He also points out that exotic
pieces are rare and expensive,
“but, the prices are usually justi

He also advises collectors to be

If you see a piece marked
Tiffany & Co., along with
another silver makers name
or hallmark, such as Gor
ham, this shows Tiffany to
be the retailer, not the
maker.

the original intent,” he ad
