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: Is this Tiffany & Co. Starfish necklace 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 is it made from? Is it solid sterling silver or plated? A: This necklace is crafted in sterling silver (925). Both pendant and chain are silver, not silver‑plated fashion jewellery. Please review our close‑up photos and features for further detail, and contact us if you’d like any specific confirmations.
Q: What are the measurements and how will it sit when worn? A: The chain measures approximately 40 cm (about 16 inches) and the starfish pendant is around 1.5 cm (height) x 1.5 cm (width) x 0.4 cm (depth). A 40 cm chain typically sits at the base of the neck/just on the collarbone for most wearers. If you prefer a lower drop, a short extender can be added by a jeweller.
Q: How does it fasten? A: It features a classic spring‑ring clasp on a fine link chain for secure, everyday wear. Always ensure the clasp is fully closed before wearing.
Q: Which designer is associated with Tiffany’s starfish motif and what hallmarks should I expect? A: Tiffany starfish pendants are widely associated with Elsa Peretti’s designs. Many examples carry hallmarks such as “TIFFANY & CO.” and “925”; Peretti pieces often include “PERETTI” and “SPAIN”. This listing notes Spain as the country of origin. Placement of stamps varies by era and size—our photos show any hallmarks present on this piece.
Q: Will sterling silver tarnish? How should I clean and care for it? A: Sterling silver naturally develops tarnish over time, especially with exposure to moisture, air pollution, perfumes, lotions and hand sanitiser. Keep the necklace dry, remove it before showering, swimming, exercising and applying cosmetics, and store it separately in a soft pouch or anti‑tarnish box. To clean, use a mild soap and lukewarm water rinse, dry thoroughly, and finish with a non‑abrasive silver polishing cloth. For heavier tarnish, use a quality silver jewellery cleaner as directed. Avoid abrasive toothpaste, harsh chemical dips and ultrasonic cleaners.
Q: Is it suitable for sensitive skin? Is sterling silver nickel‑free? A: Sterling silver is typically alloyed with copper and is generally considered nickel‑free; most people find it comfortable for daily wear. However, sensitivities vary—if irritation occurs, discontinue wear and consult us for care guidance.
Q: Can the chain length be adjusted or replaced? A: A competent jeweller can add a small extender, adjust or replace the chain, and service the clasp if needed. We don’t perform in‑house alterations, but we’re happy to advise on reputable specialists. Note that modifications may affect originality and resale value.
Q: Can I wear it every day, including in water or at the gym? A: Daily wear is fine with sensible care, but we recommend removing sterling silver before showering, swimming (chlorine/salt water) and workouts to minimise tarnish and surface wear.
Q: What condition should I expect, what is included, and can I return it? A: This necklace is in Very Good Condition with light signs of careful wear possible unless otherwise noted. This listing includes no accessories unless specifically shown—stated as “no accessories.” 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.
