This pair of spessartite garnet earrings comes from
Tiffany 2017 Blue Book high jewelry collection——
“The Art of the Wild”, with the theme of
“Flying Wings” (Feathered Cloak). The designer captured the moment when two birds picked up gems, with golden feathers laid out by yellow diamonds, shining brightly and complementing the orange spessartite garnet beneath the bird’s claws.
Bird on a Rock” is one of Tiffany’s most iconic animal-themed jewelry pieces, depicting a serene scene of a bird at rest. This pair of
“Feathered Cloak” earrings reinterprets the elements of birds and gemstones in a more dynamic way. The gold prongs around the gemstones are like the sharp claws of a flying bird, creating the image of birds soaring with objects.
Two birds spreading their wings are made of gold, with their wings and tails adorned with colorless diamonds. The hollowed-out back of the setting allows more light to pass through the diamonds, while the belly of the birds is adorned with round-cut yellow diamonds, radiating a bright natural fire.
The main stones under the earrings are two cushion-cut
“Spessartite Garnets” (Spessartite), also known as
“Fanta Stone”, due to the presence of manganese, they display a golden yellow to orange-red color, making them one of the most saturated orange gemstones. The two main stones have a total weight of
12.57ct, and their rich orange hue makes them the focal point of the earrings.
