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 wrist size will the 16.5 cm bracelet fit? A: As a guide, a chain bracelet typically feels comfortable when it is about 1–2 cm longer than your exact wrist measurement. At 16.5 cm, this piece generally suits wrists around 14.5–15.5 cm depending on whether you prefer a close or relaxed fit. Because this bracelet has a toggle clasp, a small amount of ease helps the bar slide through the ring.
Q: Is the lock charm functional? A: On this vintage design the lock motif is decorative. The bracelet fastens with a classic toggle bar and ring, not a hinged or spring‑loaded mechanism.
Q: How secure is the toggle clasp in everyday wear? A: When the bracelet is sized correctly and the bar is fully passed through the ring, toggle clasps are designed to be secure. Avoid wearing it overly loose, check that the T‑bar is lying perpendicular to the ring, and consider asking a trusted jeweller to add a discreet safety chain if you want extra peace of mind.
Q: Can this Tiffany & Co. bracelet be resized or lengthened/shortened? A: Many Tiffany necklaces and bracelets can be altered by adding or removing links. Feasibility, timing and cost depend on the specific style and links. A Tiffany boutique or a skilled jeweller can advise on options for this piece.
Q: Does sterling silver tarnish and how should I clean it? A: Yes—sterling silver naturally tarnishes with exposure to air, humidity, salt, sulphur, chlorine and cosmetics. Regular wear helps minimise tarnish. Clean gently with a silver polishing cloth or a small amount of silver cleaner on a soft cloth, rinse with warm water and dry thoroughly. Store it dry in a soft pouch and avoid bleach and other harsh chemicals.
Q: Can I shower, swim or work out while wearing it? A: It’s best to remove sterling silver jewellery before swimming (chlorine and salt accelerate tarnish) and before showering or exercising, as soaps, lotions and perspiration can dull the finish and increase cleaning needs.
Q: What hallmarks should I expect on authentic Tiffany silver? A: Authentic Tiffany silver typically bears Tiffany & Co. branding and a sterling mark such as 925. Hallmarks confirm metal quality and may vary by country of origin, country of sale and era of production. Their placement and appearance can differ between pieces and are not considered surface damage.
Q: The listing mentions scratches—can they be polished out? A: Light surface scratches on sterling silver can often be professionally polished to refresh the shine. Over‑polishing should be avoided, but a boutique or skilled jeweller can advise on the best approach for this bracelet.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This piece is sold as listed with no accessories. If a Tiffany pouch, box or other extras are not specified under Accessories, they are not included.
Q: How is authenticity guaranteed, and does Tiffany authenticate pre‑owned items? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully authenticated by our in‑house experts. Tiffany & Co. does not currently offer an external authentication programme for merchandise purchased outside their own channels, so we stand behind the authenticity of the pieces we sell.
