning is needed, use a little mild soap and water on a cloth, then dry thoroughly—avoid abrasives and chemical cleaners that can thin plating. Keep fabric parts away from moisture, perfumes and oils; dab only, do not soak. Store separately in a dry pouch to minimise scratches and snags.
Q: What is the size and how will they sit on the ear? A: Approximately 3 × 3 cm. They offer a medium statement look that typically sits centred on the lower lobe. If you have thinner or thicker lobes, comfort can be improved with silicone pads or a jeweller’s micro‑adjustment.
Q: Are they nickel‑free or hypoallergenic? A: Material composition for vintage fashion jewellery can vary and nickel content is not guaranteed. If you have sensitivities, consider using clip cushions to reduce direct contact and limit wear time until you’re confident they suit your skin.
Q: Can they be converted to pierced earrings? A: Many clip‑on styles can be converted by an experienced jeweller, but conversion alters originality and may affect future resale value. We recommend considering removable comfort pads first if your goal is improved wearability without modification.
Q: Do they come with a box or any extras? A: Everything included with this item is listed under product information. If an item such as a branded box or spare pads is not listed there, it is not included—feel free to ask us if you would like clarification.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this piece? A: Every item is rigorously vetted by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, construction, hardware, signatures and period details. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can share additional photos or details on request.
