JENNIFER LOPEZ SPARKLED as one of the best dressed at the 2024 MET Gala. She evoked perfection from head to toe in her Schiaparelli Haute Couture gown, which she spoke about on the red carpet. But for jewelry aficionados, the Tiffany & Co recent High Jewelry Blue Book pieces not only coordinated effortlessly with the gown but stole the spotlight of Lopez’s look. They also spoke to the theme of the exhibition: “Sleeping Beauties: Awakening Fashion.” These Tiffany Celéste Collection styles (the centerpiece of which was the necklace Lopez wore) were a homage to the uber-talented Tiffany designer Jean Schlumberger, whose jewelry was inspired by all forms of nature throughout his career. The Celéste pieces were designed by Nathalie Verdeille, chief artistic director of jewelry and high jewelry for Tiffany & Co., and referenced Schlumberger’s aesthetic — in effect, an awakening of the past.

The necklace Lopez wore is set in platinum and 18K yellow gold and was comprised of over 75 TCW of diamonds, with the center diamond weighing approximately 20 carats. She wore the matching bracelet as well as earrings in platinum, 18K yellow gold and diamonds, also from the Blue Book 2024: Tiffany Celéste Collection. On her finger, she wore a Jean Schlumberger by Tiffany Bird on a Rock ring in platinum and 18k yellow gold with a fancy intense yellow diamond of over four carats, a white diamond of over four carats, pink sapphires and diamonds.

Needless to say, Lopez, one of the world’s most famous celebrities, showed her ability to look the part in swoon-worthy jewels and gown.

You Wouldn’t Cut Your Own Hair. Why Run Your Own Retirement Sale?

After being in business for over a quarter of a century, Wayne Reid, owner of Wayne Jewelers in Wayne, Pennsylvania, decided it was time for a little “me time.” He says, “I’ve reached a point in my life where it’s time to slow down, enjoy a lot of things outside of the jewelry industry. It just seemed to be the right time.” He chose Wilkerson to handle his retirement sale because of their reputation and results. With financial goals exceeded, Reid says he made the right choice selecting Wilkerson to handle the sale. “They made every effort to push our jewelry to the forefront of the showcases,” he says, lauding Wilkerson for their finesse and expertise. Would he recommend them to other jewelers who want to make room for new merchandise, expand their business or like him, decide to call it a day? Absolutely he says, equating trying to do this kind of sale with cutting your own hair. “The results are going to happen but not as well as if you have a professional like Wilkerson do the job for you.”
