Perfect for cocktail parties, weddings, and elegant dinners, these vintage Chanel Coco Mark earrings add refined sparkle to any ensemble. The gold‑tone clover silhouette and signature CC centre elevate both eveningwear and polished daytime looks.
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 are these made of? Are they solid gold? A: These are Chanel costume jewellery earrings with gold-tone hardware. Costume pieces are typically crafted from gilt or plated base metal rather than solid precious metal. Chanel’s precious metal pieces are part of the Fine Jewellery range. Please refer to the product information on this page, where these are described as gold-tone hardware.
Q: Are they clip-ons or for pierced ears? A: This pair features a post-back closure for pierced ears. Chanel has produced both clip-on and pierced styles over the decades; this specific design is for pierced lobes, as stated in the product information.
Q: What size are they and how do they sit on the ear? A: Approximate dimensions are 2 × 2 × 1.5 cm. They wear as compact, clover-shaped studs with a central CC logo, sitting neatly on the earlobe. If you prefer an exact sense of scale, compare the measurements with a ruler and review the photos.
Q: Are they suitable for sensitive ears or nickel allergies? A: As with most fashion jewellery, the metal composition can include base metals, and we cannot guarantee they are nickel-free. If you have sensitive ears, we suggest short initial wear tests, using silicone comfort backs or barrier discs, and avoiding moisture, perfume, and lotions on the posts. A professional jeweller can also advise on hypoallergenic clutch backs.
Q: How should I care for and clean them? A: Put them on after applying fragrance, hair products, or skincare. Avoid contact with water, soaps, or chemical cleaners. After wearing, gently buff with a soft, dry cloth and store each piece separately in a pouch or box away from humidity and direct light.
Q: Will the gold-tone finish wear with time? A: Normal patina and some surface wear can develop with age and friction, especially on high-contact areas such as edges and backs. Minimise wear by removing the earrings before exercising, swimming, or showering, and by storing them carefully when not in use.
Q: How can I tell if vintage Chanel earrings are authentic, and where is the stamp? A: Many Chanel earrings carry a small plaque on the back with CHANEL and country of manufacture (often France or Italy). Late 1980s onward pieces may include season codes. Stamps alone are not conclusive—weight, construction, finish, and overall quality also matter. Every item at A Retro Tale is authenticated through multi‑point expert checks, and we stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under product information. For this pair, a box is included as indicated on this page. If an item is not listed there, it is not included.
Q: Can a jeweller adjust or replace the backs? A: These use a standard post-and-butterfly fitting. A professional jeweller can replace worn clutches or add comfort discs if desired. Please note that irreversible alterations may affect collectability and future resale; if in doubt, ask us before modifying the piece.
