In partnership with Ion Orchard, Tatler hosted an intimate evening at the Tiffany & Co boutique celebrating Jean Schlumberger’s enduring artistry
In partnership with Ion Orchard, Tatler Singapore recently hosted an intimate evening at the Tiffany & Co boutique, where guests were transported into the imaginative world of Jean Schlumberger—one of the 20th century’s most gifted jewellery designers. That evening on August 28 was a celebration not only of craftsmanship, but also of the fantasy, romance, and storytelling that continue to define Tiffany & Co’s jewellery creations today.
The evening began with opening remarks by Annabel Tan, editor, watches and jewellery, of Tatler Singapore, and Nafeesa Saini, features editor of Tatler Singapore. Together, they introduced the showcase—six spectacular looks styled by Tatler and modelled in rotation to allow each ensemble to take centre stage.

While sipping champagne and savouring caviar canapés, guests were treated to a first-hand presentation of Tiffany & Co’s latest jewels. Each look was rooted in Schlumberger’s enduring obsessions with nature, movement, texture, and romance.
The presentations unfolded as a journey through six Schlumberger stories, beginning with an exclusive early preview of the Tiffany & Co’s new Wings collection. Expanding on the iconic Bird on a Rock motif, the collection explored not just stillness—birds perched serenely on gemstones—but also motion, with creations that captured wings mid-flight. Lovebird pendants, sculptural rings and diamond-set bangles demonstrated the artistry of turning nature into abstraction, of transforming stillness into freedom.

From there, the showcase moved to Sixteen Stone, a design first introduced in 1959 as a wedding ring and inspired by Schlumberger’s Alsatian textile heritage. Its cross-stitch motifs, symbolic of strength and unity, were reimagined in platinum, yellow gold and diamonds across a 72-stone necklace and 36-stone bracelet, elevating a personal emblem of love into statement jewels for today.
Closing the showcase was a vivid tribute to Schlumberger’s bold use of colour and texture with his enamel bracelets and rope rings. First created in 1962, the enamel designs glowed with luminous depth thanks to the painstaking paillonné technique, while the rope rings recalled his family’s roots in textiles, weaving braids and twists into precious metal. Taken together, they reflected Schlumberger’s genius for transforming everyday inspirations into playful, timeless fantasy.
