Q: What size is this earring?
A: This vintage hoop measures approximately 2.5 cm in height, 2.5 cm in width and 0.3 cm in depth. It reads as a neat, medium-sized hoop that adds colour without feeling overly bulky.

Q: What are the main design details?
A: This Tiffany & Co. vintage hoop features silver hardware, orange enamel detailing, a twisted design and a butterfly fastening. It is a distinctive everyday style with a bright pop of colour.

Q: How secure is the butterfly fastening?
A: Butterfly backs are easy to wear and widely used for everyday earrings. As with any friction back, it is worth checking that the back is pushed on firmly before wear and that it still feels snug over time.

Q: What condition is this piece in?
A: It is listed in Very Good condition, with light traces of use. The hardware remains shiny with light surface scratches consistent with careful vintage wear.

Q: Will the silver tarnish over time?
A: Silver jewellery can naturally tarnish with age and exposure to air, moisture and certain chemicals. Gentle regular care, dry storage and avoiding chlorine, bleach, perfume and lotions directly on the piece will help keep it looking its best.

Q: How should I clean this earring?
A: Clean it gently with a soft cloth after wear. If needed, use a cleaner suitable for silver and dry it thoroughly afterwards. Avoid abrasive products, harsh polishing methods and rough scrubbing around the enamel detail.

Q: Can the enamel chip or wear?
A: Enamel is durable but it can chip, crack or dull if knocked against hard surfaces or exposed to harsh chemicals or sudden temperature changes. For that reason, it is best to handle the piece carefully and remove it before sport, swimming or showering.

Q: What is included with this item?
A: No additional items are included with this piece. Everything that comes with the purchase is stated in the product information; if a box, pouch or receipt is not listed there, it is not included.

Q: Can vintage Tiffany jewellery like this be professionally cleaned or repaired?
A: Tiffany offers care and repair services for Tiffany-made jewellery. For a vintage piece with enamel detail, a professional assessment is the safest option before any polishing or repair work is carried out.
