Tiffany gets tough

Tiffany needs no introduction. Its legacy of dainty diamonds and charms, hanging off the necks and wrists of so many women, is known across the globe. That quaint image, though, is about to be toughened up a bit, with a new line that was revealed in Tokyo at the end of July.

Simply called T, the new pieces feature industrial elements, such as chains and hardware-cum-jewelry styles, but with a twist of modernity and sophistication. The use of Tiffany's signature mirror-silver and rose gold also keeps it in line with the brand's famous aesthetic.
