I honestly still love Tiffany. I am a bit disappointed that Tiffany has spread out more, for example, my local mall has one now! It used to be that my boyfriend and I would make a special trip to Tiffany's in San Francisco, and it was much fun. Of course we still go to the one in SF, and I have to say that if I need a "stare at Tiffany for awhile" fix, it sure is convenient to pop into my car and zip over to the mall (it is actually outside the mall, but it is still connected to the mall.).
I will always love Tiffny because it is an iconic American brand, and my mother and I have always shared a love of all things Tiffany, not just their silver jewelry. Though I have to say, that Tiffany still has the nicest silver jewelry.
 
I used to be in love with Tiffany's and I have the requisite pieces that every BAP at my undergrad had: a Return to Tiffany bracelet, and an 1837 necklace.

Over the years though my appreciation for Tiffany has declined. I think the prices are too high and I think the jewelry there is too accessible. I can walk down the street on any given day and see about fifty Return to Tiffany pieces. When I go to Tiffany's with friends who want to browse the store is always packed with people dying to buy the typical Tiffany jewelry. That is a major turnoff for me. I prefer more private jewelers who will design more unique pieces. When I want to go to a high end jeweler I will go to Cartier or Van Cleef and Arpel. I don't think that Van Cleef is overpriced, but that is my opinion.

However, I will always love that Tiffany Blue!!! Such a beautiful color.

I agree with this. DF bought me my one and only Tiffany silver piece when I was 19 and he was 21. We were both broke college students and it was a such a big deal to me that he spent his salary as a busboy to buy me the necklace for my birthday! I wore that necklace every day! Over time though, I decided I really do not like silver jewelry, and the silver at Tiffany is way too overpriced.
Tiffany fine jewelry is lovely but I always find designs I prefer elsewhere. My e-ring is Tiffany which I picked purely on aesthetics (to me, you can not beat their classic 6-prong knife-edge setting, which is exactly what I wanted). DF also bought me a pair of diamond and platinum huggies from there, which I love for every day wear. Besides an upgrade in 5 years or so, I think we will not be purchasing any more jewelry from Tiffany. Both DF and I found that we prefer the designs and service at Harry Winston far more. The quality and designs are out of this world!
 
I just double-checked my boxes and they are unmarked. . .but I swear I saw something like "made in Thailand" somewhere. . .:confused1: I'll keep looking.

As for their jewelry, I have a few pieces marked "made in Spain" whereas the other pieces are unmarked. Maybe the ones that are unmarked are made in the USA? When I saw that some of my jewelry and accessories were made in Spain, I just assumed the rest were also made in Spain but I could be completely wrong.
 
I have the traditional Tiffany 6 prong solitaire and am the first to admit that that particular piece is very overpriced. However, I LOL at the person that compared Tiffany to Coach. Sure, Tiffany has their entry level pieces which every high schooler wears, but they also have some very equisitely designed jewelry that unfortunately is way out of my price range ($100K and up).
 
Yes! That is it! I wanted some info on the gold version of that necklace, I just bought one used (haven't recieved it yet) and wanted to make sure it's authentic.
I believe it is, the seller did offer to take it back if I was told it wasn't authentic.
Any info would be helpful, like did it come in gold, and well any info would be very helpful really!
 
I have a beautiful Tiffany Silver Bead Necklace. It is the 10mm one (not the one with the graduated beads). I have only had it for maybe 3 months and have no bothered to clean it. Today, I noticed what looked like a green speck of dirt on it. Thinking nothing of it, I scarped it off with my fingernail..and a piece of the silver enamel along with it!

I thought this thing was supposed to be made of silver through out? Granted the inner silver probably would look different..but I was NOT expecting the top layer to just scrape off!

Now the bead has a little speck on it that looks as if I burned a hole into its outer layer. I am very displeased. Anyone else have this experience.

Please tell me that I am overreacting and I will be able to get rid of this "scrape" with silver cleaner. I expected more from Tiffany :(
