Christian Dior Clair D Lune Rhinestone Earrings

Q: What are these earrings made from?
A: They are crafted in gold‑finish metal and set with clear rhinestones/crystals from Dior’s Clair D Lune line. Depending on the production run, genuine pieces may be marked with the country of manufacture (for example Italy, Germany or Portugal).

Q: Are they suitable for pierced ears?
A: Yes. This pair has a post‑back fastening designed for pierced ears. Clip‑on versions exist in the Clair D Lune family, but this specific pair is not clip‑on. We do not offer alterations or conversions.

Q: How big are they and how do they sit on the ear?
A: The approximate measurements are 2.5 × 1.5 × 0.5 cm. The oval hoop silhouette with a central bar sits close to the lobe for an elegant day‑to‑evening look. Weight is not provided; please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact sizing.

Q: Will the gold finish tarnish or the stones lose their sparkle?
A: Plated fashion jewellery can show wear or tarnish with exposure to moisture, perfume, lotions, hairspray and sweat. Rhinestones/crystals can also dull if residue builds up. Apply cosmetics first, let them dry, then put your earrings on; wipe with a soft dry cloth after wear and store them in their pouch to help preserve the finish and brilliance.

Q: How should I clean rhinestone/crystal jewellery safely?
A: Do not soak or submerge and avoid ultrasonic cleaners. Use a soft, dry brush or microfibre cloth to lift dust. If needed, lightly dampen a cloth to wipe the metal only, keeping moisture away from the backs of stones, then dry thoroughly before storing.

Q: I have sensitive ears or a nickel allergy—are these suitable?
A: Dior does not advertise its fashion jewellery as nickel‑free. If you have metal sensitivities, consider using hypoallergenic barrier products or earring sleeves and try short wear times first. Discontinue use if irritation occurs and consult a dermatologist for personalised advice.

Q: What is included with this item?
A: Everything included is listed under the product information on this page. For this listing, a dust bag is included. If a Dior box or receipt is not listed there, it is not included—feel free to contact us for clarification.

Q: How do you authenticate Dior jewellery, and what should I look for?
A: Every piece at A Retro Tale is carefully vetted by our specialists. Typical indicators of authentic Dior jewellery include crisp Dior hallmarks, high‑quality plating and even, secure stone settings. Many authentic pieces also carry a country‑of‑origin stamp. Dior costume jewellery generally does not use serial numbers. We are happy to share additional photos or details on request.

Q: Can Dior or a jeweller replace a missing stone or refresh the plating?
A: Dior boutiques can advise on repair options subject to assessment and availability. Skilled independent jewellers can also re‑set rhinestones or tighten settings, and in some cases re‑plate metal finishes. Contact us if you would like recommendations.
