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 Céline Macadam 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 real gold? A: These are vintage Céline costume jewellery earrings in a gold‑tone finish (typically plated over a base metal such as brass). They are not solid gold unless explicitly stated. This pair is labelled Made in Italy and features the Macadam logo with a twisted rope trim.
Q: How big are they and how will they feel on the ear? A: The earrings are listed at approximately 3 cm (height) x 3 cm (width) x 1.5 cm (depth). At around 3 cm they read as a refined statement without being oversized on most lobes. If you’d like the precise gram weight or a photo on ear for scale, let us know and we’ll provide it.
Q: How do they fasten and can I make clip‑ons more comfortable? A: They have a hinged clip‑on fastening suitable for non‑pierced ears. For extra comfort, use clear silicone pads/cushions on the clip and ensure the clip tension feels snug but not painful. If needed, a jeweller can fine‑tune the clip tension—avoid forcefully bending the mechanism yourself.
Q: Are they suitable for sensitive ears? Are they nickel‑free? A: Fashion jewellery may contain nickel. If you have sensitivities, limit wear time at first, use silicone pads or a clear barrier product on contact points, keep earlobes dry, and discontinue use if irritation occurs. Contact us if you’d like tailored advice.
Q: Will clip‑ons stay secure during wear? A: Yes, when properly adjusted. Make sure the clip closes fully, keep skin free of lotions and oils, and consider silicone comfort pads or clip guards for extra grip. If a clip feels loose, a jeweller can tighten it.
Q: What does the Céline “Macadam” logo refer to? A: Macadam is Céline’s historic monogram motif closely linked to the House’s Triomphe emblem—an intertwined design inspired by the chain surrounding Paris’s Arc de Triomphe. It appears across vintage accessories and jewellery and is iconic to the brand’s heritage.
Q: What hallmarks or stamps should I expect on vintage Céline earrings? A: Vintage Céline pieces typically bear the CELINE signature (sometimes “CELINE PARIS”) and often a country of origin stamp such as “Made in Italy”; some seasons include date or collection codes. Placement is usually on the reverse or near the clip. Please review our close‑up photos for the specific stamps on this pair.
Q: How should I care for the gold‑tone plating? A: Keep them dry and away from perfume, hairspray, lotions and hand sanitiser. After wear, gently wipe with a soft, dry microfibre cloth. Do not soak, use ultrasonic cleaners or chemical dips. Store individually in a pouch or box to minimise friction and preserve the finish.
Q: Can they be repaired, replated or converted to pierced? A: A competent jeweller can replace worn clip pads, adjust clip tension and perform light replating if desired. Conversion to a post is sometimes possible, but may affect originality and resale value. We don’t offer in‑house modifications; contact us for reputable specialists.
Q: What condition should I expect, what is included, and can I return them? A: This pair is in Very Good Condition with light signs of careful wear possible unless noted otherwise. This listing includes 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.
