fashion jewelry tiffany and co bunny mellon
Tiffany & Co. has released a new iteration of its Bird on the Rock collection, drawing inspiration from the Virginia estate of the late Rachel Lambert “Bunny” Mellon, a horticulturalist, art collector, and devoted patron of Tiffany designer Jean Schlumberger. Mellon, who died at age 103, owned nearly 150 pieces by Schlumberger, including one of the first Bird on the Rock brooches from 1965. The new collection, designed under Chief Artistic Officer Nathalie Verdeille, features fine and high jewelry pieces that echo Schlumberger's original motifs, with gemstones like tanzanite and turquoise chosen to honor his preferences.
