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 Georg Jensen clip-on 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 sterling silver? A: These vintage earrings are crafted in sterling silver (925), not silver‑plated. The sculptural foliate design is typical of Georg Jensen’s Danish modern aesthetic. If you’d like us to confirm any hallmark details on this pair, just ask and we’ll review the close‑up photos for you.
Q: What are the measurements and how will they sit on the ear? A: Each earring is listed at approximately 2.2 cm (height) × 1.3 cm (width) × 0.8 cm (depth). The clip‑on style sits snugly on the lobe with a refined, sculptural presence. If you’d like the precise gram weight or a photo on model for scale, message us and we’ll provide it.
Q: How secure and comfortable are the clip‑ons? Can the tension be adjusted? A: Georg Jensen clip‑on mechanisms are designed for a secure hold. Comfort can be improved with small silicone/felt pads, and a jeweller can usually fine‑tune the clip tension. For best comfort, avoid continuous wear for very long periods and check the clip is properly aligned before use. We’re happy to advise on pads and fit tips.
Q: Can clip‑on earrings be converted to pierced posts? A: Many vintage clip‑ons can be professionally converted to posts, but any alteration may affect originality and resale value. We do not offer in‑house modifications; if you are considering a conversion, we can suggest reputable jewellers and discuss non‑invasive comfort options first (pads or tension adjustment).
Q: What hallmarks should I expect on Georg Jensen sterling earrings? A: Typical marks include the GEORG JENSEN oval, “925S” (sterling), “DENMARK,” and sometimes designer initials or model numbers. Placement varies by era and design. Our listing images show any stamps present on this pair.
Q: Are they suitable for sensitive skin? Is sterling silver nickel‑free? A: Sterling silver (925) is usually alloyed with copper and is generally considered nickel‑free, though sensitivities vary and some alloys may include trace elements. If you have metal allergies, trial wear briefly, keep the area dry, consider barrier products on contact points, and discontinue use if irritation occurs. We’re happy to advise further.
Q: How should I care for and clean sterling silver earrings? A: Keep them dry and away from perfume, hairspray, lotions and cleaning chemicals. After wear, wipe gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth. For light tarnish, use a non‑abrasive silver polishing cloth; avoid chemical dips and ultrasonic cleaners, especially on pieces with clips or any patina. Store individually in a pouch/box to prevent scratches and slow tarnish.
Q: What condition should I expect, what is included, and can I return them? A: These earrings are in Very Good Condition with light, careful wear possible unless noted otherwise. This listing includes no accessories unless specifically shown or stated. Returns are accepted under our standard policy—please ensure the item is returned in the same condition received and within the stated timeframe.
Q: Where were they made and what era are they from? A: The earrings are noted as Denmark. Georg Jensen hallmark styles have evolved over time; the presence and format of stamps (GEORG JENSEN oval, 925S, DENMARK, designer initials) can help indicate period. If you’d like us to assess the hallmarks on this pair for era guidance, we’re happy to assist.
