Perfect for cocktail parties, gallery openings or polished office days, these vintage Céline knot hoop earrings in silver-tone bring understated elegance from day to night.
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: What size are the hoops? A: They are small, sitting close to the lobe. Our measurements are approximately 2 cm in diameter with a 0.7 cm hoop thickness. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for full details.
Q: What are they made of? A: Rhodium‑plated (silver‑tone) brass with a polished finish. This construction gives the bright silver look of rhodium while keeping the piece durable yet refined.
Q: Are they suitable for sensitive ears? A: Celine states its jewellery is nickel‑free and hypoallergenic. As this is a vintage piece, composition and past wear can vary slightly; if you have a severe metal sensitivity, consider using barrier discs/sleeves or consult a jeweller before extended wear.
Q: How do they fasten and are they secure? A: They feature a hinged post for pierced ears. To close, gently guide the post into the latch until it clicks; avoid forcing the hinge and ensure it is fully engaged before wearing.
Q: Will the silver‑tone finish tarnish or change colour? A: Rhodium is highly resistant to tarnish, but any plated finish can dull with exposure to cosmetics, fragrance, perspiration or abrasion. Occasional gentle polishing with a soft, dry cloth will help maintain the shine.
Q: Can I shower, swim or sleep in them? A: We recommend removing them before bathing, swimming, exercising or sleeping. Water, salt, chlorine and repeated friction can stress the hinge and diminish the rhodium finish over time.
Q: How should I care for them day to day? A: Wipe with a soft, lint‑free cloth after wear, avoid chemical cleaners and silver dips, and store latched in the provided dust bag or box to prevent scratches and friction. Keep perfumes and lotions away from the metal.
Q: What is included in the product information? A: This pair comes with a box and a dust bag, as listed under product information on this page. If an item isn’t listed there, it is not included.
Q: What is the condition of this pair? A: Very Good Condition overall with a bright shine and light surface scratches consistent with gentle wear. Please review the photos for close‑ups before purchasing.
Q: How do you authenticate these earrings? A: Every piece at A Retro Tale undergoes multi‑point authentication by our in‑house experts, including checks of materials, finishing, stamps and signature details. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell.
