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 for pierced ears? A: They are clip-on earrings designed to be worn without pierced ears. Many customers with pierced ears also enjoy clip-ons for comfort and versatility.
Q: Will clip-on earrings be comfortable for all-day wear? A: Comfort varies by ear shape and clip tension. Start with shorter wear, use soft comfort pads on the back, and ensure the clip is neither too tight nor too loose. A professional jeweller can fine-tune clip tension if needed; avoid forcing the mechanism yourself.
Q: What do the CC logo and number 5 motifs signify? A: The interlocking CC is Chanel’s signature. The number 5 is an emblem of the House, famously tied to Gabrielle Chanel’s favourite number and the iconic No.5 fragrance, making these motifs especially collectible.
Q: How should I care for these vintage Chanel earrings? A: Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth after wear. Keep away from water, perfume, hairspray, and lotions; apply these before putting the earrings on. Store dry, out of direct light, ideally in the included box, with each piece kept separate to avoid scratches.
Q: What are they made of? A: Iridescent resin cubes set on silver-tone hardware with clip-on backs, featuring CC logos and number 5 motifs.
Q: Are they nickel-free? A: Vintage costume jewellery can contain nickel. If you are sensitive, consider using protective ear cushions or barriers and limit initial wear time. Discontinue use if irritation occurs.
Q: Can clip-ons be converted to pierced posts? A: Some jewellers offer conversions, but altering vintage Chanel can affect structure and future value. We generally recommend enjoying them as original clip-ons; any modification would be at the owner’s discretion.
Q: Do these have Chanel hallmarks? A: Most vintage Chanel earrings carry a signature plaque or stamp on the reverse that varies by era (for example, seasonal codes on later pieces). Hallmarks are one factor among many—construction, materials and finish are also assessed.
Q: What are the measurements and how do they sit on the ear? A: Approx. 4 × 2.5 × 2.5 cm. The scale offers a noticeable, elegant presence near the lobe without excessive length. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact sizing.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This pair comes with a box. Everything included is listed under the product information section; if an item is not listed there, it is not included.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate Chanel jewellery? A: Every piece is rigorously vetted by our in-house experts using multi-point checks of materials, construction, hardware, stamps and overall workmanship. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can share additional details on request.
