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 Christian Dior Tribales 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 the pearls real and is the metal solid gold? A: Dior Tribales are typically crafted from gold‑ or silver‑finish base metal (often brass) with white resin pearls and crystal/rhinestone details. They are not solid gold, and the pearls are imitation/resin rather than natural pearls. This pair features gold‑tone hardware, a Dior logo stud, dangling chains with rhinestone embellishments, a star detail, and a large pearl backing. If you’d like us to confirm any specific composition marks on this exact pair, just ask and we’ll check the close‑ups for you.
Q: How do they fasten and how should I wear them correctly? A: Tribales are designed as asymmetric earrings with a smaller front element and a larger pearl at the back of the earlobe. Our listing notes a post/push‑back closure for this pair; orient the front (logo stud and decorative chains) on the lobe and seat the backing securely so the larger pearl sits neatly behind the ear. Tip: insert the post, support the lobe gently, then align the back straight to minimise droop.
Q: Are they suitable for sensitive ears? Are they nickel‑free? A: Fashion jewellery alloys may contain nickel and can irritate sensitive ears. Dior offers both pierced and clip‑on Tribales styles, but we cannot guarantee nickel‑free content for vintage/fashion pieces. If you have sensitivities, consider barrier products on the post, medical‑grade comfort discs, or consulting a jeweller about alternative backs. Discontinue wear if irritation occurs and contact us for guidance.
Q: Will they feel heavy or pull on the earlobe? A: Statement Tribales with decorative chains can feel more noticeable than simple studs. This pair measures approximately 5 cm (height) x 1 cm (width) x 1.5 cm (depth). For added comfort and support, use larger stabiliser backs or silicone discs, avoid sleeping in them, and angle the backing so the weight is evenly distributed.
Q: Can I mix and match the backs/fronts with other Tribales? Are replacements available if I lose one? A: Many Tribales models are designed to be mixed and matched across the line. Boutiques may assist with replacement components or single earrings at their discretion and subject to availability. We don’t supply spare parts in‑house, but we’re happy to advise on options; availability varies by season and style.
Q: What hallmarks or stamps should I expect on Dior earrings? A: Dior fashion jewellery typically bears a DIOR or CD signature and may include a country of origin stamp (often Italy or Germany). Placement varies by model (on the backing, post, or plaque). Our listing photos show any stamps present on this pair—ask if you’d like us to point them out.
Q: How should I care for the gold‑tone finish, resin pearls and rhinestones? A: Keep the earrings dry and away from perfume, lotions, hairspray and hand sanitiser. After wear, gently wipe with a soft, dry microfibre cloth; avoid soaking, ultrasonic cleaners and chemical dips. Store individually in a pouch/box to prevent scratches, and handle the dangling chains and star motif with care to avoid snagging.
Q: Are they clip‑on or for pierced ears? A: Dior produces both clip‑on and pierced Tribales. This pair is noted with a post/push‑back closure, so it is intended for pierced ears.
Q: What condition should I expect, what is included, and can I return them? A: These earrings are in Very Good Condition with light signs of careful wear possible unless noted otherwise. This listing includes no accessories unless specifically shown. Returns are accepted under our standard policy—please review our Returns page for eligibility, timeframes and conditions, and ensure the item is returned in the same condition received.
