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 how will it sit on the neck? A: The chain measures approximately 41 cm (around 16 inches), which usually sits close to the base of the neck as a short necklace. On many wearers it reads as a choker/short length and is great for layering with 45 cm and 50 cm chains. Fit can vary by neck size and pendant proportions—use a piece of string at 41 cm to preview where it falls on you.
Q: Is this necklace solid 18k gold and does it have Tiffany hallmarks? A: Yes. As noted in the product information, this piece is crafted in 18k yellow gold. Authentic Tiffany jewellery typically carries hallmarks such as Tiffany & Co and a gold purity mark like 750 or Au750 indicating 18 karat gold. On vintage pieces, these stamps are commonly found on the pendant and/or near the clasp.
Q: What clasp does it use and how secure is it? A: It features a spring ring clasp. This classic, compact closure is designed for fine chains—press the small lever to open, attach to the ring, and release to close. For best security, ensure the clasp closes fully and have a jeweller check the spring and jump rings periodically if you wear it often.
Q: Can the chain length be adjusted if I prefer it longer? A: The 41 cm length is fixed on this piece. Many jewellers can add a small extender (for example 2–5 cm) if you’d like extra drop, and Tiffany boutiques may offer fit alterations on some styles. Availability varies by piece, so we recommend consulting a professional jeweller. A Retro Tale does not modify vintage items prior to sale.
Q: Is this part of the Tiffany Bow collection and what does the motif represent? A: Yes—this design echoes Tiffany’s Bow motif, which is inspired by the refined elegance of a tied ribbon and symbolises close ties. It’s a timeless, feminine signature that appears across Tiffany rings, earrings, bracelets and necklaces.
Q: Does this necklace include any diamonds or gemstones? A: No. This specific piece, as described in the product information, is crafted in 18k yellow gold with a delicate bow pendant and does not include gemstones. Diamond-accented Bow styles exist, but stones would be clearly listed if present.
Q: How should I care for 18k gold Tiffany jewellery? A: Clean gently with lukewarm water, a drop of mild dish soap and a soft brush or cloth; rinse and dry thoroughly. Avoid abrasives and harsh chemicals (especially chlorine), and store separately to prevent scratches. For a professional refresh, Tiffany offers cleaning and polishing services.
Q: Is it suitable for everyday wear, including showering or swimming? A: 18k gold is durable for daily wear, but we recommend removing jewellery before showering, swimming, exercising or applying perfume and lotions to minimise soap film, chemicals and micro‑abrasion. Wipe with a soft cloth after wear to keep its shine.
Q: What is included and what is the condition? A: The product information notes that a box is included. This vintage piece is in very good condition with a shiny finish and light surface scratches consistent with gentle wear. Minor marks are normal for vintage gold and can often be reduced with a professional polish if desired.
Q: How do you authenticate this Tiffany & Co piece? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously authenticated by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, construction, hallmarks and overall craftsmanship. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can share additional photos or details on request.
