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 Coco Mark Dangling 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: Chanel costume jewellery earrings are typically crafted from plated base metal (gold‑tone finish), sometimes with glass or resin accents. They are not solid gold unless explicitly stated. This pair is described as yellow gold‑tone metal with a dangling interlocking CC motif.
Q: What are the measurements and how will they look when worn? A: Listed at approximately 4 cm (height) x 2.7 cm (width) x 1 cm (depth). The 4 cm drop gives a graceful sway and a statement look without being overly large. If you’d like the precise gram weight or an on‑ear photo for scale, message us and we’ll provide it.
Q: How do they fasten and who are clip‑ons suitable for? A: They feature a hinged clip‑on back designed for non‑pierced ears, though many with pierced ears also enjoy clip‑ons. Always ensure the clip is seated evenly on the lobe before wear.
Q: Are clip‑ons comfortable? Any tips to reduce pinching or slipping? A: Comfort varies by ear shape and clip tension. For extra comfort and grip, add thin silicone cushion pads to the clips, take short breaks during long wear, and avoid tugging. A jeweller can often fine‑tune clip tension; please ask us for recommendations.
Q: What hallmarks or stamps should I expect on vintage Chanel earrings? A: Most vintage Chanel earrings carry an oval plaque stamped CHANEL, often with “Made in France/Italy” and a season/date code around the CC logo. Placement and format vary by era, and some pieces may be unsigned. Our listing photos show any stamps present on this pair.
Q: Can these clip‑ons be converted to pierced posts? A: Many clip‑on styles can be converted by a competent jeweller (adding posts or lever‑backs), but modifications may affect originality and resale value. We don’t perform in‑house alterations; contact us if you’d like referrals.
Q: Are they nickel‑free and suitable for sensitive ears? A: Vintage/fashion jewellery alloys can contain nickel. If you have sensitivities, use silicone pads as a barrier, keep the area dry, and discontinue wear if irritation occurs. We’re happy to advise further.
Q: How should I care for the gold‑tone plating? A: Keep earrings dry and away from perfume, lotions, hairspray and hand sanitiser. Apply cosmetics/fragrance before putting them on. After wear, wipe with a soft, dry microfibre cloth and store individually in a pouch/box away from humidity and direct light. Do not soak, use chemical dips or ultrasonic cleaners.
Q: Can I wear them in the shower, swimming or to sleep? A: We recommend removing costume jewellery before showering, swimming, exercising or sleeping to prevent plating wear and undue stress on clips and components.
Q: What condition should I expect, what is included, and can I return them? A: Please refer to our listing for the exact condition notes; as vintage, light signs of wear may be present. This item includes a box as stated. Returns are accepted under our standard policy—please see our Returns page for eligibility, timeframes and conditions, and return the item in the same condition received.
