Perfect for cocktail hours and evening receptions, Céline’s gold‑tone Knot Hoop Earrings lend refined sparkle to a slip dress or tailored suit. Their sculptural knot detail adds understated glamour for wedding‑guest attire, festive dinners and chic weekend plans.
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: What are these made of and are they nickel free? A: Celine fashion jewellery is typically crafted in brass with a gold‑tone finish, and current collections note nickel‑free construction. This pre‑owned pair features gold‑tone hardware and is for pierced ears. As compositions can vary by production year, please contact us if you have severe metal sensitivities and would like us to double‑check details for you.
Q: How big are the earrings and how do they sit on the ear? A: Please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact sizing. The dimensions listed are approximately height 4.7 cm, width 0.2 cm and depth 5 cm, measured at the widest points. The profile is a classic hoop with a front knot detail that sits just below the earlobe on most wearers.
Q: Are they heavy to wear all day? A: Hoop earrings of this size are generally comfortable for most wearers, though sensitivity varies. If you have delicate lobes, we recommend trying on similar‑sized hoops you own for comparison, and limiting wear time at first. As a rough guide, many consider earrings over about 7–8 g per ear to feel heavy; we can provide a quick weight check on request.
Q: Will the gold‑tone finish tarnish or fade? A: With regular wear, plated finishes can gradually dull or wear at high‑friction points. To prolong the finish, avoid contact with water, perfumes, lotions, sunscreen and household chemicals; let products dry before putting earrings on; and wipe with a soft, dry cloth after wear.
Q: Can I shower, swim or exercise in them? A: We recommend removing gold‑finished or plated brass jewellery before showering, swimming (especially in chlorine or salt water) and exercising. Moisture, heat, soaps and sweat can accelerate wear to the finish over time.
Q: How should I clean and store them? A: Gently wipe with a soft, lint‑free cloth only. Avoid abrasive polishing cloths and liquid cleaners, which can strip plating. Store individually in a pouch or the box to prevent scratches and reduce friction, and keep them away from humidity and direct sunlight.
Q: Can they be replated or repaired in future? A: Many professional jewellers offer re‑plating and cosmetic touch‑ups for brass pieces with a gold finish. If you are considering this in future, consult a qualified jeweller, as work on plated brass may require re‑finishing after any repair. Celine Client Service can also advise on care options for their jewellery.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This pair comes with a box, as listed under product information. If an item is not listed there, it is not included—feel free to contact us for clarification.
Q: Where were they made? A: Celine jewellery is commonly produced in Italy, and this pair is listed with Italy as the country of origin on our product information.
Q: What is your return policy for earrings? A: For hygiene reasons, earrings can be returned only if the original safety seal is intact and still attached. Our general return window is 14 days from receipt; please see our Delivery & Returns information or contact Customer Support for assistance.
Q: How do you authenticate this item? A: Every piece at A Retro Tale undergoes a rigorous, multi‑point authentication by our in‑house experts, including materials, construction, stamps and signatures. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can provide additional photos or details on request.
