PeacefulMommy-- I think the CBTY may be a better option... The turquoise one is particularly pretty and turquoise is a stone that symbolizes protection and good fortune in many cultures. :) It's more substantial that the diamond one (and cheaper too maybe? I can't remember). Let us know what you choose!

That's a great idea :) There is a pink sapphire 0.08 that is less expensive than the diamond one, and looks very feminine...

Hey PM - that is interesting. I got the double mini blue for myself for xmas and I have just worn a few times and the heart has become cloudy. tried polishing with the silver cloth, not much help. I def want the DBTY next!

Interesting!

The double tags I purchased for her were both sterling silver - no enamel or stones - so I'm assuming that she meant "tarnished" and not "rusty". (If she really means rusty, I'll be taking up the problem directly with Tiffany & Co.!!) I've asked her to send me a photo of her tag necklace so that I can assess the situation, but you know 18/19 year-olds... They don't get around to doing anything you ask of them.

I was working on the theory that the tag necklace may or may not polish clean, but that if I purchase her something new and she cares for it properly right from the beginning... it will hopefully last a lifetime this time around!

Just wanted to add my two pennies in here too: I own the double mini heart tag with enamel blue heart as well and in addition to the scratches, there's a small bit of clouding on the RTT mini tags on its front top right hand side and back top area.

I've tried polishing it to no avail, and I haven't worn this piece as often as some of my other RTT tag pieces. I'd try a dip except I don't want to damage the pretty blue enamel.

Also, back on topic to DBTY - it seems diamond specs are not included for the collection on the UK website. I click on a carat size to add and it goes straight into my basket. For the much more expensive pieces (eg. platinum), I'm told to call customer services. Perhaps it's something I need query about in person? If so, I'd better wait for all this Xmas and Valentines day hoo-ha to die down (plus it gives me time to save more funds... three bangles are not cheap, but I am not allowed to wear them yet!).

Thank you for that! I will certainly look into the CBTY, too. Her favorite color is pink, so maybe I can find a pink stone instead of the diamond for a similar price?

I don't think the turquoise is quite her style... But it is a lovely thought and I enjoy turquoise! :graucho: Lapis is also lovely.

I'll spend some more time browsing. I still have a few days to get it by Christmas!

Hey Peaceful, if your sis likes pink, you can consider getting her the Tiffany color-by-the-yard necklace in pink sapphire?

I think the price is quite reasonable and it looks really pretty. I believe i saw a photo of another TPFer wearing it before. Maybe you can find some modelling shots if you do a search. TBH i won't mind getting one of these myself! : p

Thanks for that suggestion! It's only $25 more than the 0.03ct DBTY, but the CBTY pink sapphire is 0.08ct... so it's certainly worth the small difference! I'll definitely keep this one in mind. :smile1: Thanks again!

Quite strange that it's just this piece with the issue. None of my other Tiffany necklaces have this problem, including the circle notes alphabet pendent and RRT heart... Would sweat really cause silver cloudiness? I don't normally swear on my chest anyway (as indelicate as this topic is, lol) - the 16 inch chain really does keep the tags away from danger!

I had abit of clouding on my RTT heart small size but it seems to have disappeared for now. Maybe skin reacts to it? My mini hearts is on 18 inches. so can move around abit..

I recently bought a 0.05 carat yellow gold dbty style (not tiffany) but am having second thoughts on the Diamond size. I'm trying to decide if I should get the 0.08 instead. However I plan to get s bigger size in the future to layer with (maybe 0.12 ish) so not sure if it would look better with the bigger size difference (layered with the one I have now) or is it too insubstantial? Any suggestions or opinions would be appreciated!
