I recently visited Tiffany's and saw an amazing 100 carat yellow quartz pendant/necklace. It is ~$6000 so it would be a huge purchase for me. The gemstone is a large teardrop that hangs from a long gold chain and is stunning. Not sure if I can wear it a lot or if it is such a statement piece that I would only be able to wear it on occasion.... What are your thoughts on Picasso's gemstone pieces? Any thoughts on whether or not it is a good staple piece that's worth the investment?

Thanks for sharing!!

I think this is a great design and definitely worth it if you can afford it. Depending on your style you may or may not be able to wear it often. I would imagine that you could get some pretty nice costume jewelry that would be just as beautiful for a lot less. I'm not really sure what yellow quartz sales for on the open market but I imagine it's at least 50% less. Have you considered having a similar one made at a local jeweler?

That pouch definitely looks fake to me. They used to make a pouch smaller than the one on the left but it's been many years. Also the color is way off.

I know I'm not Tyler...but I think Tiffany's got a new manufacturer for their pouches recently because I get ~5 pieces for christmas...and four of them came in these pouches (even the one i picked up at the store myself)...I know it does look fake...but i think that is what they are moving to! I personally think they feel...odd?

I agree, maybe they are trying to save money and went to a different manufacturer. I have recieved slightly different ones in my most recent purchase.

^^ Hmm... what an odd place to cut quality in if that is the case! Especially since they just raised their prices. Part of the fun of getting T&Co is the quality of the packaging. I like the suede pouches & would be very put off to get anything different in the boutique.

Hi Tyler,
Thanks for being such a wealth of information on this subject. I wanted to run this listing past you..do these earrings look like the real deal to you? i posted them in the authenticate this thread and she said she couldnt be 100% sure, just wondering what your opinion is. I know they dont offer this style any longer but I really love them! Thttp://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=270545988964&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IThanks for any help!

The box and the hallmark look good but I've never seen that design before. My first thought was that it's either a really new design or it's more than a few years old.

Hi Tyler,

I have the cupcake charm which broke in half, but I didn't know it had broken so I lost the bottom half. I've owned it for less than a year, but obviously longer than the standard 30 days.

Any ideas as to what, if anything, Tiffany's might do for me?

Thanks for all your help on this thread.

that's disappointing to hear, i was thinking of getting the cupcake charm, and my sister wants the blue box charm, but they do look rather delicate at the point of attachment. i hope you they can help you!

I've never hear of that happening with that charm so I'm sure there was probably a defect in the manufacturing. When something like that happens they usually return or exchange the item no questions asked even when it's outside of the normal return period.

Hi, Could you tell me if this is authentic?? There is no makings on the back of the disc. Thanks
