Q: Can I wear this bracelet every day?
A: Yes, it is well suited to regular wear, but it is best to remove it before showering, swimming, exercising, applying perfume or lotion, or doing household chores. This helps minimise scratches and slows tarnishing.

Q: How do you authenticate pre-owned Tiffany jewellery?
A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully checked by specialists using design details, craftsmanship, materials and brand-specific markers. Tiffany & Co. does not run a public authentication programme for merchandise, which is why buying from a trusted authenticated reseller is important.
