Emblematic of the dawn of a new day, the unprecedented global exhibition brought hopeful glimpses of \u201cThe World of Tomorrow\u201d to life in dazzling displays. Fantastic and futuristic visions of art and innovation delighted international visitors and locals alike.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">There, as guests watched in anticipation, exhibitors at the unique affair showcased fascinating feats of technology never before seen. What else sparked interest? Curious onlookers were captivated by Tiffany &amp; Co.\u2019s extravagant display, including a luxurious 429-diamond necklace featuring a singular 200-carat aquamarine gem. Millions gathered to behold the spectacle ahead of the opening of Tiffany\u2019s flagship store on 57<sup>th<\/sup> Street and Fifth Avenue in Manhattan.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, that indelible historic moment has come full circle: Tiffany is reimagining the iconic World\u2019s Fair necklace in all its original splendour, but with an elevated twist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the centrepiece, the high jewellery house acquired an over-80-carat, internally flawless oval diamond to recreate the stunning piece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What\u2019s more, the extraordinary gemstone will be unveiled at the anticipated reopening of the transformed Tiffany Fifth Avenue flagship store, making history once again. Talk about making a grand entrance \u2013 or in this case, <em>re-entrance<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhat better way to mark the opening of our transformed Tiffany flagship in 2022 than to reimagine this incredible necklace from the 1939 World\u2019s Fair, one of our most celebrated pieces when we opened our doors on 57th Street and Fifth Avenue for the first time,\u201d said Victoria Wirth Reynolds, Tiffany &amp; Co. Chief Gemmologist. \u201cThe World\u2019s Fair Necklace perfectly reflects our brand heritage as a New York luxury jeweller whose founder was known as the \u2018King of Diamonds\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>A One-of-a-Kind Gem<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This remarkable gem represents Tiffany\u2019s largest diamond acquisition since obtaining the exquisite 128.54-carat Tiffany Diamond back in 1878. \u00a0\u00a0Unlike the legendary Tiffany Diamond, which is famously not for sale, this exquisite stone will be set in a necklace that is expected to be Tiffany\u2019s most expensive piece yet. With an estimated price tag in the tens of millions, the necklace and its over-80-carat diamond are far from ordinary. Sourced from Botswana, Africa, the exceptional centre stone symbolizes the brand\u2019s industry-first approach to traceability, making it not only a rare jewel, but also a responsible one. Our New York City artisans will meticulously set the diamond in its new yet historic home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/WFN-AquaAndDiaNecklaceNY1939.jpg\" rel=\"mfp\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/WFN-AquaAndDiaNecklaceNY1939.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3679 lazyload\" width=\"472\" height=\"593\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/WFN-AquaAndDiaNecklaceNY1939.jpg 600w, https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/WFN-AquaAndDiaNecklaceNY1939-239x300.jpg 239w, https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/WFN-AquaAndDiaNecklaceNY1939-450x566.jpg 450w, https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/WFN-AquaAndDiaNecklaceNY1939-20x25.jpg 20w, https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/WFN-AquaAndDiaNecklaceNY1939-225x283.jpg 225w, https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/WFN-AquaAndDiaNecklaceNY1939-76x96.jpg 76w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 472px) 100vw, 472px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>World\u2019s Fair Necklace Archival Image<br><strong>Photo Credit:<\/strong> Tiffany &amp; Co.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A beacon of light in dark times, the World\u2019s Fair debuted in 1939 in New York City amid the shadow of the Great Depression.
