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 are the key details of this necklace? A: This vintage Tiffany & Co necklace is crafted in 18kt gold and features a shell motif pendant with an emerald detail. The pendant measures approximately 1.5 x 1.5 cm, and the necklace fastens with a spring ring closure.
Q: How long is the necklace, and where will it sit when worn? A: The chain length is approximately 41 cm, which is close to 16 inches. On most people, that length sits at or just below the collarbone, although the exact position will vary depending on neck circumference and how you like your necklaces to fit.
Q: Is 41 cm a good length for layering? A: Yes. A 41 cm necklace works well as a shorter layer and can pair beautifully with slightly longer chains for a staggered look. If you want to check the drop before purchasing, compare it with a necklace you already own in a similar length.
Q: Is this necklace better suited to everyday wear or special occasions? A: It can work for both. Its fine 18kt gold construction and compact pendant size make it elegant enough for daily wear, while the emerald detail also gives it a dressier feel for evening or occasion styling. As with any vintage fine jewellery, gentler wear will help preserve it over time.
Q: What condition is the necklace in? A: It is listed in very good vintage condition, with light traces of use. The hardware is described as shiny with light scratches, which is normal for a pre-owned fine jewellery piece of this age.
Q: Does it come with original box, papers or other product information? A: No original box, authenticity card or other extras are listed in the product information for this piece. Everything included should be considered exactly as described on the product page.
Q: How should I care for the 18kt gold? A: Clean it gently with a soft cloth and, when needed, lukewarm water with a little mild soap. Dry it thoroughly afterwards and avoid bleach, harsh cleaning products, perfume sprayed directly onto the necklace, and wearing it while swimming, bathing or exercising.
Q: Does the emerald require extra care? A: Yes. Emeralds are beautiful but more delicate than some other stones, so it is best to avoid knocks, abrasive contact, ultrasonic cleaning and steam cleaning. Gentle handling and careful storage will help protect both the stone and its setting.
Q: Is a spring ring clasp secure? A: A spring ring clasp is a classic and reliable closure for a fine necklace when it is functioning properly. Before wearing, it is always sensible to check that the clasp springs closed neatly and that the connecting ring feels secure.
Q: How is a vintage Tiffany & Co necklace typically authenticated? A: Vintage Tiffany & Co jewellery is usually authenticated through a combination of hallmarks, metal purity marks, craftsmanship, finishing details and overall construction. For 18kt gold pieces, collectors often expect Tiffany & Co markings together with an 18kt or 750 gold mark, commonly found near the clasp or closure area. Every item at A Retro Tale is vetted for authenticity before sale.
