Tiffany & Co Silver Heart Bracelet

Q: What is this bracelet made from?
A: It is crafted in sterling silver (925) with a twisted rope chain and a Return to Tiffany heart tag finished in Tiffany Blue enamel. It closes with a lobster clasp. As a vintage piece, gentle signs of wear may be present—please review the photos and product information.

Q: What wrist size will the 16.5 cm perimeter fit?
A: The bracelet measures approximately 16.5 cm in perimeter (about 6.5 inches). It generally suits wrists close to or slightly under this measurement for a comfortable fit. Measure your wrist where you’ll wear it and compare to 16.5 cm, allowing a little room for movement.

Q: Is the length adjustable?
A: The length is fixed and not adjustable by design. If you need extra length, a jeweller can add a small sterling‑silver extender. Tiffany & Co. also offers fit alterations on selected designs; availability varies by model and store.

Q: Can I wear it in the shower or when swimming?
A: Tiffany advises removing jewellery before showering, swimming (including pools, hot tubs and the sea), exercising and applying lotions or fragrances. This helps minimise tarnish and protects the enamel finish.

Q: How should I clean and store the bracelet?
A: Polish the silver gently with a soft anti‑tarnish cloth. If deeper cleaning is needed, use a cleaner formulated for sterling silver, then rinse with warm water and dry thoroughly. Avoid bleach and harsh chemicals. Store in a soft pouch in a cool, dry place and keep pieces separate to reduce scratches.

Q: Will the Tiffany Blue enamel chip or fade?
A: Enamel is durable but glass‑like, so it can chip or show wear if knocked, abraded or exposed to harsh chemicals. Avoid impacts and remove the bracelet for sport or heavy tasks. Depending on the damage, enamel repair options may be limited.

Q: What does “Return to Tiffany” signify?
A: The motif traces back to Tiffany’s 1969 key ring and later evolved into the jewellery collection featuring engraved heart tags. It remains one of the house’s most recognisable signatures.

Q: What stamps should I expect to see on authentic pieces?
A: Typical hallmarks include Tiffany & Co. and a purity mark such as 925, often on the tag and/or clasp. Hallmarks alone are not proof of authenticity; all pieces at A Retro Tale undergo professional, multi‑point authentication before listing.

Q: What comes with this item?
A: Everything included is specified under product information. This listing notes no additional items; if a box, pouch or paperwork is not mentioned there, it is not included.

Q: Can the heart tag be engraved?
A: Many heart tag designs can be engraved depending on shape and available surface. A Retro Tale does not offer engraving, but Tiffany & Co. provides personalisation on select designs—please check with a Tiffany boutique or a trusted jeweller.
