See Tiffany & Co.'s Cool Collaboration with Artist Daniel Arsham
You know and love the Tiffany Blue Box® – but you haven’t quite seen it like this before. Tiffany & Co. has transformed its iconic box with a little help from New York-based contemporary artist, Daniel Arsham. Together, they’ve created a series of 49 eroded bronze sculptures, reimagining the Blue Box in Arsham’s distinct uchronic style and with his concept of fictional archaeology.
“I always gravitate towards items that are immediately culturally recognisable. The Tiffany Blue Box® has that power,” says Arsham. “I wanted to address it in a way different than how it was originally intended by giving it a distressed, aged quality which represents its history, how much of a fixture it is in our world today, and how it will continue to be relevant decades, even centuries from now.”
Of course, a Tiffany Blue Box® simply isn’t complete if there isn’t a piece of Tiffany & Co. jewellery in it – and this box houses a limited-edition Tiffany x Arsham Studio Knot bracelet, in 18k white gold with diamonds and tsavorites. Tsavorite was chosen not just because its colour goes with the Blue Box – it is also a Tiffany legacy gemstone that the house introduced to the world in 1974.
The limited-edition sculpture and the bracelet it holds are also the best way to get first dibs on the house’s new Tiffany Knot collection, which gets released proper next year.
