Elsa Peretti started her glorious path in 1969, after creating a successful design for a perfume bottle. Five years later she signed a contract with Tiffany & Co. as a jewelry designer. Their collaboration, which is still widely popular, was taking place until the 2010s.
Elsa Peretti style is called biomorphic as they were inspired by such natural shapes as pebbles and bones. She was captivated by simplicity and once famously described her process as “Take away, take away.”
The Mesh collection is one of Peretti’s most popular creations. It has its place among The Bone Cuff and The Bottle Pendant.
Mesh collection Peretti was introduced to the public in 1975 as the gold scarves collection. Later on, in the 2000s Tiffany & Co. launched a limited-edition Mesh capsule collection. The fabric-like looking gold collars are wearable in many ways and are as timeless as they are versatile.
