Vintage Tiffany & Co Sterling Silver Heart Perfume Bottle Travel Flask Dauber

Used🛋️ Furniture · 1950s–70s

The edit · Furniture

A used piece of furniture in silver. Old furniture was built before flat-pack, with dovetail joints and solid wood you can still smell. It was made to be passed on, not replaced.

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.

Dovetail joints and solid wood, never veneer over particleboard. A maker's stamp on the underside is the strongest sign of a real piece.

How to place it

Mix one vintage piece with the modern and let the patina show. A maker's stamp on the underside is the strongest sign of the real thing.
