2. Tiffany & Co.
Picture fresh flowers, as though they were hand-cut from paper, then delicately scattered in the wind. Such was the vision behind the new Paper Flowers Collection by Tiffany & Co. The iconic jeweler’s latest line comprises flower-inspired, high and fine jewelry crafted in platinum, diamonds and tanzanites—blue-violet gemstones mined in Tanzania.
