A little picture of the charms I wore today for an afternoon lunch at the tea shop. This kind of luncheon was what I had in mind for wearing such a charm bracelet. I really enjoyed it and it didn't feel too "young" on me. I love the heft and larger sizes of these charms, not dainty at all!

I've been getting over my fear of damaging the charms and have started wearing them. I realize that it's impossible to keep these in mint condition, unless they aren't worn, which is silly. Most of my Tiffany pieces are preowned at a fraction of the original retail price, so I have no reason not to wear and enjoy them.

I will try to post more pics as I collect more and wear them :-)

It's a nice collection gemlady72.

It seems I check with my local T&Co. Yes it's kinda official. They are discontinuing the charm series.

It's hard to believe they would discontinue the charms. Why discontinue something that's popular? The charm display is the busiest area of the store I go to, and I usually have to wait a while for people to move away before I can get close enough to see the charms. The rest of the store can be empty, but people will be looking at the charms and charm bracelets. I wonder if it's the low price point, they may be trying for a higher sale average?

Very pretty! Glad to hear you have relaxed and can now wear and enjoy your charm bracelet.

I don't believe they are discontinuing the charms. At least not in the U.S.

Thanks! I hope you are right as I just got started on my charm bracelet too.
Although I probably won't be collecting a lot of these charms as I have a nice collection of Juicy Couture charms and prefer their detail and whimsey style to the silver Tiffany charms (see my signature below).
Right now I'm thinking I'll probably fill up one bracelet, and then maybe just pick up a few seasonal charms to add to the bracelet at holidays.

I just received my new Tiffany catalog in the mail today. There is a beautiful 2-page display entitled "Charmed I'm Sure" with gold and silver charms. I'm so happy to see this since I just recently started to collect Tiffany charms! FYI, I'm in the U.S.

Oh good, I'm happy to hear this! Can't wait till I receive the new catalog. Did you notice any new charms, or just the same ones they've had? Thanks!

I did notice a beautiful gold and silver cupcake with gems on top that looked new to me! There may be other new ones too. I mostly collect hearts and locks so I'm not sure which others may be new.
