Hi all,
Need help and advice on this deal that I just made - traded my authentic T&Co earrings for a Return To Tiffany Round Tag bracelet which has raised a couple of red flags in my head upon inspecting it (please see attached images):
- Font seems to be very cluttered on front of tag
- Back of tag is completely devoid of any stamp (correct me if i'm wrong but there should be a "T&Co 925" copyright stamp somewhere?)
- Links are not soldered together but rather are pinched together so you can see the cuts in the links
- Lobster clasp has "925" stamped on the clasp itself but the clasp has a line running through it and there is a weird additional small silver globule where the catch is (refer to attached pics)
- Box and dustbag seem original as they look exactly like all my other Tiffany jewellery that were purchased at the stores
Hoping against odds as the dealer seemed to have good feedback (and she even has a young kid with her -.-) against my better judgement but I guess I just wanted some affirmation before confronting her about it.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
I think your suspicions are valid for all the reasons above. I'm not a Tiffany expert, but am an avid collector of their silver jewelry. The links are never pinched on their bracelets.
