Tiffany & Co. and Daniel Arsham Unveil Limited-Edition Sculpture and Necklace
The ongoing creative dialogue between legendary jeweler Tiffany & Co. and celebrated contemporary artist Daniel Arsham has resulted in their latest collaborative endeavor: The Bronze Eroded Penny Vessel and an accompanying Limited-Edition Tiffany & Arsham Studio HardWear Necklace. This partnership, building on previous successes since 2021, once again showcases a remarkable fusion of fine art and exquisite jewelry.
At the heart of this collection is The Bronze Eroded Penny Vessel, a masterpiece that embodies Arsham’s signature “future relic” aesthetic. Inspired by Tiffany’s historical 1885 redesign of the Great Seal of the United States and Arsham’s own “Study of the Eroded Penny,” this patinated bronze sculpture reimagines an ordinary penny as an ancient artifact. Each vessel is meticulously handcrafted and finished at Arsham Studio in New York City, with embedded crystals that appear to break through the aged patina, creating a striking contrast that speaks to the passage of time and the beauty of decay. With only 39 handcrafted sculptures in the limited-edition series, each piece is exceptionally exclusive.
Hidden within each Bronze Eroded Penny Vessel is the ultimate treasure: a limited-edition Tiffany & Arsham Studio HardWear necklace. This bespoke piece draws inspiration from a necklace in the Tiffany archives dating back to 1962 and is crafted in 18k white gold, meticulously handset with over 1,000 diamonds and 500 tsavorites. The use of tsavorites, a Tiffany legacy gemstone, subtly nods to both the bronze patina of the vessel and Arsham Studio’s preferred green hue.
Each of these extraordinary works is delivered in a custom-made Tiffany Blue art-handling crate, complete with a matching blue box and dual-branded white gloves, emphasizing its status as both a work of art and a valuable collectible. This collaboration continues to push the boundaries of luxury, transforming an everyday symbol of value—the penny—into a powerful emblem of luck, luxury, and timeless artistry.
