Jewelry is not fashion. It has to last, not be discarded as soon as something else comes along.
Elsa Peretti, Italian born jewelry designer (1940-2021).
Ms. Peretti designed for Tiffany & Co. and created the iconic Bone Cuff, Open Heart pendant, and Mesh Necklace.
I can’t agree more with this week’s quote. Jewelry should always be timeless, or at least we should approach it as if it were and mix it up. Certainly all of what Ms. Peretti designed is timeless. Her pieces from nearly fifty years ago are still selling at Tiffany and have become classics.
Come back tomorrow for more on Elsa Peretti.
