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 Christian Dior Hoop Earrings authentic? A: Yes. Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously vetted by our in‑house experts and sold with our authenticity commitment. Shop with confidence.
Q: What are they made from? Are they solid gold? A: These are fashion jewellery hoops crafted in gold‑tone metal with crystal embellishments and dangling ‘DIOR’ letter charms. They are not solid gold unless explicitly stated. Many contemporary Dior fashion pieces use plated brass or similar base metals with crystals. If you’d like us to confirm any specific composition details visible on this pair, just ask.
Q: What are the measurements and how do they read on the ear? A: The listing notes approximately 3 cm (height) x 0.4 cm (width) x 1.8 cm (depth). This size wears as a refined, mid‑scale hoop with a playful logo charm drop. If you’d like the exact gram weight or a photo on ear for scale, message us and we’ll provide it.
Q: How do they fasten and are they secure? A: They feature a clasp/latch‑style hoop closure designed for pierced ears. Ensure the latch clicks fully into place before wear. For extra peace of mind, you can add small silicone stabilisers or disc backs behind the lobe, and periodically check the latch tension to avoid loosening over time.
Q: Are they comfortable for daily wear? Will the charms tangle in hair or scarves? A: The hoops are designed for regular wear and should feel comfortable for most. As with any dangle detail, the letter charms can catch on loose knits or hair—take care when changing tops/scarves and store separately to prevent tangling.
Q: Are they nickel‑free and suitable for sensitive ears? A: Fashion jewellery alloys may contain nickel. If you have sensitive ears, consider wearing for shorter intervals initially, keep the piercings dry and clean, and discontinue use if irritation occurs. Those with known nickel allergy often prefer higher‑karat gold or titanium for everyday wear.
Q: What hallmarks or stamps should I expect on Dior earrings? A: Dior jewellery typically bears a DIOR/CD signature stamp; some pieces also include country of origin (often Italy/Germany on vintage) or collection marks. Placement varies (on the hoop, charm, or a small plaque). Our close‑up photos show any stamps present on this pair.
Q: How should I care for the gold‑tone finish and crystals? A: Keep them dry and away from perfume, lotions, hairspray and hand sanitiser. After wear, gently wipe with a soft, dry microfibre cloth; use a dry cotton bud around crystal settings. Do not soak, use ultrasonic cleaners or chemical dips. Store individually in a pouch/box, away from humidity and direct sunlight, to preserve the finish and sparkle.
Q: Can I wear them in water or to sleep? A: We recommend removing fashion jewellery before showering, swimming, exercising and sleeping. Moisture, friction and pressure accelerate plating wear and can stress latches and crystal settings.
Q: Can they be repaired, replated, or can missing crystals/charms be replaced? A: A competent jeweller can often tighten a latch, reset or replace missing crystals, and perform light replating of worn areas. Charm alterations are possible but may affect originality and resale value. We don’t offer in‑house modifications; contact us for reputable specialists if needed.
Q: What condition should I expect, what is included, and can I return them? A: These earrings are in Very Good Condition, with light signs of careful wear possible unless noted otherwise. Accessories are not included unless specifically shown or listed—this item comes with no accessories. Returns are accepted under our standard policy—please see our Returns page for eligibility, timeframes and conditions, and ensure the item is returned in the same condition received.
