Perfect for black-tie events, weddings or festive dinners, these Christian Dior Secret Cannage drop earrings add a refined glow with their gold‑tone cage drops, faux pearl accents and discreet CD studs. In very good condition, they elevate a sleek evening dress or tailored suit without overpowering your look.
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 is the Secret Cannage design inspired by? A: Secret Cannage pays homage to Dior’s Cannage motif, a geometric lattice inspired by the canework on Napoleon III chairs seen in the House’s early salons. In this style, the motif forms an openwork sphere that encases a luminous faux pearl for a refined drop effect.
Q: What materials are these made from? A: Dior fashion jewellery typically uses a gold‑tone metal finish with resin (faux) pearls. This pair features a CD logo stud and a spherical Cannage cage drop with a faux pearl accent, offering the look of fine jewellery with day‑to‑evening wearability.
Q: Are these for pierced ears and what type of fastening do they have? A: Yes. They are designed for pierced ears and secure with standard push‑back (butterfly) clutches on posts for quick, reliable fastening.
Q: How big are they in person? A: The drop measures approximately 2.5 cm with a width of around 1 cm at the cage. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for the precise figures.
Q: Are they heavy to wear? A: They have a light‑to‑medium feel typical of Dior’s resin‑pearl drops and are comfortable for most wearers across a full day. If you’re sensitive to weight, we’re happy to provide exact grams on request.
Q: Are they suitable for sensitive ears? A: Sensitivities vary. As with most fashion jewellery, the brand does not publish full alloy composition, and we cannot guarantee nickel‑free content. If you have a known nickel allergy, consider using protective earring sleeves or silicone stoppers, and limit wear time. Regulations in the UK/EU restrict nickel release, but individual reactions can still occur.
Q: How should I care for gold‑tone and resin‑pearl earrings? A: Follow “last on, first off”: apply perfume, hairspray and lotions before putting them on. After wear, gently wipe with a soft dry cloth. Avoid soaking, abrasive polishes, harsh chemicals and ultrasonic cleaners. Store separately in a soft pouch to minimise scratches and preserve the finish.
Q: Do they come with a Dior box or spare backs? A: Everything included is listed under Accessories. For this pair, Accessories states no accessories. Replacement butterfly backs are widely available if you wish to add spares.
Q: How do you authenticate this item? A: Every piece at A Retro Tale is rigorously vetted by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, construction, hallmarks and logos. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and are happy to provide additional photos or details on request.
Q: Can I style them with matching pieces? A: Yes. Dior has produced complementary Secret Cannage and Cannage‑inspired jewellery (bracelets, necklaces and other earrings) featuring gold‑tone finishes and resin pearls, making these drops easy to pair for occasion looks.
