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 pierced ears? A: Yes. This vintage pair features a post-back closure designed for pierced ears. If you need replacements, most standard friction or comfort backs from a jeweller will fit securely.
Q: What are Chanel costume earrings like these typically made from? A: Chanel costume jewellery usually features plated base metals in gold- or silver-tone with glass rhinestones and imitation pearls, rather than solid precious metals. This pair presents silver-tone metal, rhinestones, and faux pearls, as noted in our product information.
Q: How should I care for the rhinestones and faux pearls? A: Put jewellery on after perfume and make-up, avoid water, lotions and household chemicals, and wipe with a soft dry cloth after wear. Do not soak or use alcohol-based cleaners on rhinestones or faux pearls; instead, dust gently with a soft, dry brush or cotton bud to protect the foil backing and finishes.
Q: Can I shower, swim or exercise in these? A: No. Moisture, heat and impact can dull the plating and weaken settings. Remove the earrings before showering, swimming or workouts to preserve their condition.
Q: What if a rhinestone or pearl becomes loose or lost? A: A Chanel boutique can advise on available aftercare and may assess the piece for repair; availability can vary for costume jewellery and by location. Specialist costume-jewellery restorers can also replace stones or resecure settings. We are happy to guide you to appropriate options.
Q: Will these irritate sensitive ears? A: Some costume jewellery can contain nickel beneath the plating. If you have sensitive skin, consider hypoallergenic sleeves or backs and limit wear time. Discontinue use if irritation occurs and seek professional advice.
Q: How can I verify age and authenticity of vintage Chanel earrings? A: Many vintage Chanel earrings have an oval signature plaque on the back marked CHANEL and Made in France. From 1993 onwards, plaques typically include season and year codes. Stamps alone are not conclusive—overall construction, materials and finish must be evaluated. Every item at A Retro Tale is authenticated by our specialists; additional photos can be provided on request.
Q: What is included with this listing? A: Everything included is listed in the product information. If a branded box, dust pouch or spare backs are not mentioned there, they are not included.
Q: How should I store them? A: Store each earring separately in a soft pouch, away from humidity, direct sunlight and heat. Avoid contact with other pieces to prevent scratches or finish wear.
Q: Are they heavy to wear? A: Chanel designs are generally made for comfortable wear, but sensitivity varies by person. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for scale; comfort disc backs can help distribute weight if you have delicate lobes.
