Tiffany & Co.
What girl wouldn’t love a piece of Tiffany jewelry? Whether it is an intricate Tiffany ring, delicate chain necklace with pink sapphires, or signature white gold – Return to Tiffany – heart charm and bracelet, it is a lucky lady who is given the patented Tiffany blue box with white ribbon tied around it. But these designs are not only for women. Tiffany & Co. also features men’s watches, money clips and wedding bands, each unique and special in their own way. The company has also branched into fragrance, leather goods and eyewear, making it a one-stop-shop for all luxury accessories (though it will undoubtedly forever be known as a woman’s playground).
Since 1837, Tiffany & Co. has been synonymous with groundbreaking designs, overwhelming elegance and glamour. Originally a stationary store, the company’s emphasis on jewelry began in the 1850s when control shifted to Charles Tiffany. Since that time, they have opened stores in most all of the top cities worldwide and been worn by members of the notorious Astor, Vanderbilt and Hutton families. Recognizable stars such as Diana Ross and Blake Lively have also adorned themselves in Tiffany & Co. jewelry, and story has it that even Abraham Lincoln purchased a piece or two.
Tiffany & Co. offers a wedding registry and occasional free-of-charge classes on how to design the perfect wedding ring. They have not completely let go of their stationary past. After registering for china and silver, couples are able to peruse the custom-stationary, choosing their perfect wedding invitations and thank-you cards from the luxurious samples.
