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: What is the length and how will this necklace sit when worn? A: The perimeter is approximately 85 cm (about 33.5 in), designed as a long beaded chain that typically falls below the bust on most wearers. Many people also double the chain to create a shorter, layered look.
Q: What materials is it made from, and will it tarnish? A: It is crafted in .925 sterling silver. Sterling silver naturally develops tarnish over time with exposure to air, moisture and everyday chemicals; regular gentle cleaning and proper storage will help maintain its shine.
Q: How should I clean and care for the sterling silver? A: Polish gently with a quality silver-polishing cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a small amount of silver jewellery cleaner on a soft cloth, then rinse with warm water and dry thoroughly. To minimise tarnish, avoid contact with lotions, perfumes, chlorine and household cleaners, and store the piece in a dry, tarnish-resistant pouch or lined box when not in use. We recommend removing jewellery before showering, swimming or exercising.
Q: Can the heart tag be engraved? A: Many Return to Tiffany heart tags can be engraved by Tiffany & Co., though availability depends on the specific piece and its condition. As this is a pre-owned item, engraving would need to be arranged directly with Tiffany & Co. after purchase.
Q: What does the “Please Return to Tiffany & Co. New York” inscription mean? A: The inscription pays homage to a 1969 Tiffany key ring that carried a registration number and a message to return lost keys to Tiffany for recovery. The idea evolved into the Return to Tiffany jewellery collection, now an enduring house icon.
Q: Is the chain length adjustable? A: This model features a lobster clasp on a beaded chain and typically does not include extra adjustment rings. A jeweller can shorten the chain if desired, and some wearers double the chain to achieve a shorter drop.
Q: What hallmarks should I expect to see on an authentic piece? A: Authentic Tiffany pieces typically bear the Tiffany & Co. signature and metal purity marks such as 925 on the pendant and/or clasp. Exact placement can vary by production era and model.
Q: What is included with this listing? A: The listing is for the necklace only. Any extras such as a box or pouch are included only if specifically stated under the product information section on this page.
Q: How do you authenticate this item? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is assessed by our specialists using multi‑point checks of materials, engraving, hallmarks, weight and craftsmanship. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can provide additional details on request.
