Q: What is this necklace made from? A: Solid sterling silver (925), meaning 92.5% pure silver alloyed for strength. It features a teardrop pendant on a fine link chain with a spring ring clasp. As a vintage piece, minor stamp or finish variations can occur—please review the photos for details.
Q: What is the chain length and where will it sit on the neck? A: The chain is approximately 41 cm (about 16 inches), which typically sits at the base of the neck on most wearers—ideal for everyday wear and easy layering.
Q: Is the length adjustable? A: This necklace closes with a spring ring clasp and does not have additional adjustment stations. If you prefer extra length, a jeweller can add a small extender or you can pair the pendant with a longer chain of similar gauge.
Q: Will sterling silver tarnish? A: Yes, sterling silver can naturally tarnish, especially with exposure to salt air or products containing sulphur. Regular wear helps reduce tarnish. Clean gently with a soft silver cloth and store dry in a pouch or box when not in use.
Q: Can I shower or swim while wearing it? A: We recommend removing sterling silver before showering, swimming or using hot tubs. Water, chlorine and bleach can accelerate tarnishing. If it does get wet, rinse in clean water, dry thoroughly and buff with a soft cloth.
Q: Can it be polished or refurbished? A: Light tarnish can be removed with a quality silver polishing cloth. For deeper cleaning or refinishing, a professional jeweller can polish the piece; specialist cleaning services are also available for Tiffany silver for a fee.
Q: Is the pendant removable and can I use a different chain? A: The pendant hangs from a fine link chain via a bail. Many wearers choose to style it on different chains of a similar thickness. If swapping chains, check the bail opening and seek advice from a jeweller if unsure.
Q: Is this design by Elsa Peretti? A: Tiffany has produced teardrop pendants in various sizes and chain lengths, including designs by Elsa Peretti. This listing does not specify a designer; please check the close-up photos of the stamps and contact us if you would like us to confirm the hallmark details for you.
Q: What comes with the necklace? A: Everything included is listed under the product information on this page. If a Tiffany box, pouch or documentation is not shown there, it is not included.
Q: What is the condition? A: Very good condition with a shiny finish and light surface scratches consistent with gentle wear. Please refer to the photos for an accurate view of the condition.
