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. They feature secure clip-on closures designed for comfortable wear without piercings. If you are new to clip-ons, start with shorter wear times and consider silicone comfort pads for extra cushioning and grip.
Q: Which stone is used in the 1998 Heritage design? A: The 1998 Georg Jensen Heritage ear clips are commonly set with lapis lazuli, a deep blue, opaque gemstone. Natural variations in shade and flecking are normal and part of the stone’s character.
Q: What hallmarks should I expect on authentic Georg Jensen earrings? A: Typical marks include the Georg Jensen oval maker’s stamp, 925S (sterling silver), and Denmark. Heritage designs often also bear the year on the reverse. Minor variations can occur with production era and workshop.
Q: How big are these and how do they sit on the ear? A: Each earring measures approximately 1.8 cm × 1.8 cm with a depth of about 1.0 cm. The floral motif covers most earlobes and sits close to the ear for a neat, balanced profile.
Q: Will clip-ons feel tight? How can I improve comfort? A: A little pressure is normal. You can gently fine‑tune the clip tension or ask a jeweller to adjust it. Adding silicone or foam clip-on pads helps reduce pinching and improves stability. Take short breaks during very long wear.
Q: How should I clean sterling silver set with a lapis stone? A: Polish the silver gently with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid chemical dips and ultrasonic cleaners; lapis is a porous stone and can be damaged by moisture and harsh solutions. If needed, wipe the stone lightly with a barely damp cloth and dry immediately.
Q: Why does sterling silver tarnish, and how do I minimise it? A: Tarnish is a natural reaction between silver and sulphur in the air. Wear your jewellery regularly, store it in an airtight pouch with anti‑tarnish strips, and keep it away from perfumes, hairspray, lotions, and chlorinated water.
Q: Are these suitable for sensitive ears or nickel allergies? A: Sterling silver is 92.5% pure silver alloyed mainly with other metals (commonly copper). High‑quality sterling is generally nickel‑free, but trace nickel can exist in some alloys. If you have a known nickel allergy, test wear briefly or use barrier pads and consult a professional if needed.
Q: Can clip-on earrings be converted to pierced posts? A: A skilled jeweller can sometimes convert clip-ons, but this permanently alters the piece and may affect collector value. If comfort is your goal, consider clip-on comfort pads or professional tension adjustment instead.
Q: What is included with this pair, and how is authenticity ensured? A: This pair comes with a box, as listed under Accessories. Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully authenticated by our in‑house specialists; additional photos or details are available on request.
