The Paradise Bird story continues this avian narrative through a series of imaginative brooches that celebrate color and creative freedom. Each playful creation features a fantastical bird poised atop an exceptional gemstone— Mexican fire opal, Brazilian rubellite, Ethiopian blue chalcedony or Madagascan spessartine— selected for its vibrant character and expressive hue. Feathers unfold through pointillist arrangements of richly colored gemstones that echo the tone of the center stone, while unexpected combinations, such as emeralds with turquoise and tsavorite, or carved gemstones paired with diamonds, bring each creature to life.
The Parrot story draws inspiration from Schlumberger’ s fantastical parrot brooches created for Tiffany & Co. in the 1960s. Unenhanced blue and purple sapphires punctuate a whimsical mosaic of feather motifs, while diamonds are paired with exceptional paillonné enamel in a painterly palette of dark blue, duck green and Tiffany Blue ®. Hand-applied with extraordinary precision, the vivid color palette of the enamel feathers evokes the iridescent movement of wings in flight, creating a striking yet harmonious silhouette, balanced by sculptural platinum feathers and delicate accents of 18k yellow gold.
The Bee story, inspired by Schlumberger’ s iconic Two Bees ring, explores a sophisticated interplay of honeycomb-inspired lattices and organic movement. Exceptional oval diamonds are set within geometric hexagons accented in 18k yellow gold, culminating in a remarkable ring centered on a D-color, internally flawless Type IIa oval diamond of over 10 carats, delicately framed by hidden figural bees.
Floral expressions bloom throughout the collection. Jasmine reinterprets a 1961 – 1962 Schlumberger design through intricate platinum braiding and a trellis motif set with a D-color, internally flawless Type IIa cushioncut diamond of over 18 carats. In a separate suite, cushion-cut kunzites— one of Tiffany & Co.’ s“ legacy gemstones”— illuminate the pieces, delicately uplifting the jasmine floral motif in some of its creations.
