Milan Duomo Tiffany Store Opening Windows, 2017 I’ve always been drawn to the theatrical use of forced perspective in window displays. For these opening windows in Milan, the soaring Gothic spires of the Duomo became inspiration and framework — their dramatic skyward reach create a striking setting for the brilliance of Tiffany diamonds suspended against the lace-like roof. Constructed of a multitude of stacked layers of illustration board and Tiffany Blue Box paper, the final scene announced Tiffany’s arrival in the Piazza del Duomo. Special thanks to @smalfi who assembled the complex elements sent from the New York team.

The Tiffany windows that celebrate The Devil Wears Prada 2 incorporate the billowing silk-draped “2” from the initial film trailer. The concept for these windows was to play off the “cerulean” theme but reference Tiffany Blue, our beloved hue that has adorned our little boxes since the 19th Century. The billowing fabric required modeling, finish experimentation, and intense reworking (sorry guys!) to emulate the weightless textile that still allows the viewer to read the “2” underneath. Like the filming of Breakfast at Tiffany’s in 1960, it was necessary to film while the store was closed in order to capture the various moments in the film that take place in the new Tiffany Monte Napoleone store in Milan. @tiffanyandco #devilwearsprada2 @disney @20thcenturystudios @createology.la @kathrynvanderveen @don.gross @martindennislynch @napoleon_nm

Window art at Tiffany is typically inspired by our dazzling collections and fabulous high jewelry offering but once in a blue moon, we have the opportunity to show up in popular culture with special cinematic moments that intertwine with Tiffany & Co. in motion pictures. This is the case with The Devil Wears Prada 2 and thanks once more to the ever-brilliant @kathrynvanderveen , we had the opportunity to partner with Disney/20th Century Studios for this film. A special thanks to director David Frankel for dreaming up a memorable scene that features a special high jewelry moment in the new Tiffany Monte Napoleone store in Milan. @tiffanyandco #devilwearsprada2 @disney @20thcenturystudios @don.gross @napoleon_nm @createology.la

It was such a wondrous treat to witness the New Group’s production of Elmer L. Rice’s prophetic The Adding Machine, directed by Scott Elliott. Jennifer Tilly is incredibly moving in her role as Mrs. Zero alongside the stellar cast and production. Until May 17 at the Theatre at St. Clement’s. Many thanks to @frankbeverett for organizing and for the ever-fabulous @jennifertilly for joining us after the show! A real New York night!

Still mesmerized by the kaleidoscopic beauty of these unique spring birds… (and that fire opal!) @tiffanyandco #newyork #bluebookhighjewelry 2026 by @nathalie.verdeille ✨ #anthonyledru @daveyac 🩵

Two “Blooming Daisy” brooches by Jean Schlumberger contrast with the window collaboration at the Tiffany Landmark featuring extraordinary woven works by famed Campana Studio. The Tiffany windows have long featured contemporary artists’ works as settings for our extraordinary jewels, featuring the likes of Jasper Johns and Robert Rauschenberg, Andy Warhol and many others. For this year’s Tiffany Blue Book theme, Hidden Garden, the Campana Studio continue in that rich history, providing their signature craftsmanship and innovative material integration as a contemporary context for our latest high jewelry masterpieces. @tiffanyandco @estudiocampana @humberto_campana @waldickjatoba

Jasmine Necklace  Jean Schlumberger for Tiffany & Co. 
Gold, platinum, colored sapphires, diamonds 
1962–63 
Collection of Rachel “Bunny” Lambert Mellon (1910–2014) 
The Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, 2015.77    The Jasmine necklace stands among the most iconic pieces Schlumberger created for Tiffany & Co. Over several decades, the company patiently assembled an extraordinary group of sapphires in a range of colors, and in 1958 Schlumberger began to consider their setting. He produced a final design that evokes a tangle of jasmine branches encircling the gemstones, which Tiffany artisans realized in 1961–62. Window display designer Gene Moore featured the necklace on several occasions in the windows of the New York Landmark. Paul Mellon acquired the necklace in December 1966 as a Christmas gift for his wife.  Text: @sylvain.cordier.parisrichmond @vmfamuseum @tiffanyandco

Blue Book 2026 Windows The Tiffany Landmark, New York Campana Studio In keeping with Tiffany & Co.’s longstanding dialogue with visionary artists, the Blue Book 2026 window installations at Tiffany Landmark introduce a collaboration with Campana Studio. Conceived and realized in São Paulo, Brazil, the installations take the form of monumental, handwoven structures—organic in silhouette and intricate in construction—crafted by the studio’s team of Brazilian artisans and brought to life in New York. “For the window displays, we created delicate, intricate pieces rich in detail, that reflect the preciousness of Tiffany’s jewelry and the refinement of their craftsmanship” notes studio co-founder Umberto Campana. “Naturally, we brought the Campana signature into the project, sculpting dreamlike and elegant forms and combining natural materials. Traditional craft techniques are interwoven throughout, collaborating with highly skilled artisans, celebrating a shared dedication to materiality, innovation and excellence.” Created in celebration of the 2026 Tiffany Blue Book collection, Hidden Garden, each sculptural environment frames contemporary high jewelry within an immersive landscape that recalls the beautiful baskets collected by Bunny Mellon, long-standing friend and great patron of Jean Schlumberger. @tiffanyandco @estudiocampana @humberto_campana @waldickjatoba

One of two thorn-themed brooches that Jean Schlumberger designed for Millicent Rogers, according to records in The Tiffany Archives, Rogers provided this almost-65-carat morganite stone— now the largest example of morganite in the Tiffany & Co. Archives collection—and had him create the custom setting. Former director of the Jean Schlumberger salon at Tiffany & Co., Pierce MacGuire, explains that the extraordinary gemstone was a gift from Rogers’ mother, philanthropist and collector, Mary Benjamin Rogers. In addition to the spiritual iconography of the radial spikes, this version features tattered ribbons or flags tied to its arms, evoking the esoteric spirit of Surrealist paintings.

This 1960 necklace—originally titled Hedges and Flowers, and later renamed Hedges and Rows—is among the most celebrated creations by Jean Schlumberger. This is the original version of the necklace, featuring a halo of 22 yellow sapphires and 13 turquoises arranged in a construction that recalls the organization of a formal garden hedgerow. Never bound to strict realism, Schlumberger imagined this creation as a rhythmic composition of stylized flora and fauna. While the structure is broadly symmetrical, each individual element varies: outstretched tendrils, twisting blossoms, and irregular growth create a lively sense of movement and vitality, transforming a formal garden motif into a timeless milestone of high jewelry at Tiffany & Co. @tiffanyandco #TheTiffanyArchives

The radial design of this magnificent brooch is one of two thorn-themed designs Jean Schlumberger created for the great Millicent Rogers, heiress to the Standard Oil fortune and one of Schlumberger’s earliest patrons. The brooch features a striking 47-carat sapphire at its center like the precious sea urchin protected by pointed spines or a consecrated host housed within a monstrance or sacred religious vessel.
