The Tiffany Elsa Peretti Bean Thread

[arnott]

Just saw the platinum mini bean on the website. Anyone know if this is new and if it's 9mm?

Ok here's my bean with my two CZ by the yards.

The first one is the smaller one from Berricle/New Outlet.

The second is an old-style QVC one.

That bean looks great on you! How many mm is it?

mines the 9mm and it's been on the site as long as Ic an remember. But the Mini on the link you showed me doesn't give any dimensions

Went to Tiffany today and the SA said that the platinum bean is being discontinued!

Boo.

I just got the 9mm silver bean. Its so cute, I compared it to the 12mm but for the extra $75 it didn't seem that much bigger. I wear mine with my DBTY

Sooooo I am going to treat myself to the 9mm silver bean. Again. I bought myself this one last year but exchanged it for something else. I got my 20mm bean put back to the original length and stuck with that.
However...
I have finally found an exercise regimen that I love and it is yoga. Today I wore my 20mm bean and... It is a bit too long... The bean literally falls right in front of my mouth when I am in downward dog and of course this bean is heavy and distracted me.
I mean, yes I can just take the bean off and put it back on, but I want a yoga friendly bean, and I am going to check out the 9mm again and if I decide to get it I am also going to shorten it a half inch or so.
I am officially nuts about tiffany. Sigh.

This was when I had the 9mm bean. I am gonna get it back.

this is very contemporary, what drew you ladies to this piece?

Something about the shape, I love it!

I have not worn mine since I got it honestly. I wore it this week and two people asked if dh got it as a congrats you're preg gift. If I could return it now I would. It just does not get worn and when it does I get lots of creepy women asking me questions about due dates and I'm not preg.

Whoah! Never thought about it being a pregnancy gift.

The sculptural shape of the bean really appealed to me. I just got the rose gold bean necklace last wk!

Whoah! Never thought about it being a pregnancy gift.

Around here, just about everyone I know and encounter that has one has it bec when they found out they were pregnant their husband got it for them. I knew that going in that it was very popular for "representing the growing bean" around here, but I didn't really think people would assume that. I am fat and I really honestly look pregnant all the time bec ALL of my weight is in my stomach (it's very VERY annoying) and I get asked daily already when I am due, what the sex is, etc etc., some people even TOUCH ME completely unsolicited. But wearing that...it's constant. It's annoying. So...Im miffed I cannot return it and Im considering selling it.

I love the shape of it, that it is kind of abstract...but...meh.

I would never associate it with being pregnant either! I've had the 12mm bean for a couple years now. I wear it at least twice a week and I've never had anyone ask me if I was expecting or have anyone associate this necklace with being pregnant in any way. That seems very odd to me.
