Delivery & Returns
Q: What does the matelassé design refer to? A: Matelassé refers to a quilted, raised look. On this pair, it gives the gold-tone metal a classic Chanel-inspired textured finish that feels both elegant and recognisable.
Q: Are these earrings suitable for non-pierced ears? A: Yes. They feature a clip-on closure, so they are designed to be worn without pierced ears. They can also be worn by someone with pierced ears if they prefer clip-ons.
Q: How large are these earrings? A: These are statement earrings, measuring approximately 6.5 cm in height, 5 cm in width, and 0.8 cm in depth. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for the exact dimensions.
Q: Will clip-on earrings feel comfortable to wear? A: Comfort can vary from person to person, but clip-on earrings are a popular choice for those who want the look of earrings without piercings. As this is a larger vintage statement pair, they may feel more noticeable than small everyday styles, so shorter first wears can be a good idea if you are new to clip-ons.
Q: What material and finish do these earrings have? A: This pair is made in gold-tone metal with a matelassé motif. They offer the bold, polished look often associated with vintage Chanel costume jewellery.
Q: What condition are these earrings in? A: They are listed in Very Good Condition. The hardware remains shiny and shows light scratches, which is consistent with careful vintage use.
Q: How should I care for vintage Chanel earrings? A: To help preserve the finish, put them on after makeup and fragrance, avoid water and humidity where possible, and gently wipe them with a soft dry cloth after wear. Store them separately in their box or another soft protective pouch to help minimise scratches.
Q: Can I clean them with water or jewellery cleaner? A: It is best to avoid water, soap, detergent, and chemical jewellery cleaners on vintage costume jewellery. A soft dry cloth is the safest option for routine care.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This item comes with a box, as listed in the product information. If you would like confirmation of anything included, feel free to contact us before purchasing.
Q: How do you authenticate vintage Chanel jewellery? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully vetted by in-house experts. Authentication is based on a combination of craftsmanship, materials, hardware, stamps, and overall construction, so you can shop with confidence.
