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: What metals is this bracelet made from? A: This vintage Tiffany & Co. bracelet features a sterling silver chain with an 18ct yellow gold heart-shaped lock charm. Sterling silver is typically stamped 925 (92.5% pure silver) and 18ct gold is often stamped 750 (75% pure gold).
Q: Does the heart lock work as the clasp? A: No. This piece closes with a practical lobster clasp; the 18ct gold heart lock is a decorative charm.
Q: Will size 18 fit my wrist? A: Fit depends on how you like a bracelet to sit. As a guide, measure your wrist snugly and add about 1–2 cm for comfort. If you would like the exact end‑to‑end length of this piece, contact us and we will confirm the measurement for you.
Q: Will the silver tarnish and how should I clean it? A: Sterling silver can naturally tarnish over time. Clean gently with mild soap and warm water, dry thoroughly, and use a quality silver polishing cloth for shine. Avoid chlorine, bleach and harsh chemicals. Storing the bracelet dry in an anti‑tarnish pouch helps slow tarnish.
Q: Do I need to treat the 18ct gold charm differently when cleaning? A: Yes—gold is more resistant to tarnish, so simply wipe the gold heart lock with a soft, non‑abrasive cloth. When polishing the silver chain, avoid aggressive silver dips; a polishing cloth is safer for mixed‑metal pieces.
Q: Can the length be adjusted? A: Many chain bracelets can be shortened by removing a link; lengthening may require sourcing matching links and is not always possible. A skilled jeweller (or a Tiffany boutique) can advise on feasibility and cost.
Q: How do you authenticate this Tiffany piece? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously checked by our experts. We inspect metal stamps (such as Tiffany & Co., 925 for sterling silver and 750 for 18ct gold), craftsmanship, soldered links, weight and finishing details, and cross‑reference known production traits. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Please refer to the product information on this page. If a dust bag, box or other extras are not listed there, they are not included. The item is sold as photographed.
Q: Is it safe to wear every day and around water? A: It is suitable for everyday wear. Brief contact with clean water is generally fine—dry thoroughly afterwards. Avoid pools, hot tubs, saunas, and contact with perfumes, lotions, bleach or household cleaners, which can dull finishes or accelerate tarnish.
