Hi everyone!

I’m turning 25 next month and I need some advice on getting myself a birthday gift! I have a lot of silver pieces from Tiffany’s, but as this is a milestone birthday, I wanted to get myself my first piece of Tiffany gold. I’m trying to choose between the elephant charm, the mini smile, or the Elsa Peretti S!

My current daily necklaces are the smallest sterling silver DBTY, and the mini silver smile which I wear stacked.


Thanks in advance for any advice!!

I love the S initial pendant! Its absolutely gorgeous. I say go with that one its beautiful and you can wear it for years to come since its your initial. You already have t smile in silver so i would advise against that one in gold. The elephant is really cute! But i think you can get more wear our of the initial pendant.

I like the smile of these three. I know you already have it in silver, but I also think the two smiles could be cute stacked. Maybe try the larger smile if it’s in budget, too? I don’t think it’s that much more than the EP s necklace you posted. Have fun choosing!

I like the Tiffany smile, it looks quite classy and it's not a bad thing to have the same design in different metals. I tend to pick out the same pieces in silver and gold because each metal exudes a different characteristic. What did you end up picking? I'd love to see photos.

Me too. If I already like something, I really like something

Can you tell us more about why you like each piece and why you narrowed it down to those?

If I was going for an elephant I'd go for the Save The Wild charity elephant. It's still cute but it has a little more design sophistication, plus of course you help real elephants (if you also like the real thing)

Hi all!! I was away for the weekend and got trapped in the airport for 22 hours :shocked:...so sorry for the late responses!

I chose the elephant because I love elephants, and the smile because I have the silver one and love it already, and the S because I think the design is interesting enough that hopefully I won’t outgrow it, if that makes sense!

My birthday is late September so I have some time to think about it—any other recommendations, or photos in action would be great!

I am liking the peretti S the best out of the bunch. I think it’ll be the most versatile piece with modern, clean lines. The S will also remind you that you got this during your birthday month. Happy early bday to you! [emoji320]

Out of the 3, I'd go with the S necklace since you already have the smile necklace and the elephant is cute but a little juvenile.

If you're open to other necklaces:
I agree with Julezah. Go for the bigger smile and stack them.
But, big but!!! Tiffany just released new pieces for the save the wild collection that includes a 3D elephant pendant. It's totally different from other Tiffany pieces and definitely worth looking into. I'm going to buy it too (or the lion). It's fresh, modern and clean.

I would pick the S because it’s something that you won’t outgrown. Brw thanks for sharing with us because I’m keen to check out the same one in store now, it looks unique!
