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 earrings for pierced ears or clip-on? A: They feature a post-back closure designed for pierced ears. The approximate dimensions are 4 cm height, 2.3 cm width and 1 cm depth.
Q: What are they made of, and are they solid gold? A: Chanel costume jewellery is typically crafted from gold‑tone metal with decorative elements such as leather, resin, glass pearls or crystals. This pair combines gold‑tone hardware with black leather details. They are not solid gold or fine jewellery.
Q: How do I care for Chanel costume jewellery with leather details? A: Keep the earrings dry and avoid contact with water, perfume, lotions and hairspray. Remove before exercising and store them separately in a soft pouch to prevent scratches. Wipe metal gently with a soft, dry cloth. For the leather accents, avoid moisture and conditioners; lightly dust with a dry, lint‑free cloth only.
Q: Can I wear them in the rain, shower or while swimming? A: It is not recommended. Moisture and heat can dull the gold‑tone finish and may damage the leather details. Always remove before bathing, swimming or using a sauna/steam room.
Q: Are they hypoallergenic and nickel‑free? A: Chanel does not market its costume jewellery as hypoallergenic. Like most fashion jewellery, components may include base metals, and individuals with nickel sensitivity may react. If you have sensitive ears, limit wear time, keep the area dry, and consider larger silicone backs for support; choose solid‑gold posts for everyday wear in other earrings if you are highly reactive.
Q: How can I tell vintage Chanel earrings are authentic? A: Many vintage pairs have an oval signature plate on the back stamped with Chanel and the country of manufacture (often France). On later pieces, the stamp may also include a two‑digit year and a season letter (P for Spring, A for Autumn). At A Retro Tale, each piece is authenticated by our specialists using multi‑point checks of materials, construction, stamps and hardware.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under the product information on this page. Unless specifically stated there, extras such as a branded box or dust bag are not included.
Q: Can the posts or backs be replaced? A: Standard butterfly backs can usually be swapped for alternatives like larger comfort discs by a professional jeweller. Altering the posts themselves is not recommended, as it can affect integrity and collectability—consult a specialist before making any modifications.
Q: Where were these made? A: The product information for this pair indicates France as the country of origin.
