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 Flower 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: These are Chanel costume jewellery earrings crafted with gold‑tone plated metal and multicolour enamel detailing, finished with a central CC logo. They are not solid gold. Vintage Chanel compositions vary by season; please review our close‑up photos and contact us if you’d like us to confirm any specifics for this pair.
Q: How big are they and how do they feel on the ear? A: Approximately 4 cm (height) × 4 cm (width) × 1 cm (depth). They have a statement presence without being overly heavy for most wearers. If you’d like the exact gram weight or a photo on ear for scale, message us and we’ll provide it.
Q: How secure are the clips and can the tension be adjusted? A: They feature traditional clip‑on backs. For most ears they’re secure; you can fine‑tune comfort by gently adjusting clip tension or by asking a jeweller to do so. Adding silicone/foam comfort pads can distribute pressure and improve grip. Avoid overtightening to prevent stress on the mechanism; we’re happy to advise on pads or adjustments.
Q: Are they suitable for sensitive ears? Are they nickel‑free? A: Fashion jewellery may include base‑metal alloys that can contain nickel. If you have sensitivities, consider using clear barrier products or silicone pads on the clips to reduce direct metal contact, and discontinue wear if irritation occurs. Contact us for tailored advice.
Q: What hallmarks or stamps should I expect on vintage Chanel earrings? A: Most vintage Chanel earrings have an oval or round plaque on the reverse stamped CHANEL, often with “Made in France/Italy” and, on many pieces, a season/year code (e.g., 93 P for Spring 1993). Placement and format vary by era. Our listing photos show any stamps present on this pair.
Q: How should I care for the gold‑tone plating and enamel? A: Keep them dry and away from perfume, lotions, hairspray and hand sanitiser. After wear, wipe gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth; clean around enamel edges with a dry cotton bud. Do not soak, use ultrasonic cleaners or chemical dips. Store individually in a pouch/box, away from humidity and direct sunlight; enamel is glass‑like and can chip if knocked.
Q: Can I wear them in the shower, swimming or to sleep? A: We recommend removing enamel and plated jewellery before showering, swimming, exercising or sleeping. Moisture, sweat and chemicals can accelerate plating wear and dull enamel, and sleeping can stress clips and fittings.
Q: Can clip‑on earrings be converted to pierced posts? A: Many clip‑ons can be converted by a competent jeweller, though some designs aren’t suitable. Conversion and replating/repairs may affect originality and resale value. We don’t offer in‑house modifications but can recommend reputable specialists on request.
Q: What condition should I expect, what is included, and can I return them? A: These earrings are in Very Good Condition with light signs of careful wear possible. This listing includes a box. Returns are accepted under our standard policy—please see our Returns page for eligibility, timeframes and conditions, and ensure the item is returned in the same condition received.
