The latest expression of Tiffany & Co.'s annual high jewellery collection is a double celebration. It's the first Blue Book collection by new Chief Artistic Officer of Jewellery and High Jewellery, Nathalie Verdeille, while the extraordinary designs are a tribute to Jean Schlumberger and his fascination with the fantastical creatures found in the ocean. With geometric and stylised aesthetics, each masterpiece draws inspiration from the legendary designer's imagination and design philosophy-perpetuating and reinventing his enigmatic symbols of the sea.
During his celebrated career, Schlumberger created a multitude of designs inspired by marine life masterworks that explored both mimesis and abstraction. Capturing the essence of his creations, Blue Book 2023: Out of the Blue transforms his anthology of aquatic jewels into a mesmerising high jewellery collection for the first time.
The aesthetic and story behind famed Schlumberger by Tiffany & Co. designs, such as the Royal Fish brooch or La Méduse brooch, is retold through a new lens. With exceedingly rare gemstones set in unexpected combinations alongside diamonds, the undersea narrative that Jean Schlumberger dreamt up over half a century ago is retold again in these new high jewellery creations.
