Ways Of Spoting Fake Tiffany & Co Jewelry


Here are seven steps to teach you how to spot Tiffany jewelry
.Hope it’s useful.
1.Look at the seller. Note how many Tiffany & Co items they are selling at any one time and if there are multiples of the same item. Beware of a seller offering a ring in multiple sizes and asking you to specify your preference during payment. That’s usually a dead giveaway.
2.Ask questions: Don’t be afraid to send the seller questions like “Is this the actual picture of the item I will receive?” or “Do you have a close-up of the T&Co signature and engravement on the item that you can send me?” Be weary of sellers that use stock photos from the T&Co web site without any other supporting photos. Also keep in mind sellers that say “I don’t take pictures of my actual items because I prefer not to handle them.”
3.COMPARE, COMPARE, COMPARE!!! Go to the Tiffany’s web site and view their picture of the item you are interested in and compare it to the one being sold.
4.Look for overly polished bright finishes that would indicate a platinum rhodium finish.
5.All Tiffany’s jewelry is stamped and marked somewhere on every piece. Compare the markings on the piece being sold to make sure they match the pictures on the Tiffany’s web site. Or if you can’t find a signature to compare it to there, call a Tiffany’s retailer and ask them what the markings should look like and where they should be located. Do not be fooled by someone who says that they have an authentic’unsigned’ Tiffany & Co piece of jewelry.’
6.Keep in mind that you run a greater risk of purchasing a replica if you are buying sterling silver.
7.If it sounds too good to be true, then know that it probably is.
After the Global Financial Crisis, we think the economic questions more. How to save our money is the first thing. The famous brand stores are lossing their customers, because the money is lossing. But if your best friend or your girlfriend have a birthday party, how to choose gifts? Which is good? Go to the famous brand store is too expensive,is there any other way? Yeah! Buy this online store! You can save a lot money.

This is a good way to save money. My friends all choose this way.last week, my college classmate buy a piece of tiffany jewelry online store. So I find it’s a good way to earn money without cost, just online. I can sell Tiffany jewelry as tiffany bracelets, tiffany bangles, tiffany charms. It’s a good idear. You also can try!
Q: I have a piece of tiffany jewelry in silver and like to wear silver rings, but something funny happens, they bend from circular to an oval overnight. What's happening?
A: It will happen with any jewlery, regardless of the type of metal. The warmth of the hand has a little to do with it. It's just general use of your hand. Yes, silver is a more malable metal and you will notice it sooner, but gold will bend too. It takes the shape of your finger. Mens rings are made of 10k because that is a more durable form of gold while most womens rings are 14k. In other countries, 18k is used which is even more delicate. Anyway, it happens to all rings.

Q: I have a piece of tiffany bracelet,like it so much and wear it anytime. Will it get ruined if I wear it in the shower or wash my hands with it?
A: I wear mine all the time(shower/swim/wash hands) and just "polish" it with silver cleaner once a month. After 13 yrs it still looks darn good. Silver will tarnish and in my experience it tarnishes faster sitting in a jewelry box or on a dresser.

Q: My tiffany bangle was weared too long,it tarnished.How to polish silver?
A: The best way to polish silver is with Tarnex (check the spelling). Real silver oxidizes and you need to reverse that reaction with a chemical. Yes, you can do it by head. But you're going to get carpal tunnel syndrome. Toothpaste that doesn't have the grit stuff in it will work. Work it in with a toothbrush and take it off with a rag and light soapy water. By the time you have done that you will have paid for the bottle of Tarnex. It may be sold under a different name now, but it should be on the web somewhere. It's worth your money and time. If you get really stuck, just go to a coin store and get coin cleaner. You'll be okay.My Tiffany jewellery charm was polished by this way.
