Brief: Tiffany Masterpieces blends classic with modern designs
BY LESLIE JORDAN CLARY
Tiffany’s Masterpieces 2015 collection blends bold, geometric Art Deco influences with movement and fluidity. Design director Francesca Amfitheatrof makes liberal use of diamonds to capture the romance of New York City. Several of the pieces have a strong structural element. A glittering skyscraper necklace suggests a skyline at twilight and diamond balls adorn the tips of a 1960s-inspired bangle. Other pieces are infused with colored gems such as an archival-inspired bracelet that uses green chrysoprase, black spinel and diamonds. Where Tiffany’s Blue Book tends to display a wide variety of styles from different eras, the Masterpieces collection tends to keep to a more focused theme.
