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 suitable for pierced ears and what is the size?
A: Yes, they feature a post‑back fastening for pierced ears. The drop is approximately 3 cm with a width of about 1 cm, offering a delicate dangling look that is easy to wear day or night.
Q: What are they made of?
A: These vintage Chanel earrings have pink resin charms with CC logo details and gunmetal‑tone plated metal hardware. As with most Chanel costume jewellery, the metal is plated rather than solid precious metal.
Q: What is the condition?
A: Very Good. There are minor marks on the hardware with light surface scratches and slight tarnish consistent with gentle vintage wear. Please review the photos for a close‑up view of the finish.
Q: Will they feel heavy on the ear?
A: The resin construction keeps them relatively light for a dangle style. If you prefer extra support, consider using larger comfort backs or silicone stabilisers on the posts.
Q: How should I care for Chanel costume jewellery like this?
A: Put on jewellery last and remove it first; avoid contact with water, perfume, lotions, and hair products; wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth after wear; and store pieces separately in a soft pouch away from direct sunlight and humidity.
Q: Can the metal finish tarnish or darken over time?
A: Plated finishes can show natural wear or tarnish with exposure to moisture, cosmetics, and sweat. Good after‑care and dry storage help preserve the colour and shine; avoid ordinary plastic bags unless they are specifically anti‑tarnish.
Q: Are these earrings hypoallergenic or nickel‑free?
A: Chanel costume jewellery may contain base‑metal components, and we cannot guarantee nickel‑free posts. If you have sensitive ears, consider using protective sleeves/comfort backs, limit wear time at first, and follow dermatologist guidance on nickel allergy management.
Q: Can I wear them in the shower, pool, or while sleeping?
A: It is best to remove them before bathing, swimming, exercising, or sleeping. Water, sweat, and friction can dull the plating and affect resin elements over time.
Q: How can I tell the era of vintage Chanel earrings?
A: Many vintage pieces have a small signature plaque on the reverse. Round plaques were common in the 1970s; oval plaques appeared from the mid‑1980s; and from the early 1990s, plaques often include season/year markings. Authentic stamps vary by era and are one of several factors experts review.
Q: What is included with this item?
A: Everything included is listed in the product information on this page. This listing currently shows no additional items included.
