A woman who was larger-than-life has touched everyone at Tiffany & Co. The relationships she created defined her. Elsa was not only a designer but a way of life.
A masterful artisan, Elsa was responsible for a revolution in the world of jewelry design. Her collections of organic, sensual forms have inspired generations. Elsa’s relationship with style and the natural world was profoundly personal and strongly reflected in her creations. Over the past nearly 50 years Elsa has created some of the most innovative jewelry and object designs in the world. Elsa explored nature with the acumen of a scientist and the vision of a sculptor.
Elsa had always been inspired by nature and lived her life dedicated to giving back to the world from which she drew so much inspiration. She believed that taking care of and protecting our planet is a duty of all of humanity, “We could do so much better. I’m trying to do something good.” Elsa said. As the president and founder of The Nando and Elsa Peretti Foundation dedicated to the memory of her father, Elsa was committed to supporting the environment, social welfare, human rights, as well as the preservation of arts and culture.
Elsa’s poetic designs and legacy will remain a constant inspiration for generations to come. Our hearts go out to her family, friends and family of artisans and craftspeople who realized her fantasies, she will be deeply missed by all of us at Tiffany & Co.

About Tiffany & C0.
In 1837, Charles Lewis Tiffany founded his company in New York City where his store was soon acclaimed as the palace of jewels for its exceptional gemstones. Since then, TIFFANY & CO. has become synonymous with elegance, innovative design, fine craftsmanship and creative excellence.

Jewelry connoisseurs around the world revere Tiffany & Co. for its signature elegance, craftsmanship and style. But it’s not only precious metals, superlative gemstones and age-old craftsmanship behind Tiffany’s singular reputation as a fine jeweler. The Tiffany & Co. development center that few know about is the company’s visionary Jewelry Design and Innovation Workshop in New York City, (JDIW for short).
The bustling creativity center, tucked away a mere few steps from Tiffany’s Fifth Avenue headquarters, brings time-honored jewelry-making techniques into the present. New and traditional tools are used at JDIW to transform Tiffany’s visions into tangible prototypes. While reducing product development times and increasing the number of unique expressions of each design, Tiffany can also better keep pace with emerging trends, boost speed to market and uphold its renowned tradition of innovation.
Inside the 17,000-square-foot open floor plan space, Dana Naberezny, the workshop’s Vice President, oversees day-to-day operations. She heads up an all-star team of expertly trained jewelers, CAD designers, engineers and quality-assurance experts that’s handpicked from different industries. Designers sit side by side with jewelers at the 18 benches lining the workshop’s prototype development room, a space dedicated to honoring and expanding upon Tiffany’s enduring legacy of innovation. “We have so much ingenuity in innovation and technical know-how at Tiffany,” says Dana. “But it was scattered across the company. So, the concept behind the workshop was to bring them together in a single place.”
Tiffany devised the workshop as a center for creative collaboration, a space where no idea is too risky and no design too avant-garde. Teams quickly coalesce into project pods for streamlined collaboration. Together, they experiment with gemstones and precious metals to bring a range of possibilities for new collections to life.
“Since its inception in 1837, Tiffany has remained at the forefront of innovative jewelry design and expert craftsmanship,” Dana says. “With advanced technologies at their fingertips in the workshop, our designers can go from concept to prototype more seamlessly and efficiently than ever before. We’re excited to see what we dream up next.”
The JDIW’s tools of the trade span a mix of traditional heavy production machinery, bleeding-edge high-tech gadgetry and software and, most importantly, each team member’s discerning eyes, hands and instincts.
Metal melting torches and laser welders fire on and off, and laser engravers, sandblasters and polishers hum away as jewelry cutting and hammering tools—hand cranks, rolling presses and saw blades—clink, clatter and bang.
“Some might call it noisy. I call it magical electricity,” says Dana.
Emblematic of the dawn of a new day, the unprecedented global exhibition brought hopeful glimpses of “The World of Tomorrow” to life in dazzling displays. Fantastic and futuristic visions of art and innovation delighted international visitors and locals alike.
There, as guests watched in anticipation, exhibitors at the unique affair showcased fascinating feats of technology never before seen. From television broadcasts to a voice-controlled robot to a revolving theater cooled by air-conditioning, fair attendees witnessed the wonders of the world to come. What else sparked interest? Well-crafted, eye-catching jewels, of course.
Curious onlookers were captivated by Tiffany & Co.’s extravagant display, including a luxurious 429-diamond necklace featuring a singular 200-carat aquamarine gem. Millions gathered to behold the spectacle ahead of the opening of Tiffany’s flagship store on 57th Street and Fifth Avenue in Manhattan.
The brilliant presentation symbolized new beginnings, aspirations and a sense of hope for brighter days ahead.
Elevated Elegance, Refinement Revisited
Today, that indelible historic moment has come full circle: Tiffany is reimagining the iconic World’s Fair necklace in all its original splendor, but with an elevated twist. For the centerpiece, the high jewelry House acquired an over-80-carat, internally flawless oval diamond to recreate the stunning piece.
What’s more, the extraordinary gemstone will be unveiled at the anticipated reopening of the transformed Tiffany Fifth Avenue flagship store, making history once again. Talk about making a grand entrance – or in this case, re-entrance.
“What better way to mark the opening of our transformed Tiffany flagship in 2022 than to reimagine this incredible necklace from the 1939 World’s Fair, one of our most celebrated pieces when we opened our doors on 57th Street and Fifth Avenue for the first time,” said Victoria Wirth Reynolds, Tiffany & Co. Chief Gemologist. “The World’s Fair Necklace perfectly reflects our brand heritage as a New York luxury jeweler whose founder was known as the ‘King of Diamonds.’”
A One-of-a-Kind Gem
This remarkable gem represents Tiffany’s largest diamond acquisition since obtaining the exquisite 128.54-carat Tiffany Diamond back in 1878. Unlike the legendary Tiffany Diamond, which is famously not for sale, this exquisite stone will be set in a necklace that is expected to be Tiffany’s most expensive piece yet.
With an estimated price tag in the tens of millions, the necklace and its over-80-carat diamond are far from ordinary. Sourced from Botswana, Africa, the exceptional center stone symbolizes the brand’s industry-first approach to traceability, making it not only a rare jewel, but also a responsible one. Our New York City artisans will meticulously set the diamond in its new yet historic home.
Stringing Together the Past and Present
Just as visitors to the 1939 World’s Fair marveled at the magnificence of the original necklace, a new generation will be awestruck by this thoughtfully revamped piece. And, when Tiffany’s doors reopen next year, a new chapter will begin in its storied history as a high jewelry destination.

When the iconic Tiffany & Co. flagship store opened on Fifth Avenue and 57th Street more than 80 years ago, it ushered in a sleek sophistication that set the tone for what would become one of the most renowned New York City streets and luxurious shopping districts in the world. In turn, it has become a cherished architectural masterpiece in the heart of the Big Apple. In the eight decades since its opening, structurally not much has changed—but the time has come.
After the completion of the renovations, the flagship store will reopen with premium refinements and eye-catching interior and exterior additions, including a glittering glass rooftop.
Preserving the Past
Although lavish expansions and renovations will catapult the flagship store into the future, some of the treasured unique elements that make the legendary jeweler special will remain. For example, the exquisite existing vitrines, distinctive salvaged stone and Wheat Leaf grilles, as well as amazonite details that add to the store’s opulent ambiance are all being preserved or repurposed for the revamped flagship store.
Keeping those features and incorporating them into the new design aptly reflects the house’s commitment to its rich heritage while looking ahead—a Tiffany hallmark.
Standing the test of time
While many of those details are virtually synonymous with the store, nothing symbolizes the brand quite like the iconic Atlas clock that sits atop the limestone-and-granite building’s entrance. The nine-foot bronze-painted statue of the mythological Greek figure shoulders a clock that has been a part of Tiffany’s history since 1853, when it was first affixed above the entrance of the House’s previous location at 550 Broadway. Since 1940, the Atlas statue and clock have come to symbolize the Fifth Avenue institution, recognized around the globe as an emblem of Tiffany itself.
Approximately four feet in diameter, the sculpture graces the building’s façade and boasts elegant Roman numerals. It beautifully represents the brand’s timeless appeal that spans generations. It’s the oldest extant building clock in New York City and serves as a beloved and trusted timekeeper in the bustling metropolis.
Everlasting muse
Since 1983, the Atlas clock has inspired original timepieces and a full range of Atlas® jewelry and accessories that debuted in 1995. Throughout the years, its signature Roman-numeral designs made the collections coveted among customers.
In 2020, Tiffany began discontinuing some of the original pieces and introduced a stunning new lineup—Atlas X—revolutionizing the Roman numeral motif. In early 2021, the brand began rolling out a bold new collection of jewelry, eyewear and watches that exemplify the precious nature of time. Meticulously crafted with precious metals and shimmering gemstones, the designs are defined by solid, smooth lines, precise, graphic cutouts and intersecting pavé diamond elements.
Reinventing the familiar is what this collection embodies, and it dovetails wonderfully with the forthcoming flagship store renovation. Each represents an evolution that celebrates legacy, proving that embracing both will always shine.
Tiffany & Co. congratulates the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on their victory in Super Bowl LV and for securing the most coveted trophy in all of sports, the Vince Lombardi Trophy.
Named after legendary NFL coach Vince Lombardi who led the Green Bay Packers to victories in the first two Super Bowl games, the iconic trophy measures 22 inches high and weighs 7 pounds. Molded, shaped, and carved of sterling silver at Tiffany’s Cumberland, R.I. hollowware workshop over the course of four months, the iconic trophy features an NFL regulation-sized football that sits atop an expanded three-sided kicking tee.
