The Tiffany & Co. Elsa Peretti Tear Drop collection is one of the designer’s most celebrated expressions of organic form—transforming a simple droplet shape into a symbol of fluidity, elegance, and timeless femininity. These 18K gold diamond-set pierced earrings embody Peretti’s philosophy that jewellery should feel sculptural, natural, and effortlessly wearable, making them enduring icons within the Tiffany archive.
This pair combines several highly desirable attributes: solid 18K gold construction, diamond accents, and the iconic Elsa Peretti design pedigree. Unlike more commonly encountered silver Tear Drop pieces, precious metal and diamond-set versions occupy a significantly more elevated tier within the collection. Presented in mint condition, these earrings deliver both luxury and versatility, transitioning seamlessly from everyday wear to formal occasions. Given the intrinsic value of the gold and diamonds alone, this represents an exceptionally attractive acquisition relative to replacement cost and material content.
WLCSG curator note:
Elsa Peretti's designs have always been about achieving maximum elegance with minimal form. The diamond-set Tear Drop earrings are a perfect example—they feel understated until you look closer at the craftsmanship, precious materials, and rarity of the configuration. At this level, the value proposition becomes difficult to ignore, especially considering the combination of solid gold, diamonds, and one of Tiffany’s most iconic designer collections.
