It’s a dazzler.

One of the world’s most famous jewellery brands has opened a dazzling new store at Selfridges, as the Trafford Centre welcomes Tiffany & Co.

This heritage brand now has a presence on the lower level of the luxury department store, selling its most recognisable items. 

The glittering new Tiffany & Co space is just beside the San Carlo champagne bar.

And although it’s tucked right in the heart of Selfridges, Tiffany & Co has gone to the effort of recreating the iconic windows from the New York flagship store, building a blue mosaic wall with window displays inside. 

Shoppers will be able to perch on plush cream-coloured stools to try on items from its four Icons collections – HardWear, Lock, T, and Knot –  before carrying your purchase off in that instantly-recognisable Tiffany blue bag.

Founded more than 180 years ago, Tiffany & Co is synonymous with New York City but loved globally. 

The heritage brand’s T collection was inspired by the grid system of the streets and avenues of Manhattan, it helped to design the dollar bill, and also designed the invites for the opening of the Statue of Liberty.

The Tiffany setting was the first engagement ring to have the diamond displayed on the band (which is now the standard) rather than embedded within the band – even the emoji on all our phones is a ring design invented by Tiffany & Co. 

It was the first jewellery designer to bring 925 sterling silver to the USA and it remains proud of its silver pieces. 

This is also the only jewellery name with full traceability of its diamonds, and rejects a whopping 0.04% to ensure only the highest-quality gems are used in its jewellery, cutting them for beauty rather than size.

The brand has a lot of famous names associated with it – Dua Lipa has been proudly wearing Tiffany & Co jewellery on her tour and public appearances, Lady Gaga launched the Hardwear collection, and Miley Cyrus wore the  ‘Elsa Peretti’ Bone cuff to receive her first Grammy Award. 

Beyonce’s cowboy hat and even her in-house ear monitors for her Renaissance Tour were even created with Tiffany.

Tiffany & Co is also the creator of possibly the world’s most famous piece of jewellery, The Tiffany Yellow Diamond necklace, worn by only four women – Lady Gaga, Audrey Hepburn, Mary Whitehouse, and Beyonce.

The new Tiffany & Co Manchester is now open in store at Selfridges at the Trafford Centre.
