Product Description
An elegant finishing touch for cocktail parties, weddings or a chic dinner date, these vintage Chanel Coco Mark clip-on earrings in gold-tone bring polished Parisian flair to any look—effortless to wear from day to night.
Q: How big are they and how do they sit on the ear? A: Each earring measures approximately 2.7 × 2.7 cm with a depth of about 2 cm. The round, ribbed design with Coco Mark sits as a statement on the earlobe with a secure clip‑on hold.
Q: Can I adjust the clip tension or change the pads? A: Many clip‑on mechanisms allow minor tension adjustments; a professional jeweller can fine‑tune the fit. Adhesive silicone or leather pads are widely available and can be replaced to improve comfort and grip.
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.

Delivery & Returns
Q: Are these suitable for non‑pierced ears? A: Yes. They feature classic clip‑on fastenings, so they’re designed for non‑pierced ears and can also be worn by those with pierced ears. For extra comfort, you can add soft silicone or foam pads to the clips.
Q: How big are they and how do they sit on the ear? A: Each earring measures approximately 2.7 × 2.7 cm with a depth of about 2 cm. The round, ribbed design with Coco Mark sits as a statement on the earlobe with a secure clip‑on hold.
Q: Do clip‑on earrings hurt or feel heavy? A: Comfort varies by wearer and earlobe shape. Vintage Chanel clip‑ons can feel weighty compared with minimalist studs due to their solid construction, so we recommend wearing them for shorter periods at first and adding comfort pads if needed.
Q: Can I adjust the clip tension or change the pads? A: Many clip‑on mechanisms allow minor tension adjustments; a professional jeweller can fine‑tune the fit. Adhesive silicone or leather pads are widely available and can be replaced to improve comfort and grip.
Q: Can these be converted to pierced earrings? A: Some jewellers can convert clip‑ons to posts, but any alteration is at the owner’s discretion and may affect collectability and resale value. A Retro Tale does not provide conversion services for vintage pieces.
Q: What are Chanel costume earrings typically made of? A: Most Chanel costume earrings are crafted from base metals with gold‑tone plating and may include glass, resin or faux pearls depending on the design. Because metal content varies by era, we cannot guarantee they are nickel‑free.
Q: How should I care for these gold‑tone vintage earrings? A: Avoid moisture, perfume, hairspray and lotions; remove before bathing. After wear, wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth and store separately in a breathable pouch. Do not soak, polish abrasively or use ultrasonic cleaners, which can damage plating and stones.
Q: How can vintage Chanel earrings be dated or authenticated? A: Many pieces carry an oval or round stamp on the back reading CHANEL and the country of origin; later examples may include seasonal codes. Stamps have evolved over the decades, so variations are normal. Every item at A Retro Tale is thoroughly authenticated by our experts; additional photos can be provided on request.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This pair is sold without accessories as listed. If a box, dust bag or extra pads are not mentioned under Accessories, they are not included.
