Tiffany & Co. Unveils Blue Book 2025: Sea of Wonder, A Dreamlike High Jewelry Collection inspired by the ocean’s boundless beauty.
Tiffany & Co. recently released its stunning Blue Book 2025: Sea of Wonder high jewellery collection that pays a fitting homage to the charm and mystery of the ocean.
Designed by Nathalie Verdeille, Chief Artistic Officer of Jewelry and High Jewelry, the collection veers towards surreal magic – moving from the figurative to the abstract—inspired by Jean Schlumberger’s legendary aquatic designs.
Diving deep into the depths of the ocean, the limited edition pieces draw inspiration from the inexhaustible variety of flora and fauna.
The jewels, “painted” with an evocative colour palette that illustrates the kaleidoscopic shimmer of underwater light and the bioluminescent ballets of oceanic creatures, the collection reimagines the beauty of the deep through Nathalie Verdeille’s creative perspective.
“Each piece in our latest Blue Book collection, Sea of Wonder, invites us to lose ourselves in the rich storytelling as we embark on a journey through uncharted realms of the deep sea,” says Verdeille.
“While each creation weaves a story of the ocean and its wonders, these extraordinary pieces also tell a broader narrative of the House’s love of pushing boundaries, our relentless pursuit of that which has never been done before, and the spirit of extraordinary savoir faire that has defined Tiffany & Co. since 1837. Drawing inspiration from Jean Schlumberger’s fascination with the sea, our House’s pioneering spirit endures, driving us to reinvent archival inspirations from a modern perspective.”
Each piece is a testament to the brand’s inventive design and craftsmanship, to evoke the lush world of oceanic plants.
The splendiferous necklace resplendent with Zambian emeralds—that seemingly float atop a garden of diamonds.
The Seahorse chapter, inspired by Jean Schlumberger’s iconic 1968 brooches, reimagines these creatures with a contemporary twist. Fluted moonstones and an intricate arrangement of coloured gemstones, including zircons and sapphires, add texture and contrast, bringing these mythical beings to life.
The Sea Turtle designs feature diamond-encrusted patterns and intricate gold details.
A standout design, the Sea Turtle pendant, features a hidden mechanism that transforms the piece from pendant to brooch, reflecting the turtle’s journey from land to sea.
The Starfish chapter deconstructs and reinterprets the graceful creature into high jewellery with celestial overtones. Utilising unique cutting techniques, each piece offers sculptural complexity, with Mozambican rubies and diamonds accented by 18-karat yellow gold, rose-cut diamonds and pavé diamonds.
Paillonné enamelling—a 19th-century technique that Jean Schlumberger is credited with revitalising—adds a delicate, thorny texture to the designs while capturing the iridescent essence of the sea.
Lastly, the Wave chapter celebrates the dramatic movement of the ocean through powerful, sculptural designs. The breathtaking Wave necklace evokes the opulence of a crashing wave, featuring diamonds and vivid blue cuprian elbaite tourmalines totalling over 17 carats. The piece is inspired by the voluminous forms and dynamic motion found in Schlumberger’s famous Leaves Necklace.
