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 the chain length and where will it sit on the neck? A: The necklace measures approximately 41 cm (about 16 inches), which typically sits at the base of the neck on most people. It’s a classic length for everyday wear and works well layered with longer chains (45–50 cm and beyond).
Q: Is the chain length adjustable? A: This piece has a fixed length of about 41 cm with a spring ring closure and is not adjustable by default. A professional jeweller (including Tiffany & Co.) may be able to shorten or lengthen certain chains for a fee, depending on the design. A Retro Tale does not alter vintage pieces prior to sale.
Q: What is the necklace made of? A: It is crafted in sterling silver. Sterling silver is an alloy containing 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% other metals (usually copper), valued for its bright lustre and durability in daily wear.
Q: How is this piece authenticated? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously authenticated by our specialists. Authentic Tiffany jewellery typically carries clear hallmarks such as “Tiffany & Co.” and “925” (for sterling silver), and shows quality construction and finishing. We’re happy to share close-up photos of stamps on request.
Q: Will sterling silver tarnish and can I wear it in the shower or pool? A: Sterling silver can naturally tarnish over time, especially with exposure to moisture, sulphur, salty air and chlorine. We recommend removing the necklace before showering, swimming or using hot tubs, and avoiding contact with household chemicals and cosmetics to minimise tarnish.
Q: How should I clean and care for this necklace? A: Gently polish with a clean, soft silver cloth after wear. For deeper cleaning, use a mild silver-specific cleaner or warm water with a small amount of mild soap, then rinse and dry thoroughly. Store the necklace dry, ideally in an anti-tarnish pouch or lined box, and keep it separate from other pieces to prevent scratches. Professional cleaning and polishing services are available from Tiffany & Co.
Q: Is sterling silver suitable for sensitive skin? A: Most people find 925 sterling silver comfortable for daily wear. As it contains a small proportion of other metals (commonly copper), those with specific metal sensitivities should monitor for any reaction and keep the piece clean and dry, as tarnish and residues can sometimes irritate skin.
Q: What closure does it have and is it secure? A: It features a spring ring clasp, a classic and secure closure commonly used on fine link chains. Ensure the clasp is fully closed before wearing and periodically check the ring and jump rings for tightness.
Q: What exactly is included with this item? A: This necklace is sold as shown. Unless explicitly listed in the product information on this page, additional items such as a Tiffany box, pouch or receipt are not included.
Q: Can Tiffany & Co. service this vintage piece in the future? A: Tiffany & Co. offers cleaning, polishing, clasp and chain services, and other repairs on many of their designs. Availability depends on the specific piece and its condition; their client services team can advise and quote for work.
