Tiffany & Co.
Tiffany & Co. is one of the most prominent purveyors of luxury goods in the United States, and has long been an important arbiter of style in the design of diamond engagement rings. A young Franklin Delano Roosevelt proposed to his future wife, Eleanor, with a Tiffany ring in 1904. Vanderbilts, Whitneys, Astors and members of the Russian imperial family all wore Tiffany & Co. jewels. And Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis preferred Tiffany china for state dinners at the White House.
Although synonymous with luxury today, the firm started out rather modestly. Charles Lewis Tiffany and John B. Young founded it in Connecticut as a “stationery and fancy goods emporium” in 1837, at a time when European imports still dominated the nascent American luxury market. In 1853, Charles Tiffany — who in 1845 had launched the company’s famed catalog, the Blue Book, and with it, the firm’s signature robin’s-egg blue, which he chose for the cover — shifted the focus to fine jewelry. In 1868, Tiffany & Co. gained international recognition when it became the first U.S. firm to win an award for excellence in silverware at the Exposition Universelle in Paris. From then on, it belonged to the pantheon of American luxury brands.
At the start of the Gilded Age, in 1870, Tiffany & Co. opened its flagship store, described as a "palace of jewels" by the New York Times, at 15 Union Square West in Manhattan. Throughout this period, its designs for silver tableware, ceremonial silver, flatware and jewelry were highly sought-after indicators of status and taste. They also won the firm numerous accolades, including the grand prize for silverware at the Paris Exposition of 1878. Among the firm’s glittering creations from this time are masterworks of Art Nouveau jewelry, such as this delicate aquamarine necklace and this lavish plique-à-jour peridot and gold necklace, both circa 1900.
When Charles Lewis Tiffany died, in 1902, his son Louis Comfort Tiffany became the firm’s design director. Under his leadership, the Tiffany silver studio was a de facto design school for apprentice silversmiths, who worked alongside head artisan Edward C. Moore. The firm produced distinctive objects inspired by Japanese art and design, North American plants and flowers, and Native American patterns and crafts, adding aesthetic diversity to Tiffany & Co.’s distinguished repertoire.
Tiffany is also closely associated with diamonds, even lending its name to one particularly rare and exceptional yellow stone. The firm bought the Tiffany diamond in its raw state from the Kimberley mines of South Africa in 1878. Cut to create a 128.54-carat gem with an unprecedented 82 facets, it is one of the most spectacular examples of a yellow diamond in the world. In a broader sense, Tiffany & Co. helped put diamonds on the map in 1886 by introducing the American marketplace to the solitaire diamond design, which is still among the most popular engagement-ring styles. The trademark Tiffany® Setting raises the stone above the band on six prongs, allowing its facets to catch the light. A lovely recent example is this circa-2000 platinum engagement ring. Displaying a different design and aesthetic (but equally chic) is this exquisite diamond and ruby ring from the 1930s.

$2,709 Sale Price30% OffFree Shipping - Blue 15.62 Carat Star Sapphire Cabochon Platinum Ring with .90 Carats of DiamondBy Martha Richter Ltd.Located in Lake Bluff, ILLet me introduce myself to this one-of-a-kind melding of art and nature. In the early 1980’s. As a gemologist and designer craftsman, I cast a net to the nation’s gem dealers, searching for an extraordinary, rich blue, large, star sapphire cabochon for my personal use. I wished to turn this exciting gem into a signature piece that I would wear for advertising and on special occasions as an example of my work, never planning to sell it. The stars were aligned when destiny presented me with this totally natural, stary gem which pulled at my heart strings. This 15.62 carat star sapphire has a lovely, distinct full six-legged star which (like all such stars) is best seen in sunlight or incandescent light. (Most LEDS won’t pick up the star.) I left the one dark natural sapphire crystal underneath the stone exposed, that proves it’s genuine but does not detract from above. There are no major flaws or cracks, just beauty. It took me several years (shoemaker’s children) of dreaming of potential designs as I worked through a number of potential designs and revisions. Following my sketches and seat-of-the-pants wax carving, this one-of-a-kind design evolved which allows the ring to sit back on the hand to prevent turning and makes the finger appear longer. I added a sweep of .90 carats of fiery princess cut F-G/VS diamonds to reflect the dome of the translucent cabochon and to protect it. This diamond quality if far above that used in normal production pieces but was for my own pleasure. I also added curves to the platinum to further reflect the smoothness of the gem. The result is an ergonomically designed, comfortable showpiece which can be worn all day as well as for special occasions. For over 40 years Martha Richter has exhibited her unique work in numerous states by participating in juried fine art fairs and American Council...Category
