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 authentic Versace earrings? A: Yes. Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully authenticated by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, construction, stamps and overall workmanship. Versace also offers an authenticity system for many contemporary items; because this is a vintage piece, not all modern identifiers may be present, which is normal for the era.
Q: What is the closure type and are they suitable for non‑pierced ears? A: They feature a classic clip‑on fastening designed for non‑pierced ears. Clip‑ons are secure and convenient; if you are new to clip‑ons, start with shorter wear times and increase gradually so your lobes can adjust.
Q: Are they comfortable to wear for several hours? A: Comfort varies by ear shape and sensitivity. These statement earrings have presence; for longer wear, consider adding soft silicone clip cushions, ensure the clip is not overly tight, and take brief breaks. A jeweller can make minor tension adjustments if needed.
Q: Are they suitable for sensitive skin? A: The earrings are fashion jewellery with a gold‑tone finish and black enamel. Versace states its current fashion jewellery is made with hypoallergenic, lead‑ and nickel‑free materials, but compositions may vary on vintage pieces. If you have sensitivities, we recommend a short test wear and using clip pads as a barrier.
Q: What are the dimensions and how bold is the look? A: Approximately 6 × 2.5 × 1.2 cm (H × W × D). The size gives a confident, vintage Versace statement. Please refer to Measurements on this page for the exact dimensions.
Q: How should I care for gold‑tone metal and enamel details? A: Wipe after wear with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid perfume, hairspray, lotions, water and ultrasonic cleaners. Store separately to prevent scratches. Enamel is durable but can chip if knocked, so avoid impact and abrasive cloths. For deeper cleaning, use only a lightly dampened cloth on metal areas and keep moisture away from the enamel as much as possible; dry thoroughly.
Q: Can the clip tension be adjusted or the backs replaced? A: Many clip mechanisms allow small tension tweaks. We recommend having adjustments or replacement pads done by a professional jeweller to avoid stressing the plating or enamel. Clip cushions are an easy at‑home comfort add‑on.
Q: Can these be converted to pierced earrings? A: Some jewellers can add posts, but modification may affect the finish, risk the enamel and reduce collectability. We recommend enjoying them as designed in clip‑on form.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under the product information section on this page. If a branded box, dust bag or other items are not specifically listed there, they are not included.
