Tiffany necklace equivalent

63 replies

Ladies,

Since I have seen tiffany hardwear medium link necklace, I can't sleep at night. (https://www.tiffany.co.uk/jewelry/necklaces-pendants/tiffany-hardwear-medium-link-necklace-70751127/)

I love it- it is everything that I was looking for, but I am not going to get it (obviously, unless it on 90% sale)

I was looking for an equivalent, but I am torn;
a) I would never buy fake designer bags or clothing - is buying stolen jewelry different?
b) does getting something for around 300/500 pounds mean that the quality will be disappointing? It's a chunky necklace, and I want it in yellow gold

Does anyone have the original one or anything similar?
Any advice on where to buy something like this?

The links are not 'open' due to cheap manufacturing. They are hinged. They hinge open and allow you to lengthen and shorten the chain. Christ. They are nit so bad that they would have screamingly bad design like huge open links

Visually they look very poor!

They are hinged to add charms. It says that in the link. The focus is not really on the chain, but on the overall look with charms. The charms are the “thing”.

Ah expensive Pandora then!

Actually I just looked up their second hand values on ebay. About £200 which is more realistic for gold plated fashion jewellery. I didn’t look up the actual sold prices but there are plenty available

Maybe to you. I have one and I feel it looks incredible, even compared to my Tiffany, Hoku etc.

God, @LadyPoison you sound like a total arsehole 🤣

@cactidream If you like your current chain you have found I would ask around and have it gold plated.
I had a yellow gold ring rhodium plated at a local jeweller for about £20.

No I make jewellery for a living.

I know quality from cheap fashion jewellery being sold at a high price!

Still if you like it then it's your money

They don't at all. I have it in silver. I also have several pieces from Tiffany in hold and silver and from Bulgari, Cartier and David Morris. I say this to explain that I have a lot of jewellery at different price points. The MV link with the hinged links looks great. I can swap the bracelet portion in it out making the necklace longer or shorter. I don't use charms. It's a nice daytime easy piece. You may make jewellery but you are not the arbiter of what looks good. We may all think your jewellery looks rubbish.
