Jean Schlumberger by Tiffany Bird on a Rock Blue Gradient, 39 mm watch, Tiffany & Co.
An exceptional timepiece inspired by iconic jewellery designs by Jean Schlumberger. Introduced in 1965, the Bird on a Rock brooch is one of Tiffany & Co.’s most emblematic creations. Over the years, it has been reinterpreted with a variety of differently coloured gemstones. A symbol of joy and optimism inspired by the yellow cockatoo, the diamond-encrusted bird now perches on the dial of the Jean Schlumberger by Tiffany Bird on a Rock Blue Gradient. Invisibly attached to the outer ring of the dial, which spins freely with every gesture of the wearer’s wrist, the signature bird recreates the sense of movement that is characteristic of Jean Schlumberger’s indelible creations. Cased in 18k white gold, this 39 mm model is presented with a diamond centre dial with a rainbow of 36 baguette-cut sapphires, blue topazes and emeralds on the outer ring. To create the bird, a jeweller must first sculpt the gold form by hand, then set it with diamonds and a pink sapphire for the eye. This process spans over 24 hours. The caseback is engraved with a sunburst pattern inspired by Jean Schlumberger’s Floral Arrows brooch, which is highlighted by a sprinkling of diamonds. To enable the outer ring to rotate freely, an ingenious ball bearing mechanism was developed and the rings are precisely weighted so that the movement of the bird is perfectly synchronized with those of the wearer’s wrist. A fine Swiss self-winding movement powers the model, which has a classic time-setting and winding crown. The design of the crown was inspired by the iconic Tiffany® Setting, made famous by the House’s diamond solitaire engagement rings, and features a prong-set solitaire diamond of more than 0.45 carat.
