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. They feature a classic clip‑on closure designed for non‑pierced ears. For extra comfort, you can add small silicone or foam pads to cushion the clip and help distribute pressure more evenly.
Q: Will clip‑on earrings stay secure during wear? A: When positioned on the thicker part of the earlobe, clip‑ons sit securely for most wearers. If your pair has an adjustable screw, tighten it just until snug. Pads can also increase grip and comfort. A jeweller can fine‑tune clip tension if needed.
Q: How big are these and how do they sit on the ear? A: The earrings measure approximately 2 × 2 × 0.8 cm. The enamel flower motif sits neatly on the lobe, giving a compact, feminine look that works well for everyday wear and occasions.
Q: What are they made of? A: Dior fashion jewellery is typically crafted from metal with gold‑ or silver‑tone finishes rather than solid precious metals. This pair features a silver‑tone finish with an enamel flower design.
Q: How should I care for the enamel and metal finish? A: Wipe gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Avoid harsh chemicals, ultrasonic cleaners, and prolonged contact with water, perfumes, lotions, or hairspray. Store each earring separately in a soft pouch to prevent chips and scratches.
Q: Are they hypoallergenic? A: As vintage fashion jewellery often uses plated base metals, we cannot guarantee these are nickel‑free. If you have sensitive skin, consider using protective pads or barrier patches and limit wear time until you know your tolerance.
Q: Can clip‑ons be converted to pierced earrings? A: It is technically possible, but we do not recommend altering vintage Dior pieces, as modifications may reduce collectability and value and can risk damaging the enamel. Non‑invasive clip‑on comfort pads are a safer alternative.
Q: How can I tell if vintage Dior earrings are authentic? A: Many vintage Dior clip‑ons are signed on the reverse; hallmarks and stamp styles vary by era (for example, “Chr. Dior” on some mid‑century pieces and “Christian Dior” with a copyright mark on later designs). Stamps are often found on the back or on the clip mechanism. At A Retro Tale, every item is carefully authenticated by our in‑house experts before listing.
Q: What is included with this pair? A: Please refer to the product information section on this page for everything included. If no extras are listed there, the earrings are sold as shown.
