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: Is this earring designed for pierced ears? A: No, this piece has a clip-on fastening, so it is designed to be worn without pierced ears. If you do have pierced ears, you can still wear clip-ons as long as the fit feels comfortable.
Q: What size is this earring? A: It measures approximately 5 cm in height, 2.5 cm in width and 0.5 cm in depth. The elongated drop and Medusa motif give it a bold, statement look rather than a subtle everyday scale.
Q: What materials and finish does it have? A: According to the product information, it features silver-tone metal, black enamel detailing and the signature Medusa head motif. The exact underlying metal composition is not specified on this listing.
Q: Are clip-on earrings comfortable to wear? A: Clip-on earrings are designed to sit securely on the earlobe, so a gentle grip is normal. Comfort can vary from person to person, especially with vintage statement styles. If you are new to clip-ons, it is often best to wear them for shorter periods first and add soft clip cushions if desired.
Q: Can clip-on earrings be worn all day? A: Many people wear clip-ons comfortably for several hours, but tolerance depends on ear sensitivity and how snug the clip feels. With a vintage piece like this, shorter wear at first is a sensible way to test the fit before extended use.
Q: Is this suitable for sensitive ears? A: Versace states that its current jewellery is lead- and nickel-free and made from hypoallergenic materials, but this is a vintage item and the exact composition for this specific piece is not listed here. If you have very sensitive skin, we recommend cautious wear and removing it immediately if any irritation occurs.
Q: What condition is the earring in? A: This is a vintage piece, and the hardware condition is noted as shiny with light scratches. That suggests gentle signs of previous wear consistent with age. For the most accurate impression, it is always worth reviewing the product images closely as well.
Q: Does it come with a box or authenticity card? A: No accompanying items are listed for this piece. If a box, pouch or card is not mentioned in the product information, it should be assumed not to be included.
Q: How should I care for this earring? A: To help preserve the silver-tone finish and enamel detailing, wipe it gently with a soft dry cloth after wear and keep it away from perfume, hairspray, water and harsh cleaning products. Store it separately in a soft pouch or jewellery box to help minimise scratches.
Q: How is vintage Versace jewellery authenticated? A: A Retro Tale states that every item listed for sale is authenticated by its in-house experts and supported by a two-step screening process with specialist suppliers. This is intended to give added reassurance when buying vintage designer jewellery.
