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 to sit securely on the earlobe without the need for pierced ears.
Q: How can I make clip-on earrings more comfortable and secure? A: Start with clean, dry earlobes and avoid oils or creams where the clip sits. Adding soft silicone comfort pads can cushion pressure and improve grip. If a clip feels too tight or loose, a professional jeweller can fine-tune the hinge tension for a better fit—avoid bending the metal yourself to protect the plating and mechanism.
Q: How should I care for Chanel costume jewellery? A: Keep them away from moisture, perfume and cosmetics; put jewellery on last and remove it first. If they get wet, dry gently with a non‑pilling cloth. Store them separately in a dry place, out of prolonged sunlight, and wipe with a soft cloth after wear to preserve the gold‑tone finish.
Q: Will the gold‑plated finish tarnish or fade over time? A: With regular wear, light surface marks and gradual softening of tone can occur on plated finishes, especially on vintage pieces. Minimising contact with water, lotions and friction will help. Avoid abrasive polishing; use only a soft cloth. Any refinishing should be discussed with a specialist, as alterations can affect originality and value.
Q: Do vintage Chanel clip‑on earrings have stamps or date marks? A: Many do. Depending on the era, you may see a round or oval signature plate on the back reading CHANEL and the country of origin, and on later pieces a season/year code. Not every authentic vintage piece is marked, and stamp styles vary by period.
Q: Can these be converted for pierced ears? A: Non‑permanent converters exist, but we generally recommend keeping vintage Chanel earrings in their original clip‑on format to preserve integrity and value. If you are considering any modification, consult an experienced jeweller first.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything that comes with the earrings is listed in the product information on this page. If a brand box, dust pouch or spare pads are not listed there, they are not included—feel free to ask us to confirm.
Q: What is the condition of this pair? A: They are in Very Good Condition with a shiny finish and light surface scratches to the hardware, consistent with gentle wear. Please refer to the photos for close‑ups and contact us for any additional details.
Q: How big are they and how do they sit on the ear? A: Each earring measures approximately 3 cm in height and 1 cm in depth. They are designed to sit neatly on the earlobe with a secure clip fastening. If you’d like an on‑ear photo for scale, our team can provide one.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate Chanel jewellery? A: Every piece is rigorously vetted by our in‑house experts through multi‑point checks of materials, construction, hallmark plates and period‑correct details. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can share additional photos or notes on request.
