Elsa Peretti for Tiffany & Co. Nephrite and Black Jade Cuff, 1980s

A gesture of movement, frozen in stone.

This sculptural cuff by Elsa Peretti for Tiffany & Co. captures the essence of her design language—organic, sensual, and quietly radical. Two sweeping leaves, one carved from deep nephrite, the other from inky black jade, curve toward one another in an asymmetrical embrace. Joined by an 18k gold hinge, the piece is bold in scale yet fluid in line—Peretti’s signature paradox.

A rare collector’s object from one of jewelry’s most poetic modernists.

For the woman who sees sculpture in shadow.
