Hello there, i have a few questions concerned to Tiffany's products and services. And before i posted this thread i have already done a few research, but just wanted to make sure i got the right information.
- I've had my eyes on the T square bangle forever, but they do not have it in any but Silver and Gold. I personally don't look good in Gold, as it is falling out of my budget. Therefore, Sterling Silver is my only option. Any one here please share your opinion about this bracelet in Silver material with me? How did it come out after years? Did you have to clean it constantly? How are the scratches holding up ( i hate scratches on my jewelry, so all of mine are being kept in the very good condition)
- For resizing, I actually are having my eyes on some of the preloved, like engagement ring and T rings as well as Atlas rings, are they re-sizable? Some i saw on the internet with the very good conditions, and why not purchasing pre-loved with better prices. Also, i noticed there are few pieces they had to put the ball sizes inside the rings, because i guess they are not re-sizable? I called Tiffany customer service for this sizing question, some they prefer me to bring the products in store, but i need to know if they're re-sizable before i make a purchase.
- And for Platinum, Gold, White Gold of Tiffany, how did they come out after cleaning and polishing by Tiffany's? I saw some pieces in White Gold and Platinum, look pretty mashed up with scratches, but their prices are affordable. So i wonder how your Tiffany's pieces turned out after polishing service?
I know I came up with so many questions, but I hope i could hear any opinions from you guys.
Much love!

I've had the silver T square for years, probably 5 or so. It scratches up quite a bit and yes, you have to clean it fairly often.

Would you mind taking its pictures so I can see how it turned out, please?
Idk but it’s my problem that I want to keep my pieces (jewelry, bags) as new as possible. And does it look beaten up if you don’t polish for months? I just love love love the t square but I really hate the fact that it has so many knock-off and I don’t want my future one looks like one? Did you ever get it polished, and how did it turn out after polishing?
Btw, thank you very much for answering my question.

I can take a photo when I get home, but if you want something that looks as new as possible, I wouldn't recommend it. I've had it polished twice and it looks great but it gets scuffed back up again quickly.

Thank you, dear. I will keep it in mind.
How about Tiffany’s platinum and gold. Are they the same? Most people recommend me to get white gold/ gold instead.
And I saw so many 18k gold pieces with great prices (but they also look beaten up as well), so I wonder with gold and platinum could they be restore brand-new look after polishing.

I have the T square in 18k yellow gold and it's simply amazing, even after all these years (about 5 years or so). I strongly don't recommend buying from a source outside of Tiffany & Co... the best thing you can do, is try on in store... have them write down the size that fits you on their card... then search for that size only. As far as the items you mention, like the T square bangle, T ring, etc... there is NO way to have them re-sized. So make sure you know your size. Also, prepare for scratching... they scratch easily and often, but doesn't ruin the look. Tiffany & Co can buff it out, but it will scratch again front, sides and back. As far as polishing, the yellow gold looks the best when polishing using cloth, fluid or having Tiffany & Co polish in house and buff out scratches, even taking a shower with it on... it will look brand new... not all silver pieces come out looking brand new... it will look better, but not brand new, especially if imprinted with 'Tiffany & Co' on it, like the 'Return to Tiffany' collection
At one time they had a black T square bangle and it was reasonably priced... It's no longer on their website, but still might be in store or possible to find in the secondary market. Good luck !

Thank you Jim, for giving me the information. So far as I know, they still have the black metal t square on their site and the price is bit far from sterling silver ( idk if that’s the one you’re talking about)
And I will keep in mind Atlas and T ring cannot be sizing.
Thank you dear.

Yes htduy89, that is the one... it's really hot in person... a good get if you don't do the silver T Block. Go into Tiffany & Co and try it on and write down the sizes you need for wrist and fingers. Happy shopping !

I tried silver square bangle in size S and it was perfect, for the finger ring I wear 4.5 ( for t square ring, but atlas I wear 5 because of the spaces), and I feel like I cannot stack too much because I will look ridiculously girly lol

Great !!! I told ya. Now you can shop secondary market for the best looking, best priced one in your size and can guarantee fit and not worry about re-sizing. I know you wanted to walk out of Tiffany & Co with your items though... lol. Happy shopping !
