Tiffany Somerset Bangle

[nycgirl79]

Hi everyone. I apologize for posting this in the general forum, but the Authentication thread doesn't seem to get much traffic...

I'm guessing that it's fake, but I really don't know anything about Tiffany's jewelry - so I'm hoping that someone here can help me out. I really really appreciate it!
Thanks so much.

Here is the link to the bracelet on T&Co.

The bracelet that's in my possession

It looks real, but you can always take it to your nearest Tiffany's to have the complimentary polish, and they might pipe up if it is a fake. I have the same bracelet, let me go take a look at it and I will get back to you. Where did you buy this bracelet?

I think they're now charging for the complimentary polish.

Thanks for the info!

Darkangel - I would so appreciate it, thank you!! The bracelet belonged to my Mother-in-law.

They do charge, but they clean and polish the way you cannot do it yourself at home with the silver polish and a cloth... I think it is $15.

I have taken pics and I am waiting for them to upload!

Thank you so much for the pictures, DarkAngel! But comparing the photos of your bracelet to the one I have, I do not think mine is real!
Thanks so much for your help - I really appreciate it! ~Li

I am sorry to hear yours is not real, OP. Tiffany is copied alot, sometimes it is hard to find the real ones from the fake ones.

Also, keep in mind that Tiffany changes their jewelry in a small way every so often.
I'd take it in just to be sure. You don't want to toss something that might be real!

ITA. Definitely bring it in to be certain. Most jewelers change their designs and markings slightly over the years.

Very good point, ladies!
I'll stop by the 57th street location when I have a chance. I'm just concerned that they'll reaffirm my suspicions and I'll feel like a total moron! I HATE fakes, and always make a conscious effort to avoid them at all costs.
Thanks so much again for all of your help - I am so grateful for all the fabulous people on this forum!
