In celebration of the 50th anniversary of Elsa Peretti’s iconic arrival at Tiffany & Co. in September 1974, the luxury jewellery house is paying tribute to one of its most visionary designers. Peretti, whose organic, sensual designs revolutionised the industry, is being honoured throughout the year with special anniversary collections that embody her craftsmanship and artistic legacy.
Anthony Ledru, President and CEO of Tiffany & Co., highlights the importance of this milestone: "Elsa Peretti’s 50th anniversary at Tiffany & Co. is a remarkable testament to the House’s heritage of collaborating with the world’s greatest artists. Her groundbreaking designs reshaped Tiffany’s history and continue to inspire today."
Peretti’s unique approach to jewellery design, often inspired by nature and organic forms, led to the creation of some of Tiffany & Co.’s most iconic collections. Her designs—such as Bone, Diamonds by the Yard®, Open Heart, Bean® design, Bottle, and Snake—became instant classics and remain as relevant now as when they were first introduced. Her influence not only transformed jewellery but also empowered women, marking a cultural shift where women began buying jewellery for themselves rather than waiting to receive it as gifts.
To honour Peretti’s contributions, Tiffany & Co. is launching a series of limited-edition designs throughout 2024 and into 2025. These special creations will feature reissued versions of some of Peretti’s most beloved icons. Highlights include new Bone and Split rings inspired by her famous cuff designs, along with rare Bone cuffs adorned with pavé diamonds, rubies, and hand-carved cabochon stones. Other standout pieces include limited-edition Mesh styles set with tanzanites, rubellites, emeralds, and diamonds, as well as bold Cabochon and Fancy Color rings. The collection will also feature updated versions of Peretti’s celebrated Open Heart, Starfish, Bean®, Scorpion, and Amapola designs, with dramatic Snake and High Tide earrings, and statement Diamonds by the Yard® necklaces.
The Elsa Peretti 50th Anniversary collection showcases the timeless appeal of her work, continuing to captivate new generations of jewellery lovers. These limited-edition designs will be available at select Tiffany & Co. stores globally and online at Tiffany.com.
As Tiffany & Co. marks this significant milestone, it is a testament to Peretti’s enduring legacy as one of the most influential forces in jewellery design. Her creations remain as captivating today as they were 50 years ago, a symbol of the House’s dedication to innovative craftsmanship and creative excellence.
