Tiffany & Co Silver Dog Charm

Q: What are the dimensions of this Tiffany & Co Silver Dog Charm?
A: According to the product information, the charm measures approximately 3 cm in height, 4.5 cm in width and 0.1 cm in depth. Please use these measurements to judge scale carefully before purchasing.

Q: Is this charm made of sterling silver?
A: Tiffany & Co silver charms are typically made in sterling silver, also known as 925 silver. Sterling silver is a precious metal that can develop light tarnish over time, which is normal and can usually be improved with proper care.

Q: What condition is this charm in?
A: This piece is listed in Very Good Condition. The product information notes marks and scratches, and the hardware is described as shiny with scratches, so signs of previous use should be expected.

Q: Does this item come with a box, pouch or other extras?
A: No. The product information states no accessories, so only the charm itself is included unless otherwise stated on the product page.

Q: Can this dog charm be worn on a necklace or bracelet?
A: In many cases, a charm like this can be styled on a bracelet, chain or keyring if the fitting is compatible. As chain styles and clasp sizes vary, we recommend checking the attachment point carefully to ensure it suits your preferred way of wearing it.

Q: Will sterling silver tarnish over time?
A: Yes. Tarnish is a natural reaction in sterling silver, especially with exposure to moisture, air, perfume, lotions or sulphur-containing materials. This is normal for silver jewellery and does not mean the piece is not genuine.

Q: How should I care for this Tiffany silver charm?
A: Gently wipe it with a soft cloth after wear and store it in a dry place away from humidity and direct sunlight. Avoid harsh chemicals, perfume and prolonged contact with water. If needed, use a silver polishing cloth suitable for sterling silver and polish gently to help maintain its shine.

Q: How can I judge whether the size is right for me?
A: Because charms can look larger or smaller depending on how they are styled, we recommend comparing the listed measurements with a charm, pendant or bag charm you already own. This is the best way to visualise how it will look in real life.

Q: How do you authenticate Tiffany & Co items?
A: At A Retro Tale, pre-owned designer pieces are carefully vetted for authenticity. For Tiffany & Co jewellery, typical checks include overall craftsmanship, hallmarks, material quality and consistency of design details, alongside the item's overall presentation and condition.
