Ear shots are more important than work. LOL Just kidding! BTW, I saw a double acorn Tiffany diamond ring the other while web browsing. Stunning! Thought of you.

Picked up an Elsa Peretti piece while on a work trip - been eyeing on the scorpion pendant for some time, so happy to finally have it in my collection!

Looks amazing on you! Really like how you’ve styled it with a high neck jumper.

Are you wearing pearl earrings with it? ^_^

Awwww thank you both!! Sharp eye, it’s paired with my Mikimoto pearl studs - wanted to go for a ladylike edgy style!

Is it really a big difference between Heart and arrows? I noticed that when I look at white flash, there are some regular vendors who will have the same cert dimensions but white flash will have it as ACA but other vendor will have it as an excellent cut. Thank you in advance.

You won’t find ACA diamonds on anyone else’s website as they are owned in house by Whiteflash. Hearts and arrows are but one aspect of these diamonds and how their specs work together to produce an amazing diamond. Similar specs don’t mean exact so you would not be comparing apples to apples. The ACA diamonds do make a difference and if you read their information on their website, you begin to understand how they choose and vet their diamonds. These diamonds are not cut for weight retention but rather for the top performance you can find in diamond cutting. I have attached a picture of my 2.53 ACA center stone. There are many examples of ACA diamonds to be seen here on PS. I have owned several diamonds in my life - none compare to this.

Hi Sharon!
Yes!! You are right! I do!
The smallest Tiffany Victoria bracelet.. 3.08 carats tw set in yellow gold.
Not new but new to me.

Still loving this baby? Wearing it much? You can always post more IRL pictures. LOL

 

[Rubies-R-Me]

Hi Sharon @canuk-gal !
Actually haven't worn it much at all since it's been at the "Tiffany Spa" for sizing.
I left it there more than a week ago and I'm waiting to get the estimate of how much for them to take out 3 stones.
So in a few weeks it shall be on my wrist and then the pix will flow!

Hello Tiffany compadres! Do any of you own the Metro Cuff with diamonds? Can you share your thoughts on how it’s worn with time, does it snag, is it comfy?

Mr T was recently in a store looking for my Xmas gift & they brought one out from the stock room, as it seemed to match his description of “she’s low maintenance, lazy with jewellery removal, stacks bracelets & likes things to be comfy & feel part of her skin…” I’m sure the SA was aghast & horrified, but she suggested this might work

Thoughts?

Hi Ally T!
I absolutely LOVE this bracelet!! I have always admired it on Ebay and thought about getting it. Perfect for stacking.. it's a beautiful simple design but all gussied up because of the diamonds.
Also love that your hubs knows your jewelry habits "to a T!"

Thanks so much for your input! I’ve looked at a few on EBay (only seem to be rose gold though & I would want yellow) & they seem to have retained their shape ok. I’m presuming for the price they’re solid gold, as I wouldn’t get on with a hollow tube due to being heavy handed, but Mr T forgot to ask the question. Because, bloke……

 

[MissGotRocks]

It is a beautiful bracelet. I have no experience or knowledge about it. I only know that the Metro band is thin and when I was considering it, the sales associate advised against it as a wedding band to be worn every day. I ended up going with the channel set band as I loved it and it was more substantial. All this to say that I would check the millimeter thickness of the bracelet as well as the solidness of the bracelet. It surely wouldn't get the wear that a ring would and would be lovely stacked or on its own. I am sure as well that if it is a gift, it could be returned if you didn't think it would hold up in the way you would want it to. Hats off to Mr. T for shopping for something for you that he feels you would love - kudos!!

Haha Mr T makes me chuckle!

Re: this cuff, it doesn’t look like there’s a hinge mechanism which means that it twists on and off? As in, you need to physically bend the metal out of position and then back into position?

I have to admit, if that’s the case, even if it isn’t hollow and you don’t take it on/off often, I think it would warp over time. The Tiffany T wire or thin Cartier JUC comes to mind - and they are both notorious for deforming over time

Also, the small separation in the cuff gives me pause for thought as that could easily catch in clothing etc and bend the cuff out of shape. The thinness/pointiness of the cuff ends also makes it easy to catch, compared to eg a Cartier JUC cuff which is thicker and has rounded edges.

But of course, ymmv!

Thanks for your input. And you are right - there are no hinges. The SA told Mr T that you just gently open the ends & slide the cuff on sideways, then let it spring back. Plus the less it’s removed, the less it gets bent & in theory, the stronger it will stay? Not sure about the last bit, hence my asking for reviews / opinions!

It really is lovely & isn’t one I’ve considered before as I’ve never explored the Metro range. Mr T said it wasn’t overly skinny & the SA said it should be worn diamonds on top & snug to the wrist, so you might go a size smaller than your usual preferred Tiffany bracelet size. However, as I think this in the only one she has & is a medium, it would be just right. I think?!

 

[HollyC]

Hi @Ally T , I love that he is so organised for Christmas!

I think this cuff is beautiful and would go with your other pieces very well. I don’t have this, but I believe it is the same as the T wire.

I have had my T wire for almost 10 years and it is still in excellent condition. I wear it all day on average 5 days per week.

I don't see this bracelet listed on the US Tiffany website any longer.
Maybe check with your SA to see if they are still producing them? If not, I would grab the one your SA has!

Thank you SO much for putting my mind at rest! It was the density of the gold that concerned me most with it being flexible, so I am very glad to hear it’s held its shape!

I don’t think they are stocking them here in the UK either. Mr T said the one she brought out was from the back & “older stock” so I think you maybe right & he should just phone her & do the deed!

Nothing wrong with Starbucks & grapes!!

We have a very large immediate family (there are 28 or us, including siblings & husbands / wives, nieces, nephews & our two mothers) & we like to have all the Christmas shopping done & wrapped by early November, so we can then just chill & enjoy the build up. It’s so stressful!

Well with that number--you need to be ahead of the game! We don't exchange for the most part and I don't feel bad about that! LOL

I have a different older Tiffany bracelet that you take on and off with this sort of twisting motion and it has stayed lined up pretty well, but I've seen plenty of bent Tiffany T wire bracelets on TheRealReal over the years.

Here are two quick crummy photos of my bracelet:

not latched, doesn't look like it's bent too much:

I love this bracelet very much Thank you for your input & feedback.

I’ve messaged Mr T & told him to go ahead before the SA offloads it onto someone else, as he’s away again at the mo. I think for the most part from what I can gather, the wire bracelets all hold up pretty well with time, apart from the T’s becoming slightly misaligned on the T wire. I wonder if this is because the heads are bulkier & so take more knocking about?

My new Tiffany 2.5 mm platinum band. I love this band. Perfect width and super comfortable
