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, and is it solid silver? A: This Tiffany & Co key necklace is crafted in sterling silver (925). Tiffany uses solid sterling silver rather than silver plating; the 925 mark denotes 92.5% pure silver.
Q: What hallmarks should I expect to see on a genuine Tiffany silver key necklace? A: Typical marks include Tiffany & Co and 925 on the pendant and/or chain. Hallmarks are legally required quality and metal marks; placement can vary by design and era, and vintage pieces may show gentle wear to the stamps.
Q: Will sterling silver tarnish, and how do I keep it bright? A: Yes—sterling silver naturally tarnishes over time, especially with exposure to air, sulphur, chlorine, or cosmetics. Wear it often, wipe with a soft polishing cloth, and store it dry in a pouch or box. To clean, use a gentle silver polish, rinse with warm water, and dry thoroughly. Avoid harsh chemicals, ultrasonic cleaners with oxidation-finished pieces, and bleach or chlorine.
Q: Can I shower or swim while wearing it? A: It’s best to remove sterling silver before showering, swimming, or using hot tubs. Chlorine and some soaps accelerate tarnish and may dull the finish over time.
Q: What is the chain length and where will it sit on the neck? A: The chain measures approximately 41 cm (about 16 in) and fastens with a spring ring clasp. On most wearers this sits near the collarbone and is easy to layer with longer necklaces.
Q: Can the chain length be adjusted or swapped? A: Yes. You can add a short extender for a little extra drop or switch to a longer chain for layering. Tiffany stores or qualified jewellers can provide alternative chain lengths and professional adjustments or cleaning as a paid service.
Q: Is this part of the Tiffany Keys collection? A: Tiffany has created key motifs for many years; the modern Tiffany Keys collection debuted in 2009. Designs and sizes vary by style and era. Please review the photos and details here to confirm it matches the look you want.
Q: What condition is this piece in? A: It is in Very Good condition with a shiny finish and light surface scratches consistent with gentle wear. There are no major dents or structural issues noted.
Q: What accessories are included? A: This item is sold as photographed and listed with no accessories. If a box, pouch, or paperwork is not listed under Accessories, it is not included.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate Tiffany jewellery? A: Every piece undergoes multi-point checks by our in-house experts—examining materials, weight, construction, soldered chain links, hallmarks, engraving quality, and overall craftsmanship. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can share additional photos or details on request.
