* 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 Tiffany & Co. T Smile Mini 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 or plated? A: They are crafted in solid 18K (750) yellow gold. There is no plating and no gemstones on this mini model. Please review the photos and features; contact us if you’d like us to confirm any composition details for this exact pair.
Q: Are they for pierced ears and what type of closure do they use? A: Yes—these are for pierced ears and secure with a post and butterfly (friction) backs. Please see the close‑up photos for the exact backs on this pair, or message us if you’d like confirmation.
Q: What size are they? Will the mini size look subtle on the ear? A: The mini model is designed to be delicate and sits neatly along the lobe. Our listing notes an approximate width of 1.3 cm. If you’d like the precise height, depth or gram weight for comfort reference, just ask and we’ll measure them for you.
Q: What hallmarks or stamps should I expect on Tiffany earrings? A: Tiffany & Co. fine jewellery typically bears the “Tiffany & Co.” signature and “750” (for 18K gold), sometimes with a country of origin. Stamps are usually on the earring post or reverse and sometimes on the backs. Our photos show any hallmarks present on this pair.
Q: Are they suitable for sensitive ears? Is there any nickel? A: 18K yellow gold is generally alloyed with gold, silver and copper and is typically nickel‑free. Those with sensitivities should still monitor comfort and discontinue wear if irritation occurs; we’re happy to advise further.
Q: Can I wear them every day, in the shower, or while sleeping? A: They’re a great everyday size, but we recommend removing fine jewellery before showering, swimming, exercising or sleeping to minimise wear and keep the finish looking its best.
Q: How should I care for 18K yellow gold earrings? A: Wipe after wear with a soft, dry microfibre cloth. For an occasional clean, use lukewarm water with a drop of mild soap, a very soft brush, rinse well and dry thoroughly. Avoid harsh chemicals, ultrasonic cleaners and abrasive polishing cloths. Store individually in a pouch/box to prevent scratches.
Q: Can they be polished, repaired, or can I replace a lost back? A: A reputable jeweller can perform light polishing and supply quality 18K replacement butterfly backs if needed. Tiffany boutiques may offer servicing at their discretion. Any modification can affect originality and resale value—feel free to ask us for non‑invasive options.
Q: What condition should I expect, what’s included, and can I return them? A: They are in Like New Condition. This listing includes a box; only accessories specifically shown or listed are included. Earrings are eligible for return under our standard policy provided they are unworn, any hygiene seals (if applied) remain intact, and they are returned in the same condition. Please see our Returns page for full details.
