Q: What is it made from? Is it solid sterling silver?
A: This vintage Tiffany & Co. bracelet is described as sterling silver (.925). Tiffany pioneered the modern sterling standard and their silver pieces are crafted from 92.5% pure silver alloyed for strength. If you’d like us to confirm any composition details for this specific bracelet, just ask and we’ll check the hallmarks and provide close‑ups.

Q: What hallmarks should I expect on a Tiffany silver charm bracelet?
A: Typical stamps include “TIFFANY & CO.” and a fineness mark such as “925” or “STERLING”. Marks can appear on the clasp tag, jump ring or individual charms and may vary by era, country of sale or designer. Please refer to our photos for the exact stamps on this piece—contact us if you’d like us to verify any hallmark placement.

Q: What are the measurements and how will it fit?
A: The bracelet perimeter is approximately 17 cm, with an estimated width of about 1.3 cm and depth around 0.5 cm. As a guide, a 17 cm bracelet generally suits wrists up to roughly 15.5–16 cm for a comfortable drape. If you’d like a precise on‑wrist photo or exact link measurements, we’ll be happy to provide them.

Q: How does it fasten?
A: It features a branded clasp closure. Tiffany link charm bracelets commonly use a lobster clasp or similar secure fastener; please see our close‑up images for the exact closure on this bracelet.

Q: Can I add or remove charms?
A: Yes. Most Tiffany charms are attached via jump rings or split rings, and many clients choose to have charms professionally soldered for extra security. Tiffany boutiques and qualified jewellers can assist with installing or removing charms; fees and lead times vary by location. We’re happy to recommend trusted specialists if needed.

Q: Is sterling silver suitable for sensitive skin? Is it nickel‑free?
A: Sterling silver is typically alloyed primarily with copper and is generally considered nickel‑free, though individual sensitivities can vary. If you have known allergies, monitor comfort and discontinue wear if irritation occurs—feel free to ask us for tailored advice.

Q: How should I care for and clean it?
A: Keep the bracelet dry and avoid contact with perfume, lotions, chlorine and household chemicals. After wear, wipe with a soft, dry polishing cloth. For a deeper clean, use mild soap and lukewarm water, rinse well and dry thoroughly; Tiffany offers professional cleaning and polishing services. If any charms feature enamel or stones, avoid chemical dips and ultrasonic cleaners.

Q: Can the length be adjusted?
A: Many chain bracelets can be shortened or lengthened by removing/adding links or using an extender. Tiffany & Co. provides alterations for select styles, and reputable jewellers can also assist. Note that modifications may affect originality and future resale value—please consult us before proceeding.

Q: Can I wear it in the shower, swimming or to sleep?
A: We recommend removing sterling silver jewellery before showering, swimming or exercising. Chlorine and some chemicals accelerate tarnish and can stress clasps. For longevity, avoid sleeping in the bracelet and consider adding a professionally fitted safety chain if you want extra security when wearing it.

Q: What condition should I expect, what is included, and can I return it?
A: This bracelet is in Very Good Condition with light signs of careful wear possible unless noted otherwise. This listing includes no accessories unless specifically shown or stated. Returns are accepted under our standard policy—please see our Returns page for eligibility, timeframes and conditions, and ensure the item is returned in the same condition received.
