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 Tiffany & Co. HardWear Extra Large Link Sterling Silver 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 and are they suitable for sensitive ears? A: They are crafted in solid sterling silver (925) from Tiffany’s HardWear collection, made in Italy. Sterling silver is typically alloyed with copper and is generally nickel‑free, but sensitivities vary. If you have known metal allergies, monitor comfort and discontinue wear if irritation occurs—we’re happy to advise further.
Q: How big are they and how will they look when worn? A: The earrings are listed at approximately 5.0 cm (height) x 1.5 cm (width) x 0.3 cm (depth). On the ear they read as a bold, elongated link with statement presence. If you’d like the exact gram weight or a photo on ear for scale, message us and we’ll provide it.
Q: How do they fasten and are they secure? A: They feature a hinged post closure for pierced ears. Insert the post through the lobe and press until you feel/hear a click. Ensure the hinge is fully engaged before wear. If your piercings are soft or you prefer extra support, lobe‑support patches can help distribute weight.
Q: Are the Extra Large HardWear link earrings heavy? Are they comfortable for all‑day wear? A: The Extra Large size has a substantial look and some wearers find larger HardWear sizes weighty for extended wear. Comfort depends on personal tolerance and lobe anatomy. For long days, consider alternating with lighter pieces, ensure the closure is snug, and use support patches if needed.
Q: Will sterling silver tarnish? How should I clean and care for them? A: Sterling silver can naturally tarnish with exposure to air, humidity and products containing sulphur. After wear, wipe with a soft, dry microfibre cloth. For a deeper clean, use a non‑abrasive silver polishing cloth or a dedicated sterling‑silver cleaner, then rinse with lukewarm water, blot dry and buff gently. Avoid chemical dips on mechanisms, ultrasonic cleaners, and contact with perfume, lotions, hairspray or hand sanitiser. Store each earring separately in a pouch/box away from humidity.
Q: Can I wear them in the shower, swimming, at the gym or to sleep? A: We recommend removing them before showering, swimming, exercising or sleeping. Moisture and chemicals accelerate tarnish and sleeping in earrings can stress posts/hinges and earlobes.
Q: What hallmarks should I expect on Tiffany sterling‑silver earrings? A: Expect TIFFANY & CO. maker’s marks and a fineness stamp such as “925” (sometimes “AG925”), and often a country of origin stamp (e.g., “Italy”). Placement varies by model (post, link or back). Our listing photos show any stamps present on this pair.
Q: Can Tiffany replace a single lost earring or supply replacement backs? A: Tiffany boutiques may be able to supply replacement earring backs and can sometimes replace a single lost earring, subject to availability and their current policies. We’re happy to assist you with contacting Tiffany Client Care for options and quotations.
Q: What condition should I expect, what’s included and can I return them? A: These earrings are in Very Good Condition with light signs of careful wear possible unless noted otherwise. This listing includes no accessories unless specifically stated. Returns are accepted under our standard policy—please see our Returns page for eligibility, timeframes and conditions, and ensure the item is returned in the same condition received.
