Founded by Charles Lewis Tiffany, Tiffany & Co. has been the home of the finest diamonds in the world since 1837.
They quickly attracted an elite clientele from movie stars all the way to heads of state, but entered new realms of luxury with the acquisition of the French Crown Jewels.
Accumulating a reputation of being home to the world's finest jewellery, their designs have pushed boundaries for over 180 years and they're showing no signs of stopping.
In 2017, Tiffany & Co. celebrated their 180th birthday. To pay homage to this milestone, we took a look at the designs that got everyone talking about Tiffany.
Tiffany's designs are renowned for their prestige, creativity and quality.
These designs have come from a lineage of designers such as Louis Comfort Tiffany, Jean Schlumberger, Elsa Peretti and Paloma Picasso who took the brand from strength to strength.
Kicking off our list is none other than the Tiffany diamond.

The Tiffany Diamond has been with the brand for over 140 years. The diamond was purchased in 1877 as a rough stone weighing a mighty 287 carats.
When Tiffany fashioned it into a diamond, the rough stone was cut down to 128.54 carats and renamed to the Tiffany Diamond.
Over time, the Tiffany Diamond has been fashioned into numerous pieces and worn to ultra-exclusive events.

Tiffany & Co. redefined ring design in 1886.
At the time, ring designs obscured the brilliance of a diamond because they would be included in the bezel setting.
Tiffany sought to liberate the diamond with a 6-prong setting. This move lifted the diamond above the band where it could show its brilliance.
Rejecting this convention encouraged the USA to adopt it as a standard.

There's a saying..."it's not what it is, it's what it represents."
To give you an idea, think about the LV monogram, Rolex logo, Ferrari badge or even the Superman theme tune - you just know it.
