18" Vintage Authentic Return Tiffany Toggle Heart Tag Necklace with Box or Pouch

Used💍 Jewellery · Victorian–1980s

The edit · Jewellery

A used piece of jewellery. Nothing on a vintage jewellery tray was designed by committee. Chunky chains and carved cameos share the same handmade quality that modern production cannot copy.

Breakfast at Tiffany's, and everything since.

Founded in New York in 1837 by Charles Lewis Tiffany as a stationery and fancy goods store. It became the great American jeweller, and its 1886 six-prong Tiffany setting changed engagement rings forever.

Tiffany silver, from Paloma Picasso to Elsa Peretti, and its vintage jewellery are collected worldwide. A blue box is still shorthand for the real thing.

What to look for

The stamp is everything: Tiffany & Co., the metal mark, and often a year or maker's mark. Peretti and Picasso pieces should carry their signature.

Hallmarks tell the story. A clear maker's mark or metal stamp is worth more than a pretty setting, so turn the piece over before you fall for it.

How to wear it

One heavy piece beats three delicate ones. Mix gold with silver deliberately, and pin a brooch to a lapel slightly higher than feels natural.
