The Most Iconic Tiffany Jewelry Pieces and Their Stories

For over 180 years, Tiffany & Co. has stood out in the world of fine jewelry. Founded in 1837 by Charles Lewis Tiffany, the brand quickly established itself as a leader in innovative design and exceptional craftsmanship. Known for its signature Tiffany Blue Box, the brand has become synonymous with high-quality jewelry that marks life's most precious moments. Let’s take a look at some of the most iconic pieces of Tiffany’s jewelry.

The Tiffany Diamond

One of the most well known pieces in Tiffany’s jewelry collection is the Tiffany Diamond. This radiant yellow diamond is one of the largest and most famous fancy yellow diamonds in the world. Unearthed in South Africa in 1877, the 287.42-carat rough stone was cut to 128.54 carats, showcasing Tiffany's commitment to beauty over size. The diamond has been set in only a few designs throughout its history, most notably in Jean Schlumberger’s Ribbon Rosette necklace (famously worn by Audrey Hepburn) and later in the Bird on a Rock brooch.

Return to Tiffany

The Return to Tiffany collection is another cornerstone of Tiffany's iconic status. Inspired by a key ring from 1966, the collection features the legendary heart tag bracelet, available in sterling silver and 18k gold.

The Tiffany Knot

Inspired by an archival bow design from 1889, each piece in this collection symbolizes life's enduring ties. The intricate craftsmanship and elegant design make the Tiffany Knot collection a modern icon, representing love and unity with each twist and turn of precious metal. The revival of the Tiffany Knot into a modern collection that is just as beloved as it was in the late 1800s shows the enduring legacy of this brand.

The Impact of Breakfast at Tiffany’s

No discussion of Tiffany & Co. would be complete without mentioning the influence of the classic film "Breakfast at Tiffany's." Starring Audrey Hepburn, the movie immortalized the brand's flagship store on New York City's Fifth Avenue. The opening scene, featuring Hepburn's character Holly Golightly gazing into Tiffany's windows, created an indelible association between the brand and timeless sophistication.

Timeless Elegance and Lasting Value
