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 earrings made from? A: Chanel costume jewellery is typically crafted from plated base metal with strass (rhinestone) crystals. This pair is silver‑tone; it is not solid sterling silver.
Q: Are they for pierced ears and can the backs be replaced? A: Yes—these have push‑back posts for pierced ears. If needed, most jewellers can supply compatible butterfly backs, and adding small silicone stoppers can provide extra security.
Q: How should I care for Chanel rhinestone earrings? A: Put them on last and take them off first. Avoid contact with water, perfume, lotions, hairspray, and household chemicals; keep away from high humidity and prolonged sunlight; store individually in a soft pouch or box; and wipe gently with a soft, dry, lint‑free cloth. Do not soak or use ultrasonic cleaners, as moisture and vibration can loosen stones and dull the finish.
Q: Can I wear them every day? A: Daily wear is possible, but to preserve the plating and crystals we recommend rotating wear, removing them before exercise, showering or swimming, and avoiding direct contact with cosmetics and fragrances.
Q: Are they suitable for sensitive ears or nickel allergy? A: Vintage costume jewellery may contain nickel beneath the plating. If you have a known nickel sensitivity, proceed with caution, consider protective barrier sleeves for posts, and discontinue wear if irritation occurs. A dermatologist can advise on metals that are better suited for you.
Q: How can I tell if a pair of vintage Chanel earrings is authentic? A: Check construction and hallmarks. Many pieces have an oval or circular cartouche stamped CHANEL with copyright and registered symbols; some eras show season letters (A for Autumn, P for Printemps) flanking a CC logo, plus a country stamp such as Made in France or Made in Italy. Stamps should be crisp and era‑consistent, but not every piece is marked the same—compare to trusted guides or seek a professional opinion.
Q: Can Chanel boutiques repair or replace missing rhinestones? A: Chanel’s advertised after‑sales services focus on fine jewellery; availability of repairs for fashion/costume pieces varies by boutique and by item. If a stone loosens or falls out, stop wearing the earrings and consult a professional costume‑jewellery restorer, who can often source like‑for‑like crystals and secure the setting.
Q: How do I clean them safely at home? A: Use only a soft, dry cloth. If needed, very lightly dampen the cloth and clean around settings, then dry immediately. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive cloths, steam, soaking, and ultrasonic devices.
Q: What are the measurements and how do they sit on the ear? A: Approx. 1.9 × 1.9 × 1.1 cm. The compact, classic CC profile sits neatly on the lobe with a bright rhinestone sparkle.
Q: What is included with this pair? A: A box is included. Everything supplied is listed under Accessories on this page; items not listed are not included.
