Each Bird on a Rock brooch is created by a team of Tiffany artisans who bring years of experience and the utmost passion to their craft. More than eight artisans work together to bring a single brooch to life over the span of 50 hours, a testament to the spirit of exceptional craftsmanship that has defined Tiffany for nearly two centuries.
“In 2023, we unveiled the first Bird on a Rock collection: a full suite of designs inspired by the iconic brooch. With the new pendants, necklaces, rings, earrings and brooches, the signature bird comes to life, depicted in different stances and in flight, lending a sense of motion and surrealism like only Jean Schlumberger could” Said, Tiffany & Co. Now, again highlighted!
Tiffany unveiled the design at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs’ Jean Schlumberger retrospective in Paris. Its fame grows as it travels the world on exhibition. Today, over 25 years later, the bird and the fiery yellow diamond meet again in a transformable pendant. Designed to celebrate the momentous reopening of The Landmark on Fifth Avenue in 2023, the new transformable creation reimagines the iconic brooch and features five birds that flutter around the diamond, signaling a new era for the brand.
The Bird on a Rock brooch became truly iconic in 1995, when the House mounted its legendary Tiffany Diamond onto the designer’s whimsical setting. This decision to unite the bird and the 128.54-carat yellow diamond was a celebration of two audacious dreamers: Jean Schlumberger and founder Charles Lewis Tiffany.
For over half a century, the Jean Schlumberger by Tiffany Bird on a Rock brooch has epitomized joy, freedom and possibilities. Tiffany & Co. first introduced Jean Schlumberger’s emblematic creation in 1965. Ever since, Bird on a Rock has maintained its timeless allure and evolved into a world of exceptional creations inspired by the original. Today, the iconic Tiffany Diamond lives in a transformable design inspired by the Bird on a Rock.
Tiffany & Co. formally introduced Jean Schlumberger by Tiffany Bird on a Rock in 1965. The visionary artist was inspired by a yellow cockatoo that he encountered on his travels abroad to Asia and the Caribbean—notably, his beloved home in Guadeloupe. One of the first Bird on a Rock brooch was purchased by socialite Bunny Mellon. Her Bird on a Rock featured a cabochon lapis lazuli with yellow and white diamonds.
