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 are these earrings made of? A: They are crafted in sterling silver (925) with Tiffany & Co. hallmarks typical for the house’s silver pieces. Sterling silver is a precious metal and may require occasional cleaning to maintain its shine.
Q: What are the measurements and how do they sit on the ear? A: Approximately 0.8 cm high × 1.5 cm wide × 1.0 cm deep (about 8 × 15 × 10 mm). As petite ribbon-shaped studs, they sit close to the lobe for an elegant everyday look.
Q: Are they for pierced ears? A: Yes. These are stud earrings with post-back fastenings designed for pierced ears.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Accessories are listed as “no accessories”, so a Tiffany box or pouch is not included. The earrings themselves are supplied as photographed; please refer to the images for exactly what is included.
Q: Do sterling silver Tiffany earrings tarnish? A: Sterling silver can naturally tarnish over time, especially with exposure to air, salt, sulphur, lotions, perfume, chlorine and rubber. Regular wear and proper storage slow this process, and light tarnish is easily removed with a quality silver polishing cloth or cleaner made for sterling silver.
Q: How should I clean and store them? A: Gently polish with a soft silver cloth. For a deeper clean, use a small amount of silver jewellery cleaner on a soft cloth, then rinse in warm water and dry thoroughly. Store completely dry in a tarnish-resistant pouch or lined jewellery box, keeping pieces separate to avoid scratches.
Q: Can I wear them in the shower or while swimming? A: It’s best to remove sterling silver before bathing, swimming or exercising. Chlorinated or salt water and sweat can speed up tarnish. If they do get wet, rinse with fresh water and dry well before storing.
Q: Are they suitable for sensitive ears? A: Many people with sensitive ears comfortably wear sterling silver, as quality 925 silver is generally nickel-free. However, sensitivities vary by individual; if you have known metal allergies, introduce wear gradually and discontinue if irritation occurs.
Q: How do I know they are authentic Tiffany & Co.? A: Tiffany silver pieces are typically stamped with the Tiffany & Co. maker’s mark and a metal purity mark such as 925. At A Retro Tale, every item is rigorously vetted by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, hallmarks and craftsmanship, and we stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell.
Q: Can Tiffany service vintage earrings? A: Tiffany & Co. offers professional cleaning and repair services for their jewellery. Many clients choose periodic in‑store cleaning or polishing to keep sterling silver looking its best.
