Tiffany and Co. has unveiled Hidden Garden, the spring installment of its 2026 Blue Book high jewellery collection.
Designed by Nathalie Verdeille, the range focuses on floral and animal motifs, drawing on the archives of former designer Jean Schlumberger.
The collection features 10 distinct themes, including ‘Butterfly’, ‘Bird on a Rock’, and ‘Bee’.
The pieces utilise a variety of unenhanced gemstones, such as padparadscha and Montana sapphires, Zambian emeralds, and Mozambique rubies.
Several items, including pendants and necklaces, are designed to be transformable and can be worn as brooches.
The Monarch story draws from a storied Jean Schlumberger necklace featuring a hidden monarch butterfly, where twisting vines and sculpted foliage are reimagined through handcrafted platinum, 18k yellow gold and pavé diamond elements.
Nestled within leaves are cushion-cut sapphires from Sri Lanka and Madagascar. The set also includes emerald-cut diamond earrings of more than 10 carats. The set also features platinum and gold woven together.
The collection also makes use of legacy gemstones associated with the house, such as kunzite and Brazilian aquamarines.
Additionally, The Paradise Bird story continues this avian narrative through a series of brooches.
Each creation features a fantastical bird poised atop a gemstone, including Mexican fire opal, Brazilian rubellite, Ethiopian blue chalcedony or Madagascan spessartine.
The feathers of the bird unfold through gemstones that are arranged to match the central stone, using combinations of emerald, turquoise, tsavorite, and diamonds.
The other stories include The Bee, Jasmine, Marguerite, Bloom, The Twin Bud and Palm.
The spring expression will debut at a private event on 16 April 2026. This is the fourth Blue Book collection overseen by Verdeille and will be released in three phases throughout the year.
Anthony Ledru, chief executive of Tiffany and Co., said: “Blue Book 2026: Hidden Garden reflects our continued commitment to creativity, craft and the highest standards of gemology.
“This collection honors the legacy of Jean Schlumberger while demonstrating how we continue to evolve it for today’s high jewelry client.”
