Tiffany & Co Heart 18kt Yellow Gold Earrings

Q: Are these Tiffany & Co. Heart Earrings authentic?
A: Yes. Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously vetted by our in‑house experts and sold with our authenticity commitment. Shop with confidence.

Q: What material are they made from? Are they solid gold?
A: These earrings are crafted from solid 18kt yellow gold (also known as Au750). They are not plated. Tiffany & Co. is renowned for using high‑quality precious metals, ensuring a rich, warm tone and lasting durability.

Q: What are the measurements? Are they large?
A: These are petite stud earrings, measuring approximately 0.7 cm in height and 1.0 cm in width. This subtle size makes them perfect for everyday wear or as a sophisticated accent for a second piercing.

Q: How do they fasten?
A: They feature a classic post‑back closure (often called a butterfly or friction back) designed for pierced ears. This style offers a secure and comfortable fit for daily use.

Q: What hallmarks should I look for?
A: Authentic Tiffany & Co. gold jewellery typically bears the “Tiffany & Co.” signature along with a metal purity stamp, such as “750” or “18k”. These stamps are usually located on the back of the earring or on the post itself.

Q: Are they suitable for sensitive ears?
A: Yes. 18kt gold is a high‑purity alloy that is generally hypoallergenic and well‑tolerated by those with metal sensitivities. If you have specific allergies, however, we recommend monitoring your comfort during wear.

Q: How should I care for 18kt yellow gold?
A: To maintain their lustre, clean them occasionally with a soft, dry polishing cloth. You can also wash them gently with mild soap and warm water, drying them thoroughly afterwards. Avoid exposing the gold to household bleach or chlorine (such as in swimming pools), as these can damage the metal.

Q: What is the condition and what is included?
A: These earrings are in Very Good Condition, meaning they have been well‑cared for with only light signs of wear. Please note that this listing is for the earrings only and does not include the original box or accessories unless explicitly shown in the images. Returns are accepted under our standard policy.
