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 Céline Triomphe Dangling 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 solid gold and are the pearls real? A: These are Céline costume jewellery earrings crafted in gold‑tone metal with faux pearl accents. They are not solid gold and the pearls are imitation. Please review the close‑up photos and features, and contact us if you’d like us to confirm any aspect of the composition for this specific pair.
Q: What are the measurements and how do they sit when worn? A: They are listed at approximately 6 cm (height) x 2.1 cm (width) x 1.5 cm (depth). With a 6 cm drop they have a chic, statement sway on the ear. If you’d like the precise gram weight or a photo on model for scale, just ask and we’ll provide it.
Q: How do the clip‑ons fasten and will they stay on securely? A: They feature a hinged clip‑on fastening. For a secure and comfortable fit, position the clip so it sits flat on the earlobe, ensure the hinge feels firm, and consider adding soft silicone clip pads for extra grip and cushioning. Avoid high‑impact activities while wearing and check the clips are fully closed before use.
Q: Are clip‑ons comfortable? What if they pinch? A: Comfort varies by ear shape and clip tension. Tips: add silicone/foam pads to cushion pressure, take brief breaks during extended wear, and avoid wearing them to sleep. A competent jeweller can usually fine‑tune clip tension for better comfort. If discomfort persists, discontinue wear and contact us for guidance.
Q: Are they suitable for sensitive skin? Are they nickel‑free? A: Fashion jewellery alloys and platings may contain nickel. If you have sensitivities, consider using clear barrier products on contact points or clip pads to minimise metal‑to‑skin contact, keep the area dry, and discontinue use if irritation occurs. We’re happy to advise further if needed.
Q: What hallmarks or stamps should I expect on vintage Céline earrings? A: Vintage Céline earrings typically bear a CELINE signature and may include a country of origin stamp (often France or Italy). Placement varies (e.g., on the reverse or the clip). Please refer to our listing photos to view any marks present on this pair.
Q: How should I care for the gold‑tone finish and faux pearls? A: Keep them dry and away from perfume, hairspray, lotions and hand sanitiser. After wear, gently wipe with a soft, dry microfibre cloth. Do not soak, use ultrasonic cleaners or chemical dips, and avoid abrasive polishing. Store individually in a pouch or box to prevent scratches and protect the faux pearls and plating.
Q: Can they be repaired, replated, or converted for pierced ears? A: A jeweller can often adjust clip tension, replace worn clip cushions, and perform gentle replating if needed. Some jewellers can convert clip‑ons to posts; however, any modification alters originality and may affect value. We don’t offer in‑house alterations but can suggest reputable specialists on request.
Q: What condition should I expect, what is included, and can I return them? A: They are in Very Good Condition with light signs of careful wear possible unless noted otherwise. This listing includes a box; only accessories specifically shown or listed are included. 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.
