My husband bought me a pair of the Tiffany Lace PT/Aquamarine earrings for my birthday about 10 years ago. At the time, I coveted the coordinating necklace, but as we were building a new home, it was not an option. Birthday is approaching and he asked what I would like. Last weekend I tried on a couple of VCA items/ear clips to coordinate with my VCA MOP 20 motif necklace, but I cannot decide--too many options (although the pave frivole ear clips are stunning!)

The other day I stumbled upon a listing for the Lace necklace (after seeing pics here of Legacy Aquamarine rings!). I hadn't thought about the necklace in many years, but seeing it again, I find I'm still very attracted to it. I wear the earrings often and a pendant my jeweler made to coordinate with them is my "everyday" necklace. Apparently the Lace design has been retired.

The seller does not normally sell jewelry, and the listing description is brief. I would dearly appreciate it if someone could authenticate this, or advise me if there's anything else I should ask the seller for in order to do that.

I think the necklace looks great but why has a motorbike seller got it? I would ask where he got it from. A little provenance is needed.

Sincerely appreciate your time and expertise.bloomsburymanor. I found it curious as well so I looked into the seller--he's a master mechanic and builds engines for professional racers in addition to his online parts business. My research indicates he's well-respected in that industry. Even so, I'll definitely ask about provenance if I decide to pursue it further. (Having trouble deciding between this piece and a pair of VCA pave diamond frivole earrings I tried on at the SCP boutique last weekend.)

Hello! I've lurked on these forums to get a sense of what's out there and need some help with a Cartier trinity ring that I've just won and received on Ebay...the ring is in beautiful condition, no papers though. I went to the Cartier store today and the SA says that the identification number cannot be found on his computer, so it could have been sold outside the US.

I am just wondering about these divots that are in all 3 bands' exterior. The SA couldn't see anything like a scratch, thought maybe it is an old stamp that got polished away over time, as this is an older model?

Picture #3 and #6 show it on the silver - looks like a water mark but won't go away.

Am also uploading a picture that shows the mark on the silver and gold band.

Any help or thoughts on authenticity would be appreciated - I have about a week to return!

Thanks!!
Anna
