Its twisted rope design with a hook closure brings understated elegance from day to evening, making it a thoughtful gift for milestone moments.
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 does this bangle best fit? A: The inner perimeter is approximately 17.5 cm. As a guide, many customers with wrists around 16–17 cm find this a close but comfortable fit. Measure your wrist with a flexible tape; for bangles and cuffs a snug fit is recommended, and if you are between sizes, choose the larger size. Please compare with a well-fitting bangle you already own for certainty and refer to the Measurements on this page for exact details.
Q: Can the bangle be resized? A: Resizing depends on the design. Tiffany & Co. offers resizing or fit alterations for select styles; some rigid or structured designs may not be eligible. If you need an adjustment, a Tiffany Client Advisor can confirm options and timing for this specific style.
Q: How does the hook closure work and is it secure? A: The hook-and-eye closure is designed for everyday wear. To fasten, guide the hook under and past the opposing ball end until it sits fully in place; to remove, reverse the step with gentle pressure. As with all hook bracelets, avoid snagging on knitwear and check the closure is properly seated before wear.
Q: What metals is it made from? A: This vintage piece is crafted in sterling silver with 18k yellow gold detailing. Sterling silver is 92.5% pure silver (often marked 925) and 18k gold is 75% pure gold (often marked 750).
Q: What hallmarks should I expect to see? A: Authentic Tiffany jewellery is typically stamped Tiffany & Co. along with metal purity marks such as 925 for sterling silver and 750 for 18k gold. Stamps should be crisp, evenly aligned and legible. Locations vary by style and may be on the inside of the bangle near the closure.
Q: Will sterling silver tarnish and how should I care for it? A: Sterling silver can tarnish naturally, especially with exposure to salt air, chlorine and products containing sulphur. Regular wear actually helps minimise tarnish. Clean gently with a soft cloth and a silver polish approved for jewellery, rinse with warm water and dry thoroughly. Store in a soft, dry pouch when not in use.
Q: How do I care for the 18k gold elements? A: Avoid bleach, chlorine pools, harsh cleaners and abrasive polishing. Between professional cleanings, use mild soapy water, rinse well and dry with a soft cloth. Store separately from other pieces to limit surface scratches.
Q: Can I shower or swim while wearing it? A: It’s best to remove the bangle before showering, swimming, using hot tubs or doing household chores. Water, soaps and chlorine can accelerate tarnish on silver and dull the finish on precious metals over time.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under the product information section on this page. If an item such as a box, pouch or polishing cloth is not listed there, it is not included.
Q: The listing notes light scratches—can these be improved? A: Light surface scratches are normal for pre-loved sterling silver and gold. Professional cleaning and polishing services are available; a Tiffany craftsperson can advise on the best approach for this design.
