Effortlessly refined for weddings, anniversaries or gifting milestones, it transitions seamlessly from daytime polish to evening glamour.
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: Is this Tiffany & Co. Diamonds by the Yard necklace authentic? A: Yes. Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously vetted by our in‑house experts and sold with our authenticity commitment. Shop with confidence.
Q: What materials is it made from? Is it solid gold? A: This necklace is crafted from 18k yellow gold and features a single, bezel‑set round brilliant diamond. It is solid gold, adhering to the quality standards of the Elsa Peretti Diamonds by the Yard collection. Please review the close‑up photos for hallmarks.
Q: What is the length and how does it fit? A: The chain measures approximately 40 cm (roughly 16 inches). This length typically sits at or just below the collarbone, creating a delicate focal point. We recommend measuring your neck or a favourite necklace to ensure this length suits your style.
Q: Is the chain delicate? Can I wear it every day? A: Elsa Peretti designed this collection to be versatile enough for daily wear. However, the 18k gold fine cable chain is delicate by design to give the appearance of the diamond floating on the skin. It should be handled with care to avoid snagging or tangling.
Q: How does the clasp work? A: It secures with a classic spring‑ring clasp, which is small and discreet to match the fine gauge of the chain. Ensure the clasp is fully closed when fastening.
Q: How big is the diamond? A: The listing describes a single brilliant‑cut diamond. While the specific carat weight is not stated here, Tiffany’s single‑stone pendants in this collection are renowned for their high‑quality cut and sparkle, regardless of size. If you require precise measurements or carat weight, please contact us for details on this specific piece.
Q: Can I shower or swim with it on? A: While solid gold and diamonds are durable, we recommend removing fine jewellery before showering, swimming, or applying lotions and perfumes. This prevents residue build‑up behind the setting, which dulls the sparkle, and protects the delicate chain and clasp mechanism.
Q: How should I store it to prevent knots? A: Due to the fine nature of the chain, it can knot if tossed loosely into a box. We recommend storing it hanging up or laid flat in a dedicated jewellery box or pouch when not in use.
Q: What condition should I expect, what is included, and can I return it? A: This necklace is in Very Good Condition, meaning it has been well‑cared for with only light signs of wear possible. This listing includes no accessories (no box or pouch) unless specifically shown in the images. Returns are accepted under our standard policy—please see our Returns page for eligibility, timeframes and conditions.
