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 is this necklace made from and will it tarnish? A: It is crafted in sterling silver (925). Sterling silver naturally develops tarnish over time with exposure to air, moisture and chemicals, but regular wear and proper care help keep it bright. Clean gently and store in a dry, tarnish-resistant pouch when not in use.
Q: What is the length and how will it sit on the neck? A: The perimeter is listed as 36 cm (approx. 14.2 in), which tends to sit as a choker on many necks. For best fit, measure your neck or compare with a favourite necklace of similar length.
Q: Can the length be adjusted or extended? A: Many Tiffany chains can be altered by a jeweller or adjusted using a small extender; some Return to Tiffany styles also come with adjustable chains. Tiffany boutiques offer fit alterations and related services on authentic pieces, subject to assessment and fees. Please check with your local boutique or a trusted jeweller for options.
Q: Can Tiffany add engraving to the heart tag? A: Tiffany offers engraving on a selection of pieces. Availability depends on the specific style and boutique; fees apply. Visit or contact a Tiffany store to confirm what personalisation is possible for your necklace.
Q: How should I clean and store sterling silver Tiffany jewellery? A: Use mild soap in warm water with a soft brush for routine cleaning, rinse and dry thoroughly, then finish with a silver polishing cloth to remove light tarnish. Avoid harsh chemicals (including bleach and chlorine), remove before swimming or using hot tubs, and store in a dry, anti-tarnish pouch to slow oxidation.
Q: Is this piece authentic and what hallmarks should I expect? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is professionally authenticated. Genuine Return to Tiffany pieces typically show precise, well-finished engravings and metal purity marks such as 925, with quality soldered links and consistent craftsmanship. Hallmark placement and fonts can vary by era and specific style, so rely on our product photos and authentication notes for this exact piece.
Q: What does the Return to Tiffany inscription refer to? A: The heart tag motif is inspired by the Tiffany key ring introduced in 1969 and has become an iconic house signature. It represents a heritage design rather than a current registration programme.
Q: What clasp does this necklace use and is it secure? A: It features a lobster clasp closure designed for secure everyday wear. As with all fine jewellery, ensure the clasp is fully closed before wearing and avoid snagging on clothing.
Q: What exactly is included with this listing? A: This item is offered without additional items. Everything included is shown and described in the product information section. If a Tiffany box, pouch or other extras are not listed there, they are not included.
