Shopping the Tiffany Garden Collection

By Heidi Green , last updated May 17, 2011

Whether you will be looking for a Mother's Day present or simply plan on giving your sweetheart a spring surprise, shopping the Tiffany Garden collection will surely net you the perfect gift. Few can resist the timeless elegance and luxury appeal of a piece of Tiffany jewelry, and many people never forget the first time that they were handed the famous "little blue box" containing a treasure to keep for the rest of their lives. For the spring of 2011, Tiffany has released a line of jewelry that is inspired by the natural elements of springtime, as well as vintage architectural motifs developed in the early part of the twentieth century. These two forces combine to create the perfect jewelry line to celebrate the arrival of warmer weather and spring. If you seem convinced that only the finest will do for your loved one, then read on to learn a little bit more about the line.

Necklaces and Pendants

The Tiffany Garden Collection is comprised of mostly necklaces or pendants, and you can tell that the designers took extra delight in ensuring that they stand out individually. The "garden" theme is certainly out in full force, and many of these pendants use flower imagery as the centerpiece for their design. The small flower pendant in 18 karat gold with a single diamond is an affordable and more discreet option that will serve as a charming counterpoint to a pastel cardigan, perfect for spring morning brunches. For the jewelry wearer with more elaborate tastes, Tiffany has the oval cobblestone pendant in platinum. This beautiful and shimmering pendant encases several diamonds and is designed to resemble the winding cobblestone path found in many country gardens. This pendant will definitely be the star of any show, and it goes perfectly with an elegant ballroom dress or more formal attire. The Garden collection also includes other designs taken from nature, including a playful collection of insect shaped jewelry; dragonflies, butterflies and bees all add a touch of whimsy.

Bracelets

Tiffany is well regarded for its bracelets, and even the plain and unadorned bracelet models are highly envied and sought after. They have made the "Petals" cuff for their garden collection, inspired by the outward opening of flowers in bloom. They come either in 18 karat rose gold or sterling silver. The gold model has three diamonds placed in the center of each flower shape, and the sterling silver model has one diamond placed in the middle flower shape.

Rings

Tiffany rings are an almost priceless gift. Yes, they are expensive, but their significance will be treasured for as long as the recipient lives. The rings from the Garden collection are no different. These are also inspired by natural elements, and include the Garden Flower ring, which purple amethyst stones set in 18 karat gold to represent the individual petals of a flower. In the center of this flower lies a round diamond. There is also the Cobblestone band ring, which uses the cobblestone theme to put together various sized diamonds in a platinum encasement.
