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: Who designed the Open Heart motif? A: The Open Heart is an iconic design by Elsa Peretti for Tiffany & Co., celebrated for its fluid, minimal form that symbolises love and openness.
Q: What is the necklace length and where will it sit? A: This piece has a chain length of approximately 40 cm (about 16 inches). On most necks this sits near the base of the throat for a classic choker‑style look and is easy to layer with longer chains.
Q: What size is the heart pendant? A: Elsa Peretti Open Heart pendants are produced in multiple sizes across the collection. Exact pendant measurements can vary by edition; please review our photos and contact us if you would like us to confirm the exact dimensions for this piece.
Q: What materials and hallmarks should I expect? A: It is crafted in sterling silver (925). Genuine Tiffany pieces typically feature Tiffany & Co. and metal purity marks; many Peretti designs also carry her signature. Hallmark styles can vary with production era.
Q: Will sterling silver tarnish and how should I care for it? A: Sterling silver can naturally tarnish over time. Wipe after wear, store in a soft pouch, and avoid bleach, household cleaners, pools and hot tubs. Clean gently with a mild soap solution and a quality silver polishing cloth to restore shine.
Q: Is the pendant removable and can I change the length? A: The necklace closes with a spring ring clasp. Many Open Heart pendants slide freely and can be placed on a different fine chain of similar gauge; if no extra adjustment rings are shown, the wearable length is approximately 40 cm. A separate chain extender can be used if you prefer more drop.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed in the product information on this page. If a Tiffany pouch or box is not mentioned there, it is not included.
Q: What is the condition of this piece? A: Very Good overall with light traces of use. The silver remains bright and the hardware shows light surface scratches consistent with gentle wear.
Q: How do you authenticate this necklace? A: Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes multi‑point authentication by our in‑house experts, including checks of materials, construction, hallmarks and design details. We stand behind the authenticity of all items and can share additional photos or details on request.
