Tilda's Bow

A silk bow, freshly tied by hand, rebuilt in rows of round and baguette diamonds, each baguette cut individually to follow the curve of a loop.

Two Jean Schlumberger Sixteen Stone rings, one in 18k yellow gold and platinum and one in platinum, round diamonds held by small crossed Xs, on a Tiffany Blue ground.

Jean Schlumberger by Tiffany Sixteen Stone

Pairs of round diamonds held in place by small gold Xs, like cross-stitches, so the band reads as stones threaded together with metal.

Graff's Tilda's Bow is a knot of silk translated into stones: rows of round and baguette diamonds loop out from a knotted centre, each baguette cut on its own to follow the curve. Sixteen Stone, which Jean Schlumberger designed for Tiffany in 1959, sets round diamonds in pairs under little gold crosses, as if stitched to the band. In each, diamonds stand in for fabric, though the London ring copies a finished bow and the New York ring the stitches that hold a seam.
