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 of? A: Crafted in sterling silver (925) with a heart key pendant finished in turquoise enamel, suspended from a fine link chain and secured with a spring ring clasp. Tiffany jewellery is produced in sterling silver meeting the .925 standard.
Q: What is the chain length and how will it sit on the neck? A: The chain measures approximately 41 cm (about 16 in), which typically rests around the base of the neck on most wearers. For the best fit, compare with a measured piece of string at home to see where it falls on you.
Q: Can I change the chain or wear the pendant on another necklace? A: Yes—this pendant can typically be styled on other fine link chains of a compatible thickness. If you prefer a different drop, Tiffany offers sterling silver chains in various lengths; swapping is straightforward with the spring ring clasp.
Q: Is the turquoise enamel a gemstone? A: No. Enamel is coloured glass fused to metal, giving vivid, durable colour. As with all enamel surfaces, avoid hard knocks or abrasive contact as enamel can chip or scratch if struck.
Q: How should I clean and store it? A: Clean gently with a soft cloth in lukewarm water and a little mild soap; rinse and dry thoroughly. Avoid abrasive pastes, bleach, or harsh dips, especially near the enamel. Store in a soft pouch in a dry place and keep away from rubber or sulphur‑containing materials that can accelerate tarnish.
Q: Can I shower or swim while wearing it? A: It’s best to remove sterling silver jewellery before bathing, swimming, or using hot tubs. Chlorine and salt water accelerate tarnish and may compromise enamel over time.
Q: Is sterling silver hypoallergenic? A: Sterling silver is 92.5% pure silver with 7.5% other metals, typically copper. Many people with sensitive skin wear it comfortably, but if you have a known nickel allergy and are highly reactive, consider limiting prolonged contact and consult us with any concerns.
Q: How do you authenticate this vintage Tiffany piece? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously authenticated by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, construction, and hallmarks. Tiffany jewellery commonly bears stamps such as Tiffany & Co. and 925; additional photos can be provided on request.
Q: What accessories are included with this item? A: This piece is sold as photographed with no accessories. Anything included is always specified under the Accessories section on this page.
Q: Can Tiffany service or polish this necklace in the future? A: Yes. Tiffany & Co. offers professional cleaning, polishing and repair services for their jewellery, and can advise on enamel‑safe care. Your local boutique can assist with assessments and service options.
