Ugh same! And the Bean clutch. Never seen either unfortunately.

I've seen the bean clutch! I wanted to get it.
It's super cute, but it's also super thin and super not practical, at least for me.
I would never be able to use it for anything except store tissue.
I think it's only like 1.5" deep which holds literally a tissue and maybe two credit cards when you snap it close.

That maybe okay for you, and if it is, the clutch is super super cute!

ETA: I tried it on at the NYC store.

Aww that’s what I expected, but it’s too bad it’s not functional. It looks like it would be lovely to hold. If I ever have a red carpet event where I can throw practicality to the wind, it will be on the short list.

Your post peaked my interest again in this clutch, so I went to Tiffany.com.
I saw in the red version, there is a view of the inside.
You can see how you can't put anything in it due to how thin it is and the shape.
The red is super cute too! Gah! So darn cute, but so darn useless!
We could just buy it and use it as a paperweight or table art! :biggrin: :heart:

I didn't see the red version at the NYC store, but I like it too. I think I would stay with silver though if I ever got one.

Has anyone seen the Campana bag in real life? I’m a little bit in love with the pictures…

I saw this in real life too! Again, NYC store.
The NYC store had this display section of Peretti non-jewelry accessories.

This bag is super cute too, and you can attach the strap and wear it on the shoulder. Depending on your height, I think one could also wear it crossbody. If not though, the straps come off, so one can easily use a longer strap.

This bag is super cute too, but it is also super small. It's deeper than the Bean clutch though. I would say it's like the size of a box of those "Thank You" cards you buy at stationary stores, maybe tad bigger.

These bags are so cute! If one was crazy or truly obsessed, they could be collectibles just to display. :biggrin::heart:

So happy to add another Peretti piece into my collection.

In love with my rock crystal ring! It is quite literally a crystal ball and I absolutely love it! It is the smaller size.

Hi! I love the Peretti cabachon ring, and this looks fabulous on you!

Congrats on your new piece! Gorgeous!

ETA: It will look amazing with the Bone Cuff which is how I wear mine.

Yes! I might try it. Something is missing when I wear it by itself, so the bone cuff will give that extra pizazz! Thanks

I agree... that ring needs a buddy on the wrist, and a bold buddy that can stand face-to-face with it.
I vote your Bone Cuff!

I posted this photo earlier, but here it is again for inspiration. I think you will really like it worn together.
What you do not see is I am also wearing the bottle pendant on my neck. Check out the necklace too and see if you like it. :nuts: :heart:

I gave up waiting for the lacquer 'doughnut' bangles to come in (UK) in the colour(s) I wanted (Negoro) and size I needed. The piece has gone-up 30% since I first started looking, and not so long ago. I'll probably get a pre-loved at some point.

I ended buying Hermes instead so there's no hurry now. Completely different (Vietnamese technique and not Japanese) but I am so sick of the games at Tiffany under LVMH (I realise the irony of saying that, that way round). I had assurances time after time, T staff would let me know availability but nothing. I still wanted a statement wooden bangle to honour my father to wear year round, and actually he would have loved the H equally.

So sorry to hear you waited and waited, and then never found the bracelet you were after. That is certainly saying something that it was easier to find a piece at Hermes, instead! (I know, wrong thread, but curious what you bought. I love my Hermes lacquer pieces, and the craftsmanship is beautiful). My recent dismay with Tiffany since the LVMH takeover is their new, bloated packaging. The boxes used to be small, discrete, and useful for storage.

I absolutely love the apparent simplicity, minimalist beauty, and real artisanal work that goes into EPs wood bangles. Either they have a supply issue, are resting them or are just playing games. At least they could have let me know.

If you want less packaging go to VCA they are going the other way New packaging

What colour is Negoro? The name sounds intriguing.
