tifaandco | 07 August, 2009 04:12
Tiffany jewellery selects ten perfect gifts, wrapped in Tiffany Blue®. Each is a must-have on someone’s list. From famous jewelry icons and colorful gemstones to holiday mementos, the collection shines with a heritage of quality and legendary style that was established with Tiffany’s founding in 1837.
Click the Pictures to see clearly.
- Tiffany revived the rose cut, an early style of gemstone cutting inspired by the petals of an opening rosebud. The rose-cut diamonds are combined with round brilliant-cut diamonds in earrings ($5,000) that capture the beauty of freshly-picked blossoms.
- Tiffany celebrates the classic elegance of black and white. This enamel bracelet with a lacelike diamond and platinum overlay and 18 karat gold lining ($90,000) recalls the Victorian era; and the black onyx and diamond open circle earrings ($12,000) and teardrop earrings ($20,000) in platinum reflect the Art Deco period.
- The Tiffany jewelry Keys Collection is inspired by keys in the Tiffany archives. Each is a keepsake, innately chic, to wear alone or layered. Choose from the heart key charm of 18 karat rose gold ($250) or the heart locket key of yellow gold ($500). Options in 18 karat white gold encrusted with diamonds include the Frame key with black enamel finish ($2,250), checkerboard key with blue enamel finish ($2,000), and octagon key with blue and green enamel finish ($2,250).
- Tiffany’s heritage as a premier watchmaker can be traced through a timeline of innovations that extends from the jeweler’s founding in 1837 to the latest Tiffany timepiece: an oval-shaped cocktail watch of diamonds and 18 karat white gold ($12,600) that keeps time with dazzling precision.
- The tourmaline’s green spectrum is fully expressed in a luxurious, opera-length necklace of oval and round stones. Tiffany jewelers capture every hue from luscious green to brilliant blue, accented with diamonds, in platinum, to wrap and wear with ease, ($85,000).
- Tiffany’s collections include jewelry designs to wear every day as expressions of personal style. The bead bracelet of 18 karat gold ($1,000) is a perfect example.
- Jean Schlumberger created fantastic designs that captured the glory of flowers, birds and mythical creatures. His lavish rings embrace generous-size stones with sculptural flowers and leaves. Diamond daisy basket ring of 18 karat gold with a tanzanite ($77,000) or a vibrant pink tourmaline ($58,000), and leaf ring with diamonds and a green tourmaline ($37,000).
- A sterling silver Candy Cane ornament ($165) and Fire Truck bank ($1,525) awaken memories of magical holidays. The lustrous designs are masterworks of quality, crafted in the tradition of Tiffany gifts that celebrate every important occasion in life.
- Elsa Peretti’s iconic Bone cuff is beautifully shaped to the body. Its gleaming contours are now polished in a new charcoal color made of ruthenium over copper, ($395).

Tiffany & Co. Encouraging other jewelers NOT to Sell Coral Jewelry

Tiffany & Co TEN ROW DISC Toggle Necklace
------------------------------------
(NBC)-- You won't see coral jewelry on the shelves at any Tiffany Jewelry store.
The store doesn't stock the rare jewel. They call it "too precious to wear" and are encouraging other jewelers to do the same.
The reasoning behind the ban is the effect humans are having on coral reefs. The president of Tiffany Co Foundation, Fernanda Kellogg traveled to see top coral scientists and talk about the impact people are having on the reefs when they break it up and sell it for profit.
Scientists say reefs are more important to the sea, than rain forests are to land.
Miami coral scientist, Andrew Baker, says when people remove coral from the reefs, they are taking a living thing from the water.
He says,
"the job of building a reef ecosystem is that is produces a habitat that all other species depend on."
Kellogg says they look for the design of coral in other materials. Kellog says, "I think what the alternative is, is beautiful design in other materials. The wonderful sea coral design in silver and gold sprinkled with diamonds. How bad can that be?"
Scientists say, it's not just the jewelry that is dangerous to seas life, but also decorative coral.
Baker says,
"the removal of corals from jewelry or decor, this is not a critical part of our existence. And it's one of those activities that really represents a luxury.
So is a heavyweight like Tiffany's influencing the jewelry industry with its ban on coral?
Kellogg says she hopes other places will take notice.
"The ripple effect is beginning. We're a long way from being where we need to be."
Recently the White House and Congress received a letter from 100 scientists and 44 groups asking for much greater protection of reefs.
An international ban on trading certain corals will be proposed later this year.

Tiffany Co is using the medium of window display to communicate its message of “no coral sales“. It has launched the campaign ‘Under the Sea’, as a reminder of harmful activities of coral harvesting and its implications on marine ecosystems.

The window designs have a fantasy pictorial view that stresses on the need for coral conservation. Each window offers a different view through hills, valleys, waves, bubbles and coral shapes. The art was created and moulded in resin. The topography of hills and valleys is shaped by glittering sand and bathed in deep blue, pristine white, lavender or turquoise. Gossamer fabric forms waves of color and bubbles swirl around vibrant coral shapes sculpted in resin. The ocean-themed windows seek to inform the public that corals are living animals. Together with the reef systems which they help create, corals provide marine life with food and fertile grounds for reproduction.

The retailer’s message aims to inspire the trade and the consumer that corals being living animals are being harmed. Corals co-exist with the reef systems to create, provide marine life with food and fertile grounds for reproduction. Ecosystems today are endangered as corals are being harmed by destructive fishing methods, climate change and use as decorative objects and jewellery. 
The retailer had since 2002 taken a stance to refrain from selling coral jewellery, and is chooses to sell ‘sustainable style’, which imbibes designs co-existing with nature. The campaign “Under the Sea” will run through summer months and will display renowned designs of the retailer.

Fake Tiffany On EBAY - How to get your money back
tifaandco | 14 June, 2009 02:39
Sadly, a large percentage of Tiffany jewellery sold on eBay is counterfiet. And, unless you have experience purchase authentic Tiffany jewelery from thier stores or their official website, it can be easy to be fooled into believing the auction item is authentic. If you fell victim to one of these sellers you CAN get your money back.
Here’s how….
- As soon as you suspect that your item may be fake, take one of the following steps:
a) Go to Tiffanys dot com and check your item against the photos of the authentic piece.
b) Look at the piece under a magnifying glass. If the item has links, carefully examine all of the links. They should be soldered closed. Look at all of the engraving. You’re looking for misspellings and small dots in the engraving. Small dots are a sign of lazer copying. Tiffany does not use lazer engraving. They engrave by hand or by machine.
c)Send me the auction number so I can review it and offer my opinion.
d) Take the item to your nearest Tiffany & Co. store if there’s one within driving distance. Tiffany & Co. employees are not allowed to authenticate jewelry but they will tell you if they believe it to be fake.
e) Take the item to a reputable, experienced high-end jeweler who has experience with estate pieces. They may be able to render a good opinion. - Once you’re satisfied that you’ve purchased a fake, email the seller. At this point, I prefer to take the approach that it was an honest mistake. Assume that the seller didn’t know he/she was selling fake merchandise. This usually has a better success at getting a quick refund from the seller. Being accusatory puts the seller on the defensive and reduces your chances of a speedy refund. Tell the seller that you will be shipping the item(s) back to him/her and expect a full refund, including the shipping fees. Let him know that you will forward a delivery confirmation as soon as you have one. Be sure that you’re shipping to the correct address.
- If you receive an unfavorable response from the seller or if you don’t receive a timely response, immediately contact eBay’s resolution center to report this auction as a fake: http://resolutioncenter.ebay.com/
- IMMEDIATELY log on to your PayPal account. Click the Resolution Center link at he top of the page to open a dispute. In that dispute, state that the merchandise is counterfeit and that you’ve shipped it back to the seller. Include the delivery confirmation number. Shipping the item back expedites your refund. Note: no matter what the seller states in the auction, you have 45 days from the payment date to open a dispute. A seller’s “No Refund” policy is NOT valid in the case of counterfiet items.PayPal will send an email to the seller and will include what you’ve written in the dispute. PayPal will also immediately freeze the seller’s account for the total amount you’ve paid (including shipping). The seller should respond to that email.
- If the seller responds unfavorably and doesn’t issue a refund, log back on to your PayPal account and escalate the dispute to a claim. Again, include the delivery confirmation number. This allows PayPal to track the delivery and verify that the seller has received the return.
- After you’ve received your refund, be sure to leave negative feedback for the seller and state that the reason is that the item was proven to be a fake. This helps to protect future buyers. As of April 1, 2008 sellers are prohibited from leaving negative feedback for sellers. You no longer need to fear retaliation for honest feedback!
What happens now?
You will receive copies of any correspondance the seller sends to PayPal. If the seller continues to deny the claim, PayPal will investigate. Most of this is done automatically and you may not hear from PayPal again. Don’t fret. On the 30th day from the day your escalated the dispute to a claim, the entire amount of money that you paid to the seller will be returned to your PayPal account. If PayPal is able to verify the return of the item, you may receive your refund even sooner.
PayPal Policy: PayPal automatically holds payments for eBay items if the seller…
- has been an eBay member for less than 6 months and sells and item for more than $100
- has an eBay feedback score of less than 100 and sells and item for more than $100
- has a buyer dissatisfaction percentage greater than 5%
- has an average DSR (detailed seller rating) of less than 4.5
- has received fewer than 20 DSRs in the past 12 months
- is listing in a high-risk category
PayPal will release the hold…
- When the buyer leaves positive feedback
- 3 days pass after proof the item was delivered
- 21 days pass without a dispute, claim, chargeback or reversal filed on the transaction.
PayPal may hold the funds longer if a dispute, claim, chargeback, reversal or other action to disupte the payment has been filed.
