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. The hinged clip fastening secures to the earlobe without a piercing, and they can also be worn by pierced ears. For best comfort, ensure the clip sits centred on the lobe and is not overly tightened.
Q: How can I adjust the clips for a comfortable fit? A: Small adjustments go a long way. If the clips feel tight, a jeweller can slightly ease the hinge tension; if they feel loose, the tension can be tightened. Adding silicone or foam comfort pads can cushion pressure and improve grip. Avoid forceful bending to prevent stressing vintage hardware.
Q: Will clip‑on earrings hurt or feel heavy during wear? A: Comfort depends on clip tension, earlobe thickness and wear time. These measure approximately 2 × 2 × 1 cm, a size most find manageable. If you’re new to clip‑ons, start with shorter wear periods and use comfort pads if needed. Take brief breaks during long events.
Q: What is included with this pair? A: According to the product information on this page, a box is included. If an item is not listed in the product information, it is not included.
Q: What is the condition of the earrings? A: Very Good. There are light traces of use, and the gold‑tone hardware is shiny with light scratches, consistent with gentle vintage wear. Please refer to the photos for close‑ups of surfaces and edges.
Q: How do I look after gold‑tone Hermès fashion jewellery? A: Wipe after wear with a soft, dry cloth. If needed, use lukewarm water with a little mild soap, then dry thoroughly. Avoid abrasive cloths, jewellery dips, ultrasonic cleaners, perfumes and hairspray directly on the pieces. Store separately in a pouch or box to minimise scratching.
Q: Are they authentic Hermès? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously authenticated by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, construction, and markings. We stand behind the authenticity of all items and can share additional photos or details on request.
Q: Are they hypoallergenic? A: The exact alloy and plating thickness are not specified. As with many gold‑tone fashion jewellery pieces, those with metal sensitivities may prefer to limit wear time and use comfort pads as a barrier. If you have known allergies, consider a brief patch‑test wear and consult a professional if needed.
Q: Can clip‑on earrings be converted to pierced backs? A: Many clip‑ons can be converted by a professional jeweller, but this may alter the original design and can affect collectability and resale value. If you’re considering conversion, consult a trusted jeweller first and retain any original parts.
