Ideal for spring garden parties or weekend brunch, these vintage Chanel light green marbled resin clip-on earrings add a chic pop of pastel to dresses and suiting alike. The gold-toned CC detail brings subtle glamour, making them perfect for weddings, gallery openings, or elevating everyday looks without the need for piercings.
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 non‑pierced ears? A: Yes. The clip-on closure is designed for non‑pierced ears and can also be worn on pierced ears. Adjusting the clip tension and using soft pads can further improve comfort and stability.
Q: Do clip‑on earrings pinch? How can I make them more comfortable? A: Comfort varies by ear shape and clip tension. Simple tweaks help a lot: add silicone or foam comfort pads to the clips, adjust the clip tension slightly, and take short breaks during very long wear. A professional jeweller can fine‑tune the mechanism for you.
Q: Can the clip tension be adjusted? A: Many clip mechanisms can be gently tightened or loosened to improve fit. Because vintage hardware can be delicate, any adjustment is best done carefully or by a jeweller to avoid stressing the hinge. Comfort pads also distribute pressure and reduce pinching.
Q: How do I care for the resin and gold‑toned finish? A: Wipe after wear with a soft, dry cloth. Keep away from perfume, hairspray, hand sanitiser, and household cleaners. Avoid prolonged sunlight or heat, and store in a padded pouch, separated from other pieces to prevent scratches on the resin and hardware.
Q: Can resin change colour over time? A: Resin can gradually yellow if exposed to strong UV light or high heat. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the light green marbled colour.
Q: What are the measurements and how heavy do they feel? A: The earrings measure approximately 1.5 × 1.5 cm. The resin construction keeps them lightweight and comfortable for most wearers.
Q: Are these authentic vintage Chanel? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is authenticated by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks. Many vintage Chanel earrings feature a maker’s plaque or stamp on the reverse; stamp styles vary by era. We are happy to share additional product information on request.
Q: What is included with this piece? A: Everything included is listed under the product information section on this page. For this specific pair, no additional items are listed.
Q: Where was this piece made? A: The origin for this item is listed as France on the product page.
Q: Are they suitable for sensitive ears or nickel allergies? A: Clip‑ons avoid piercing, but the metal clip still touches the skin. Vintage costume jewellery may use base‑metal alloys that can include nickel. If you have sensitivities, consider barrier pads on the clips, limit initial wear time, and consult a jeweller about protective options.
