Delivery & Returns
Q: Is this Maison Margiela Single Earring 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: Is it sold as a single earring or as a pair? A: It is sold as a single earring. If you’d like help sourcing a complementary piece to wear as a pair or mismatched set, please contact us and we’ll advise if we can assist.
Q: What materials is it made from? Is it solid gold and is the stone real amber? A: Maison Margiela fashion jewellery typically features gold‑tone plated base metal (often brass) with glass or resin stones. This piece is described as gold‑tone with an amber‑coloured faceted stone; it is not solid gold and the stone is not natural amber unless explicitly stated. If you’d like us to confirm composition details for this item, just ask.
Q: Is it for pierced ears or clip‑on, and how does it fasten? A: This earring is for pierced ears and uses a post‑back fastening (commonly with a butterfly back). Please refer to the close‑up photos on this page or contact us for confirmation.
Q: What size and weight is it? Will it feel heavy? A: Measurements and gram weight are not listed in the description. If you’d like precise dimensions and an approximate weight for comfort reference, message us and we’ll measure it. Statement single earrings vary in perceived weight by wearer; larger backs or comfort discs can improve stability.
Q: What hallmarks or stamps should I expect on Maison Margiela jewellery? A: Hallmarks vary by season and line; many pieces are signed “Maison Margiela”, “MM”, or carry collection indicators. Country of origin is noted as France for this piece. Our listing photos show any stamps present—please review them or contact us for details.
Q: Is it suitable for sensitive ears? Is it nickel‑free? A: Fashion jewellery alloys may contain nickel. If you have sensitivities, consider hypoallergenic barrier discs or applying a clear barrier product to contact points, and discontinue use if irritation occurs. We’re happy to share available composition details on request.
Q: How should I care for the gold‑tone finish and faceted stone? A: Keep it dry and away from perfume, lotions, hairspray and hand sanitiser. After wear, gently wipe with a soft, dry microfibre cloth; use a dry cotton bud to remove dust around the setting. Do not soak, use ultrasonic cleaners or chemical dips. Store individually in a pouch/box to prevent scratches and preserve colour and lustre.
Q: Can it be repaired, replated, or can the earring back be replaced? A: A jeweller can usually replace butterfly backs, service a slightly bent post, and re‑secure stones if needed. Replating may be possible but can affect originality and resale value. We don’t perform modifications in‑house; contact us for recommendations to reputable specialists.
Q: What condition should I expect, what is included, and can I return it? A: Overall condition is Very Good with light traces of use; hardware is shiny with light scratches (see photos). Delivered with box unless otherwise noted. Earrings are eligible for return under our standard policy provided they are unworn, any hygiene seals (if applied) remain intact, and the item is returned in the same condition received. Please see our Returns page for full details.
