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 Chanel CC Clip‑on 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 or silver? A: These are Chanel costume jewellery earrings crafted in mixed silver‑ and gold‑tone metal with a sunburst CC motif. They are not solid gold or sterling silver unless explicitly stated.
Q: What are the measurements and how will they sit on the ear? A: Each earring is approximately 2.3 cm (height) x 2.3 cm (width) x 1.0 cm (depth). This size offers a noticeable yet wearable presence on the lobe. If you’d like the precise gram weight or a photo on model for scale, just let us know.
Q: How do clip‑on earrings fasten, and will these stay secure? A: They use a hinged clip that gently grips the earlobe. Ensure the clip is properly aligned and the tension feels snug but comfortable before wearing. Optional silicone or foam comfort pads can add grip and reduce pressure.
Q: Are clip‑ons comfortable? What can I do if they pinch? A: Comfort varies by lobe shape and clip style. Tips include adding soft pads, adjusting the clip tension slightly (a jeweller can assist), limiting wear to a few hours at a time, and repositioning the clip higher or lower on the lobe. Discontinue wear if you feel persistent discomfort.
Q: Do Chanel earrings have hallmarks or stamps? A: Many vintage Chanel earrings feature an oval or round plaque stamped CHANEL and, depending on era, a season/date code and country of origin. Placement varies by collection. Our listing photos show any stamps present on this pair.
Q: Are they suitable for sensitive skin? Are they nickel‑free? A: Fashion jewellery alloys and platings may contain nickel. Sensitivities differ; if you’re nickel‑sensitive, consider using clear barrier products on contact points, limit wear time, and stop wearing if irritation occurs. We’re happy to advise further.
Q: How should I care for the silver/gold‑tone finish? A: Keep them dry and away from perfume, hairspray, lotions and hand sanitiser. After wear, wipe gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth. Avoid soaking, ultrasonic cleaners and chemical dips. Store separately in a pouch or box to prevent friction and scratches.
Q: Can they be converted to pierced earrings or repaired? A: Many jewellers can adjust or repair clip mechanisms and may offer post conversions; however, modifications can affect originality and resale value. We don’t perform in‑house alterations but can suggest non‑invasive comfort solutions and reputable specialists.
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 stated otherwise. This listing includes no accessories. Returns are accepted under our standard policy—please review our Returns information for eligibility, timeframes and conditions, and ensure the item is returned in the same condition received.
