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 earrings made of? A: Céline Triomphe earrings are typically crafted in brass with a gold‑tone finish. This vintage pair is yellow gold‑tone and designed for pierced ears with a post back closure. As with many vintage styles, exact composition and stamping can vary by production batch and era.
Q: Are they hypoallergenic or nickel‑free? A: Many modern Triomphe earrings are described by Céline as brass with a gold finish and nickel‑free, but individual sensitivity varies and “hypoallergenic” is not a guarantee. If you have known metal allergies, consider shorter wear times or metals like solid gold or titanium, and discontinue use if irritation occurs.
Q: Will the gold finish tarnish or fade over time? A: Gold‑finished brass can show surface wear with use, especially from friction, moisture, perfume and lotions. To maximise longevity, put them on last and take them off first, avoid contact with water, fragrance, oils and cleaning agents, wipe with a soft lint‑free cloth after wear, and store separately in a pouch to minimise rubbing.
Q: Can I shower, swim, or exercise in them? A: This is not recommended. Water, sweat, steam and chemicals can accelerate wear to plated finishes. Remove the earrings before bathing, swimming, gym sessions or applying hair and skincare products.
Q: How big are they and how do they feel on the ear? A: Approximate measurements are 2.5 × 2.5 × 0.5 cm. They offer a classic medium hoop profile. Weight is not specified for this pair; if you prefer extra support, consider using large comfort disc backs.
Q: What does Very Good Condition mean here? A: This pair is graded Very Good, with shiny surfaces and light scratches consistent with careful vintage wear. Minor signs of age or gentle plating rubs may be visible on close inspection; please review the photos for details.
Q: What is included with my order? A: Everything included is listed in the product information on this page. For this pair, no additional items are included. If you would like clarification about earring backs or packaging, please contact us before purchase.
Q: How should I clean and care for them? A: After each wear, gently wipe with a soft, dry cloth. For deeper refresh, avoid abrasive polishes and harsh chemicals; never soak plated brass. Store each earring separately in a soft pouch and keep away from humidity and direct heat or sunlight.
Q: What does the Triomphe emblem represent? A: The Triomphe motif is a historic Céline house symbol, inspired by the chain links surrounding Paris’s Arc de Triomphe and introduced in the early 1970s. It remains a signature across the brand’s jewellery today.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate Céline jewellery? A: Every piece is rigorously vetted by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, construction, stamping and hallmarking, plus cross‑references to known period details. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can share additional photos or information on request.
