Nice, I should check it out! My fave T store so far is the one in Westport CT. The lady was super nice, polite and sounded really genuine in the advice she gave me. If I make a big purchase I want to wait till I go back to her store so she can get the commission.

Very nice. I worry about their diamond products after reading this page though:

What do you guys think?

From what I read, most of those complaints were not for their diamond products. Lots were were for silver tarnishing, bad customer service, or not allowing exchanges. I think I read two that related to diamonds. Considering how many stores they have, that's actually amazing.

My local Tiffs is the Wall st. store.
Some of the reps at that location can definitely use a course in manners. Others though are just very concise, like the gentleman my husband favors. I myself have had a not so pleasant experience with an exchange I needed to do. But all in all, I'd say they're very professional, and they sell quality products, at least their gold and platinum.

Six, maybe seven years ago I bought my husband a silver compass from their 1837 collection. That thing tarnished within a few days. I've never seen silver tarnish that fast. I don't remember if I returned it or not, or if it's lying in a box somewhere, but that was my one and only experience with their silver, and it was terrible.

I have had great success with toothpaste to clean silver. Just use the one without micro beads in it to avoid scratches, and your hands (no cloth or brush). My badly tarnished Tiffany and non Tiffany silver came back whiter than white.

I know some people use Windex because of the ammonia it contains. I haven't tried it. I have tried the baking soda and tin foil in boiling water trick as well as other tricks, but so far the toothpaste one has been the most efficient.

I went into a T store the next day with my freshly cleaned bracelet and it was as white as the one I tried on.

So don't let tarnish deter you from buying Tiffany silver if you like it! Cleaning it with toothpaste takes no longer than thoroughly washing your hands!

I may try that- have to find the compass first. It really is a shame about the tarnish on such a pretty piece.

Just cleaned my cuffs in my hotel room with toothpaste and the Pomelato ring is brand new. Cuffs are 10 yrs old. I rarely buy silver these days the Pomelato is the first one I buy since 2008. Sorry for the offtopic. Put a screenshot as file is too big and no time to resize it.

Amazing, I am so happy for you! The toothpaste trick beats all the other tricks for silver doesn't it? Forget about harsh chemicals or mediocre in store service xD just do it better yourself in 20 seconds for free lmao!!!

Very pretty stuff you're wearing by the way!
